[New York] Momofuku Milk Bar
I had to restrain myself from going twice in one day. I did go twice in two days though.
[New York] Kura (Lunch)
It was a hard decision as I creepily watched other patrons eat their bentos and sushi sets but I eventually settled for the chirashi bowl. Best move ever.
[Shanghai] Char
Char is a steakhouse located on top of Hotel Indigo on the Bund. It is a posh and impressive date spot (pay attention guys). Like many high end restaurants on the Bund, it has spectacular atmosphere, service, and view. The food matches it. This place definitely makes a statement.

[Shanghai] Lao Zheng Xing 老正兴
Food was okay but as far as Shanghainese food is concerned, I wouldn’t come here over 上海人家 Shanghai Ren Jia or 外婆家 The Grandma’s.
[Shanghai] Afternoon Tea at Maison de L’Hui 慧公馆
While Maison de L’Hui does not have a view from the 3000th floor of the Park Hyatt, afternoon tea in Sinan Mansions offers a peaceful retreat from bustling life in Shanghai.
[Shanghai] Yuan Yuan 圆苑
All you can eat dim sum for RMB¥58. This is not the greatest dim sum you will have but it is good enough for RMB¥58.
[Shanghai] Maya 玛雅 (Brunch)
Maya is an excellent brunch place with good atmosphere, food, and service. Bottomless drinks available.
[Shanghai] Madison
This is one of the most legit brunch menus I have seen in Shanghai and the rest of the world. I wanted everything on this menu. The food here tasted luxurious yet comfortable at the same time. It felt like I was back in New York getting brunch on the weekend.
