A must-visit Caoyu restaurant on your Shanghai food tour - Jiangbianchengwai (Gangbianchengwai Grilled Whole Fish)

One of the must-try restaurants in Shanghai✅

Easily accessible locations include the Shimao branch on Nanjing East Road and the Jing'an Joy City branch near the Bund.

The Shimao branch on Nanjing East Road, which often appears when searching for "Shanghai Jiangbian City," is undergoing renovations from September 1st to 25th. 🥲
Make sure to check out the Jing'an Joy City branch and head straight to the old town!

📍Gangbian City Grilled Whole Fish (Shanghai Jing'an Da Yue City Nan Zu Branch)
Gangbian City Outside - 8th Floor, Jing'an Joy City Branch

✅️Hours: 10:00 AM - 10:00 PM
✅️Recommended Menu
✔️Half-and-half spicy/garlic
✔️Delicious

Make sure to add the rice cakes!! I ordered half-and-half Mala and half-garlic.

The Mala flavor was full of Hua Jiao peppers, which was appealing.
It was savory and perfect when served with a bowl of rice!

The garlic flavor was colorful with paprika and chili peppers. The generous amount of paprika complemented the juices perfectly. The garlic flakes sprinkled on top were a fantastic addition to the flavor. 💥

✅️Tip
Alipay orders not accepted ❌
WeChat orders accepted ⭕

Payment is also accepted via Alipay!!!

✅️Overall
The Nanjing East Road branch is popular because it's a tourist attraction, but the Jing'an Joy City branch near the Bund is less well-known. It's a great place to enjoy delicious kaoyu and the Bund's night view.😊

If you're visiting Shanghai, I highly recommend kaoyu outside of the riverside area!!
