🔍Gourmet Examples

⚫︎Chinese deli: roast duck, char siu, shumai, spring rolls, etc.

⚫︎Snacks and sweets: traditional Chinese sweets (mooncakes, mung bean paste sweets, etc.), nuts, dried fruits.

⚫︎Specialties: famous products and seasonings from Shanghai and the Jiangnan region (dark soy sauce, vinegar, doubanjiang, etc.) are also abundantly available.

⚫︎Souvenirs: individually wrapped sweets and dim sum are convenient for travelers to take home.

Despite its location, many items are reasonably priced. The egg tart in the photo was priced in the 100 yen range 🍰

Also, the staff basically speak only Chinese, but since it is close to tourist spots, they seem accustomed to handling simple English and gestures.

It is recommended to stop by as a light snack spot when you get a little hungry while walking along Nanjing Road, or when you want to buy Shanghai souvenirs in bulk.

It can get somewhat crowded around midday on weekdays and on weekends, but it is basically not too crowded and easy to stop by.
