上海捷龙酒店

Founded in 1878, this two-storey noodle shop is something of a local landmark thanks to its gilded sign and elaborate façade. Chefs start work at 4am, making noodles and dim sum from scratch. The ground floor serves 20 different noodle and rice dishes, including the famous three-treasure soup noodles (fried eel, fried fish and pork hock). The dining room upstairs offers more comfort and a bigger Shanghainese menu, from soups to hot dishes and dim sum.
