Shanghai dishes with a twist of Sichuan

I love Shanghai dishes as well as Sichuan dishes.
Never would I have thought New Shanghai would be serving some Sichuan dishes but until the end of April.

While I was waiting for others to arrive, started with the barley water which was warm and soothing.
The syrup is served on the side.

For appetizers, had the chicken marinated with spicy sauce and peanut, Jelly Fish with Spring onion oil, Deep fried eel.
Smoked egg with black truffle sauce.
The deep fried eel was crispy and sweet so I loved it and the Jelly fish was hard and crisp like cartilage in fragrant spring onion oil.
Shanghai meatballs can be served in gravy or soup.
Tried the [Doubled boiled meat ball] which was served in soup.
It was surprising how good it was because it tastes much lighter than gravy and the meat seems leaner..

Next was the [Honey ham] served with steamed bun.
The ham was in this appetizing sweet clear gravy which had lots of osmanthus flowers.
Putting the ham and crispy beancurd in the bun made it a wonderful little sandwich with a crunch.
Now to the new Sichuan stars, the Poached mandarin fish with preserved vegetables which is available until the end of April.
It was the best fish in preserved vegetable I have had so far because I could drink the soup which was full of flavour and the mandarin fish was silky.
Also had the fried crab with assorted peppercorns and chili where you could taste those aromatic Sichuan peppercorns.
Next was the Stir fried kale for a balanced dinner with veggies.
The Steamed pork dumplings and Homemade noodles with minced pork and spicy peanut sauce was the last course before dessert which was really satisfying.
For dessert, it was Steamed yellow bean cakes stuffed with red bean paste and double boiled milk.
I was quite full but the double boiled milk was creamy and nourishing.
Although, the poached fish is available until April, I secretly hope that it will be there permanently.
