It domineeringly occupies an entire building and is also the residence of a celebrity (one of the residences of Song Ailing, one of the three sisters of the Song family, and her husband Kong Xiangxi). It is a small western-style house with an independent garden. From the outside, you can feel the atmosphere of Shanghai-style culture. The double-sloped herringbone roof is covered with red tiles, the yellow walls, and the log-colored lacquered door are extremely magnificent. Push the door and enter, and the retro and nostalgic decoration atmosphere blows on your face. On the first floor, there are old photos full of memories of Zheng Kai’s family. And everywhere you look, there must be many “old objects”, especially this antique gramophone of great value. There are a total of 7 unique private rooms in the restaurant. The largest private room can accommodate about eight people to dine at the same time. In addition, there are also scattered seats on the first and second floors. It is convenient for two to four friends to come together. The dining environment is not inferior at all. When you dine here, you will find that in addition to each uniquely decorated private room (quiet and elegant, western-style simplicity, advocating nature and other environments), the terrace is also a major highlight. It complements the strong historical sense of the building itself and sets off a quiet and romantic atmosphere, allowing you to be immersed in a romantic and warm time and be full of nostalgia. The revolving staircase and the time-worn carpet. As you ascend the stairs, it seems as if you are traveling through time and space and returning to old Shanghai in the last century.

[Delicacies] #Nine-grid Seasoning# The nine-grid presentation is beautiful, consisting of celery leaves, celery, scallions, peppers, mashed garlic, etc. Choose seasonings according to your own taste. #Pre-meal Fruits# Pineapple and grapes. Eating fruits is not the more the better. Eat them in season. The amount of this plate of fruits is just right. #Dry Red Drunken Plum Shrimp# The bright red shrimp bodies are presented on the table surrounded by a large pile of dry ice. After taking pictures with clicks, pairs of chopsticks seemingly with eyes all reach for this must-have internet-famous crayfish that has been cultivating and growing after a spring. Each one is plump and strong. After rolling around in drunken plum blossoms for several rounds, it gathers all flavors and waits respectfully for me to peel it layer by layer and suck out the essence. #Truffle and Beef Lotus Root Sandwich# The thick appearance is very satisfying. Coupled with the unique refreshing fragrance of lotus root, it already seems delicious before eating. When you take a bite, it is smooth and tender. And when you bite down, there is a feeling of bursting juice. The more you chew, the more addictive it is. #Spicy Crispy Chicken Cartilage# The slightly meaty cartilage is wrapped in light yellow flour. After chewing, it is crispy and can be eaten with the bone. #Signature Clam and Lobster Soup Base# Clams, which have the reputation of being the freshest in the world, are a low-calorie and high-protein food. Use this as the soup base and add red king crabs. After being simmered for N hours, it is fragrant. Before cooking dishes, have a bowl first. After taking a sip, the mouth is filled with an endless aftertaste of freshness. #Imperial Shark Fin Thick Soup Base# Select black pork, free-range old chickens from northern Jiangsu, fish maw, shark fin, and chicken feet and carefully simmer for a full ten hours. In this way, the soup base will become more viscous and rich. At a glance, you can feel the full collagen waving at you. Presumably, no beauty can resist it. #Red King Crab# There are two ways to eat red king crabs. One is as sashimi, and the other is to put it in the soup base we ordered and cook it before eating. The carefully selected red king crabs are different from other crabs. The crab roe and crab paste are full, and the meat is full, tight, delicate, and smooth. No matter which way you eat it, you can not only feel the visual impact but also experience the unique delicious and rich taste of crabs with a long aftertaste. #Sister Ling’s Snowflake Wagyu Beef# The color and appearance are really beautiful. The evenly distributed snowflake patterns show top-notch quality. When you take a bite, the snowflake has a bursting juice texture.

#Hand-Pounded Fresh Crab Meatballs# When served, everyone was captivated by the uniquely shaped and adorable fresh crab meatballs, prompting them to take out their phones and cameras to capture the crab meatballs with an extra ‘horn’ on top. After cooking and tasting, the texture is tender and fresh. #Handmade Tricolor Tofu# The black tofu is infused with sesame, and the green one with spinach. The tricolor tofu is devoid of any beaniness and has a subtle creamy aroma, making it incredibly soft upon tasting. #Dessert – Walnut Sesame Paste# Following the principle of nourishment from within, black food is considered superior. The paste has a delicate and smooth texture with a rich walnut flavor, providing gentle care for the body, easy to digest. Those who understand its benefits consume it, as health is non-negotiable.
