Meet your adventurous foodie guide at Huangpi Road Station (Shanghai Metro Line 1), and venture to the residential area starting from the famous Huaihai Road. You will first go to the Dingtele restaurant (in Shanghai dialog means fantastic) hidden in local compound through the alleyways. Satisfy your appetite with mouthwatering noodles. Those aromatic flavors include sesame paste, scallion oil, braised meat sauce along with deep fried schnitzel, shredded shitake mushrooms and scallops.

Later, go for a stroll around 15 minutes along the main Changle Road, a street filled with not only locals but also new immigrants.

During noon time, you will see some office white collars enjoy their lunch here, some retired locals might prepare their cooking ingredients or play mahjong, and some young students share the snacks after schools. You will be surrounded in local atmosphere, and your native Shanghai guide will share some interesting local stories to you along the way.

Your last stop is to enjoy different types of wonton right by South Shan'xi road. Shanghai cuisine makes a clear distinction between small and large wonton. You can choose either the filling with shrimp or veggie with minced pork.
