This circa 1930 building was the British Consulate before it underwent a three-year makeover. Its historic character is paired with a menu of traditional Shanghainese dishes, including many heritage recipes rarely found elsewhere. When in season, their decadent dishes of hairy crab roe and crabmeat picked fresh on the day are simply unmissable. No meal is complete without a starch course drenched in Shanghai flair, like xiao long bao or noodles tossed in scallion oil.
