The way to eat in Shanghai (read and learn, ladies.)
Go to the random stores by the roadsides. They look dirty and not-very-tasty but then you'll realize that 1 out of 5 families in China know how to make perfect xiaolongbao and other stuff, and 99 percent of these families open roadside stores. Alternatively, you can go to the restaurants and spend 5x the price. XD
Note: One bowl of beef lamien in Singapore costs the price of THIRTEEN bowls in Shanghai, and you'll still have 50 cents left over. And three bowls of these noodles is enough to feed four people, when one of them is ME with my appetite.
Oh, and xiaolongbao. One baskets of 8 xiaolongbao costs singapore 60 cents or 30 cents, depending on where you eat them. Yeah. Haha, I ate about 30 for lunch yesterday, since I bought 4 baskets. (I rounded up.)
Then there's the meat mooncakes, which are such love. I ate ten of them for breakfast today. XD
Then I went to this wedding, where it was all vegetarian, so I spent the whole two hours eating waffles dipped in melted chocolate. Like, I'm in heaven. Seriously. They have a fountain as tall as me of CHOCOLATE. Yumm. Now I know why the angels are always so chubby.
Anyway. I'm going to grow fat. Gahhh. I plan to go on a diet after returning to Singapore. (Like I'll carry it through.)
As for those in Singapore aren't you jealous? Says to spite mel. Nyah nyah nyah. I have goooooooood foooooooooood!
