Food
CHICKEN AND DUCK BLOOD SOUP
It contains solidified blood as its main ingredient. The broth used is a very light or slightly salty clear chicken broth with some spring onion added for a nice flavor. All in all, this traditional Shanghai snack is quite tasty. Don't be scared.
TEA DISHES
There is a tradition in China of taking snacks with tea. One specialty is a rich meal with every course cooked with tea. The unique feature is that you don't see the tea but smell the fragrance of tea. You can experience the artistic conception of "There is no tea here but better than having tea".
