The tourist shopping district next to the YuYuan Garden houses some of the more well-known traditional food shops in Shanghai.
Shen Da Cheng, which had various forms of addictive glutinous rice dumplings. Get them hot and freshly made for breakfast. They were very good. They also had packaged version for gifting that one could bring back home. Or, just get them on Weee! in the US.
That’s what I got.
The Shanghai Chopstick Shop, with chopsticks made from various grades of wood. One could also get chopsticks with your own name laser engraved.
The famed White Rabbit candy shop made an appearance.
1920 Shanghai cool.
