Xiao Long Bao – Steamed Pork Dumpling

Highlights from our dinner at New Shanghai included New Shanghai’s famous dumplings, including the xiao longbao, a mini steamed pork bun with gingery-sweet broth and a juicy pocket of pork made using a secret familyrecipe; and the pan-fried pork bun, a New Shanghai delicacy made using a generations-old family technique.

Sheng Jian Bao – Pan Fried Pork Bun

While many Chinese restaurants in Melbourne serve the Sheng Jian Bao, New Shanghai’s variety are a cut above.The skin of the fried dumplings possessed the perfect thickness and signature crispy and fluffy texture withoutbeing overly doughy. The Ground pork and chopped cabbage filling was well seasoned and each bun possessed awonderfully golden, crispy bottom.

Shepherd’s Purse & Pork Wonton with Red chilli Oil & Peanut Sauce

The Shepherd’s Purse & Pork Wonton was yet another highlight. We loved the velvety wonton pastry which wasbeautiful in texture and the accompanying sea of sweet soy, peanut sauce and dried chilli was pleasantlyappetising. Cooked with the perfect amount of heat, these wontons tantalised our taste buds.

Salt & Peppered Soft Shell Crab

The Salt & Peppered Soft Shell Crab was amazing. The deep fried crustacean pieces were coated in a semi-thickcrisp batter that encapsulated firm, sweet flesh. With a touch of fried garlic and a myriad of spices, it was simplysuperb.

The Braised Pork Belly with Sweet Soy Sauce was comfort food at its best. It was a well-conceived dish that tookfull advantage of the pork belly’s most notable characteristic – its supple fatty meat. The unctuous pieces of porkwere creamy and melted in our mouths.

Fragrant & Crispy Duck with Steamed Bun

The dish of Fragrant & Crispy Duck with Steamed Bun had us fighting for the last morsel. The fluffy and moist bunswere a lovely canvas for the velvety duck flesh and its perfectly crisp skin.

Dessert - Shaved Ice with Seasonal Fresh Fruit

New Shanghai is a gem of a place for casual dining. With its superb execution of Shanghainese cuisine andaffordable pricing, there is no doubt that New Shanghai will soon be a firmly entrenched Melbourne dininginstitution.
