Shanghai Uncle ♥ ♥ ♥

 

For our last meal in Shanghai, we decided to eat just around the corner from our hotel before we head to the airport.

I usually do not like it when they mess with the traditional, but this Uncle did it really well. I find myself enjoying the creative twists he made to classic Shanghainese staples. 

Everything we ordered was delicious.
