We had something to celebrate and after having read many raving reviews [internal href] of Spanish restaurant El Willy we decided to try them out.
Looking forward to some tapas and paella we were made our way to Donghu Lu. Entering a nicely decorated alley we decided to sit inside. They have a big outdoor […]
On a recent Saturday night I spent my first evening at Cotton’s.
It must have something to do with the fact that I’m not single that I’m still pretty much a Shanghai nightlife virgin or maybe I’m just old.
I enjoyed myself so much, thanks to the many Gin Tonics, that we decided to […]
On Changele Lu you find a lovely hidden garden with tables around it and you can also eat Greek food here. Aegean was recently opened, and is probably the only Greek restaurant in Shanghai. We were in the neighborhood and gave it a try.

The traditional Greek drained plain yogurt sauce that […]
The taxi driver stops and tells us we have arrived. Looking around it’s pretty hard to spot the entrance of Shintori Restaurant. I see a big grey wall but.. hey there is an opening.
Wandering inside reveals a small garden with bamboo at the end of which a door slides open once approached. One […]
It’s been some time since I added a review of a restaurant despite the nice category Shanghai Restaurants.
Last weekend I got inspired again though as we went to Ikea, around 10:30 on a Saturday. I visited this place already a couple of months ago to see what is was like. It was like […]

No anniversary without a special evening including the unavoidable National Miss Hooters Competition which is more or less the Shangai National Miss Hooters […]
I just had dinner but in case you haven’t, take this menu as your inspiration.
The waitress told me later they had used software for the translation.
The terrace of Bar Rouge, part of Bund 18, is a good spot to enjoy the city from the standpoint of an early 20th century citizen, mixed with views on all things modern that Shanghai is building.
I have it in my list of Shanghai favorites for things-to-do when you have a visitor. The view […]
It is nice to sit outside, on an elevated terrace on Nanjing Xi Lu.
During weekdays it will probably be rather smoggy but it was Sunday, sunny and the traffic was low.
Element Fresh Restaurant is on the premises of the Ritz Portman Complex. The interior looks indeed rather fresh and they serve big breakfast […]
We have made it a habit to brunch out in the weekends. Actually we do this for the reader. I mean what better reference than an honest blog…., not as we are rather biased and subjective when it comes down to food.
Sharing my joy or stomach pains with you will from now on happen […]
