Ye Olde Station — Restaurant in Shanghai

Came here as a party of four for lunch. Disinterested reception. Showed us to our table and left a tablet for us to place orders with no attempt to explain how it works.

We ordered our food and was surprised that tea was not served.

Service was generally poor. When we asked for tea we were show a page on the tablet menu where the cheapest pot was listed around RMB 150. We ordered it and later while browsing through we realised that the precious pages listed tea at more reasonable prices. We drank our expensive tea and had a selection of their rather indifferent "Tim Sum" for lunch.

We ate, paid the overpriced bill and left, and not a word of "thank you" or "come again" from any of the serving staff nor receptionist. Later we discovered that it was supposed to be Michelin starred. Hah.

Restaurant has been recently given the "Bib Gourmand" award by the Michelin Guide, which means "exceptional good food at moderate prices". Highly...

Fairly average food for the price range. Had much better meals in Shanghai for half the price. Service is pretty awful.

Our waiters managed to explode two beers on our table as well with not a sign of remorse. Maybe this spot is better for large groups? I’m a bit perplexed as to how this restaurant comes Michelin...
