Description

This Shanghai surprise has been largely overlooked. Its forte is dishes at the lower end of the menu, making this the perfect place to gorge on soup dumplings (a/k/a "tiny juicy buns") in three varieties. Pick the steamed ones with crab. Also sporting plenty of crustaceans are braised e-fu noodles with crab and young chives, heartily recommended. Of the mid- and upper-end stuff, select shredded eel ninplo ("fisherman") style and braised pork shoulder, the first $12.95 dish you come to on the untranslated Chinese menu. Point to it.

  • 2006 | Studliest soup dumplings

    Shanghai cuisine--with its braised pork shoulders, lion's-head meatballs, drunken chicken, mock-meat appetizing buffets, and, most especially, soup dumplings--blew into town a decade ago and has been on the decline ever since. How wonderful, then, that our best purveyor of Shanghai-style dumplings should have appeared only recently in Chinatown. Shanghai Café turns out perfect soup dumplings right in its front window--twisted and puckered and capable of retaining their... More »

  • 2005 | Niftiest Chinese Noodles

    Rather than focusing on, say, lion's mane meatballs and fatty pork shank, SHANGHAI CAFÉ is the first of its sort predisposed to noodles, soups, and over-rice dishes, in addition to credible soup dumplings ("steamed tiny buns with crab meat and pork") and soul-satisfying casseroles. More »
