| | Update on New Yeah Shanghai | | 2008-05-06 08:38:00 | | We just went to New Yeah Shanghai New Yeah Shanghai last night for my dad's birthday. It was my favorite place for soup dumplings for a long time but the reign has ended. Sadly, the dough is now thicker, the meat a bit stiffer. The dough on the pork and chive dumplings has gotten too thick as well. The other dishes we got were mostly too salty but still meets the average Chinatown standard, which is pretty good. But in the end, without the super soup dumplings, Lon and I agreed, they were no longer special. You could eat anywhere in Chinatown for a similar meal.We asked the host on our way out if the chef or owner had changed. He told us that the chef was the owner and nothing had changed. Perhaps it was a fluke but none of use were convinced that it was really the same place. All five of us noticed a difference and each of us had eaten here so many times.Let's take a moment of silence for the fallen soup dumplings. | | By: FoodMayhem | | |

"Usually March is the month when transaction volume would begin to pick up quite significantly after the traditional slack January and February when Spring Festival usually falls."

The fresh handmade dough is perfectly chewy, not too thin and not too thick. We had Soup Dumplings (above, to the left), Pork and Chive Dumplings, and Vegetable Dumplings (right). I loved all three.Another dish we always order is the Crab, Sauteed with Minced Pork, Soy Beans, and Rice Cakes (shown left). This time the rice cakes were incredible.Fish Head Soup (shown right) is one of my favorite Shanghainese dishes.The flavor of the soup was rich, as it should be, and the tofu and mung bean noodle sheets are standard necessary ingredients. The size of the fish head was a bit smaller than what we've had at other restaurants though.My mother noticed a new dish posted on their board. Pork (with bone) wrapped in some sticky rice, then wrapped in bamboo leaves and steamed. I thought it was a wonderful twist on a traditional food called Dzong Dtz (which is kind of like a Chinese Tamale made with sticky rice).Ok, so the post wasn't that short but one more thing: we took a video of the Sizzling Beef and Scallop dish so you could see the sizzling.

| | Shanghai - Quick Guide | | 2007-11-28 13:36:00 | | Shanghai, a vigorous and energetic international metro-polis, welcomes people from all over the world to enjoy its special atmosphere. This modern metropolis with its rich heritage of ancient Chinese culture has much to see and do.The Oriental Pearl TV Tover is the modern symbol of Shanghai City. Standing beside the Huangpu River with a height of 468 meters (1536 feet), it is the tallest TV tower in Asia and the third highest in the world. This unusual structure that dominates the skyline is a great attraction to tourists. Nanjing Road is considered to be the "No. 1 commercial street in China". Here along its 5.5 kilometers (3.4 miles), you will find over 600 shops that on average are visited by some 1.7 million people each day. If you like shopping, do not miss it!Yuyuan Garden is the largest of Shanghai's ancient gardens with architectural styles of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The garden has six areas, each with its own style. The Grand Rockery, in the center of the Garden, is the most renowned sight here. Shanghai Museum is a veritable treasure house of ancient Chinese art and houses 120,000 precious relics. Bronzes, pottery, paintings and calligraphies are distinctive features of the Museum's collection. Seen from above, the Museum resembles a large bronze mirror of the Han Dynasty (206BC -220).

| | Shanghai Property Back in Vogue | | 2007-07-28 01:19:00 | | A government clampdown on construction of luxury apartments is combining with loose enforcement of limits on property investment by foreigners to send Shanghai property prices sharply higher after two years of stagnancy. The Shanghai government increased the tax on property sales in early 2005, following nearly three years in which hot money, looking to benefit from China's booming economic growth and a then-anticipated increase in the value of the yuan, poured into the luxury real-estate market. The stream of funds caused the price of some luxury apartments to soar. Since the tax increase was implemented, such prices have barely kept pace with inflation.

China, a state run by engineers, is a builder's paradise, where almost no expense is spared for infrastructure.

Along for the hunt were our new friends Kate & Jesse. Jessica and I remember a wonderful place where we had eaten with her family and longed to return. We couldn't remember the name or the address, but knew they had great soup dumplings, a crappy-looking entrance way, and a bridge inside (which is not visible from the street).
