The best vegetarian (arguably chinese meal) i've ever been to

Hands down the best vegetarian restaurant I’ve ever been to—and arguably the best Chinese meal I’ve had, period. This spot, Xiang Chun Gu Shi (Jing’an branch), absolutely blew us away with how they bring out the natural flavors of the vegetables in the most delicate, detailed way.

One standout: corn with barley & beans, where each corn skin is peeled (!) and paired with barley & beans for a texture and taste I’ve never experienced before.

This was easily the best meal of our entire trip, and 100% worth a spot on your Shanghai food list.
