The place is Shanghai Street at Kuchai Lama, a cosy Chinese restaurant serving comforting Shanghai-style dishes that feel like a warm hug on a plate. The moment you step in, you’re greeted by the aroma of freshly steamed dumplings and sizzling woks.
Their xiao long bao is the star—delicate skin, juicy broth, and a satisfying bite. The menu also features a variety of noodles, stir-fried dishes, and sides that make it hard to order just one thing. The flavours are rich yet balanced, with that authentic homely touch you’d expect from a Shanghai kitchen.
It’s the kind of place where you gather friends or family, share plates, and leave feeling full and happy.
