Street Food
Shanghai’s street food is excellent and usually quite safe to eat. It generally consists of tiny dumpling and noodle shops along with vendors selling snacks like green onion pancakes (congyou bing), steamed buns (baozi), stinky tofu (chou doufu) and baked sweet potatoes (digua). The city’s food streets are also great places to browse for snacks. Try the following destinations:

Hotpot
A hugely popular winter meal is huoguo (hotpot), with several chain restaurants cornering the market. There are two varieties of hotpot: Sichuan and Mongolian. A typical Sichuan version is the circular yuanyang hotpot, compartmentalised into hot (red) and mild (creamy-coloured) sections, into which you plunge vegetables and meats. Plucking the cooked chunks from the broth, diners dip them in different sauces and then tuck in. It’s a sweat-inducing experience that is best with a group. Mongolian hotpot differ in both appearance and flavour. These are typically a brass pot with a central stove, focusing on thin slices of lamb and vegetables with a nonspicy broth. Again, they are accompanied by sauces.
Ordering for first-timers can be confusing: first you order the stock, then you order the ingredients by ticking off your choices from a long list of items (each with a different price). If there’s no English list, wander to other tables with your server and point to whatever tempts you.
