carol_cai07022022 Start the Michelin journey 2023 Continue the Michelin journey11 The Michelin one-star restaurant in Sinan Mansion is said to have the same owner as Yidao in Bundyuan. I bought a single set meal, which has nine dishes in total, with plenty of portions, and snacks and tangerines placed on the table in advance, which is very cost-effective. It is worth recommending the crispy pigeon, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and has juice; the Chaozhou salted lemon stewed snow plum meat soup, which also contains senbei and longan, is fresh in soup, tender in plum meat, and has a large portion; the chicken sauce and winter melon boiled fish with bamboo shoots, the fish tastes delicious, but the winter melon is a bit too salty; the Xinhui tangerine peel and red bean paste, the tangerine peel tastes too strong and covers the red bean paste...

Francesco BenazziFor the main course, I indulged in the Charred M9 Denver cut beef, a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality and sustainability by primarily sourcing beef from Uruguay, where farming methods allow cattle to roam freely. This exceptional beef showcased a perfect balance of tenderness and bold flavors, expertly prepared to perfection. It was accompanied by an artichoke in three distinct textures: the heart of the artichoke at the base, a creamy artichoke blend in the middle, and crisp young leaves delicately deep-fried on top. This harmonious blend of flavors and textures resulted in a truly remarkable and memorable dish. Pairing it with a tannic Piedmont wine, Accornero Bricco del Bosco 2013, enhanced the experience, with notes of red cherry, raspberry, strawberry jam, and sweet spices, culminating in impeccable balance and outstanding length. Dessert arrived in the form of pumpkin cloves gelato with chestnut flower cream, red plum gel, and pumpkin seed crumble. This sweet creation offered delicate flavors with intriguing clove notes that lingered. To conclude this extraordinary meal, I enjoyed a warm Illy espresso, accompanied by a selection of three Petit fours: mini macaroons with berry coulis, a fake pearl with Sicilian pistachio and raspberry insert, and a delightful chocolate praline with Tonka bean. Overall, my experience at Otto e Mezzo Bombana was nothing short of fantastic. With its Two Michelin stars, this restaurant offers a culinary journey that combines Italian excellence with the enchantment of Shanghai's historical Rock Bund. My bill of 1700RMB was a testament to the quality and luxury that Otto e Mezzo Bombana delivers. It's a dining experience I won't soon forget.

NZD37Shanghai CuisineTime-honored Brand
听足音"Wang Baohe" is a time-honored Chinese brand, famous in the Yangtze River Delta for its crab-related dishes. Wang Baohe Hotel is a five-star hotel, and the Shanghai restaurant on the second floor inherits the characteristics of Wang Baohe's crab feast and crab roe dishes. The restaurant is tall and bright, with exquisite and elegant decoration, making it a good place for high-end banquets. During the Spring Festival, I bought a semi-finished dish gift package launched by "Wang Baohe", including salted chicken, eight-treasure duck, pig's trotters, smoked fish, shrimp, scallops, duck tongue, chicken feet, family portraits and other traditional New Year dishes, as well as his specialty drunken crabs and crab roe. The ingredients are authentic, and the auxiliary ingredients and seasonings have been added. The semi-finished hot dishes only need to be heated and fried at home, and the cold dishes can be thawed, which is very convenient.
