[Shanghai] Sproutworks 豆苗工坊
Sproutworks offers salads, sides, and paninis. This place reminds me of Whole Foods but without the groceries.
[Shanghai] Tiffany Cafe
Tiffany Cafe is a cute little restaurant that serves all sorts of food from waffles and pork chop to Thai curry. There are Audrey Hepburn themed paraphernalia throughout the restaurant.
[Shanghai] Awfully Chocolate
All the desserts here are super sweet and rich. That can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you feel about death by chocolate.
[Shanghai] Beef & Liberty
It is so hard for find a good burger in Asia. When my friend recommended a burger place in Shanghai, I said this better be a damn good burger. And a damn good burger it was.
[Shanghai] The Grandma’s 外婆家
No, I am not reviewing my grandma’s food. This is actually the name of a popular family-style chain restaurant in China. Although I imagine this is what a home cooked meal by grandma would taste like if my grandma actually cooked.
[Hong Kong] i-Scream Gelato
Upon hearing I like Earl Grey, my foodie friend immediately recommended this gelateria that sells Earl Grey gelato.
[Hong Kong] Zuma
Zuma is a contemporary Japanese restaurant located in The Landmark building in Hong Kong. Everything in this building will cost you a vital organ or two. My friend and I opted for the Daikoku tasting menu set at HKD$970 per person. We regret nothing.
[Hong Kong] Life Cafe
We went momentarily insane and decided to eat rabbit food–I mean at a vegetarian restaurant. I think it was the happy hour (discount on martinis and beers) that lured us in. For a vegetarian restaurant, it was better than I expected but I will not be going to any more vegetarian restaurants by choice any time soon.
