Boston egg yolk head first!

🍚 Shanghai Fresh: Boston’s Spot for Homey Chinese Dishes—New Lion’s Head Stew Steals the Show This Shanghai-style gem keeps impressing with classic dishes and creative twists. From melt-in-your-mouth pork to spicy Sichuan-inspired beef, it’s a go-to for comforting, flavorful meals that feel like a home-cooked feast. 🌟 New & Notable: Yangzhou Lion’s Head Stew 🐷 A standout new addition: Two large pork meatballs, each stuffed with a salty egg yolk center. The meat is shockingly tender—so soft it dissolves on your tongue. Drenched in a rich sauce with dried scallop shreds, it’s savory, umami-packed, and perfect over rice (you’ll want to soak up every drop). 🍜 Must-Try Staples Spicy Chicken Dry Noodles 🍗 ・Think "Chinese with a twist": Creamy, slightly sweet-spicy sauce coating chewy hand-pulled noodles. • Generous chunks of tender chicken add heartiness—tastes a little Americanized (in a good way) but still satisfying. Salted Egg Yolk Fish Fillet 🐟 • Crispy fish covered in a bubbly, fragrant salted egg yolk crust—crunchy, salty, and addictive. • Pro tip: Their salted egg yolk shrimp (a previous favorite) is just as good—order whichever’s in season. Steamed Beef with Lotus Leaf 🌶️ • A repeat order for good reason: Tender beef marinated in bold, slightly spicy Sichuan spices, steamed in a lotus leaf for earthy aroma. • Spicy enough to excite, but mild enough for most palates—extremely rice-friendly. 🥬 The Veggie: Dried Tofu with Malantou A classic Shanghai cold dish with (a familiar, homey taste)—but this version leans heavy on dried tofu. More malantou (a leafy green with a fresh, herby bite) would balance it better, but still a solid, light starter. 📍 Why It Works Cozy, no-fuss atmosphere—great for casual meals or sharing with friends. Blends Shanghai classics with subtle modern touches (like that slightly Americanized noodle dish) without losing authenticity. Portions are generous, making it easy to share (or take leftovers for a delicious next-day lunch). #BostonChineseFood #ShanghaiCuisine #ComfortFood #BostonEats
