Shanghai: top restaurants

Few cities on earth can match Shanghai for its range and variety of food. Excellent sit-down meals of meat dumplings or soup noodles, with a pot of hot tea, can be had for handful of loose change. Meanwhile, at the high end, the world’s top chefs have flocked to Shanghai, where they have opened elegant flagship venues that serve some of the most refined, delicious and expensive cuisine on the planet. And in the affordable middle lies a rich treasure trove of regional Chinese cuisines and Western selections from around the globe, and many of them are served in surprising venues that could only be found in Shanghai.
