Patrick was an incredible guide with so much knowledge not only for food but any question you had. He made the experience feel like a group of friends were getting together for some food, it was lovely. It didn’t feel like you were walking way too much. The places to eat were at a good distance. The dishes were versatile from noodles to broths to dumplings in different forms and even grilled vegetables. The deserts and beer was very delightful.
Prepare to get full with yummy local shanghai food
