There are actually a lot of Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes in Los Angeles. Although compared to Sichuan, Hunan and Cantonese dishes, it is not the most popular cuisine, but there are still fans. In particular, the postal area has been eating like me, and I haven't been spicy for years. However, every time I feel homesick or tired and sick, the most delicious bite is amaranth soup or old duck fan soup. After 5 years in Los Angeles, I saw a lot of delicious Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisines (such as the Deyuelou and Shanghai snacks that Mr. Jin mentioned, as well as the Jiangsu and Zhejiang snacks with white pork shredded by the author). I actually realized two things. 1. The closed shop may not taste bad, it may be due to many other reasons, such as the taste of Xiaopenyou is getting heavier. 2. Like these Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes that have stood for many years, they can stand the test of time.

Jufu Building
Just like the babies who have just arrived in Los Angeles, they will definitely go to Quantong Plaza. The restaurants in Quantong Plaza will often become the first memories of the food in Los Angeles. Such as the morning tea on the peninsula, as well as the main dishes of Jufulou. According to a friend who turned in, "Every year's festival reunion, if you can't figure out what to eat, go to Jufulou." Fresh pickles, fried rice cakes with crab meat, and white chopped chicken are all excellent. Xiaolong also does not neglect.

Shanghai 1
This Shanghai No. 1 Shanghai Ning is no stranger to the restaurant that really moved Shanghai flavor and Shanghai to the scene. His family is best known for hairy crabs in the fall. A couple of friends from Shanghai in the Bay Area came to Shanghai for dinner on the first two days. Yelp said that such a delicious restaurant is only Samsung.

On the beach
Shanghai Beach has been in Luolangang for several years, which is similar to the tone of Shanghai No. XNUMX. I only went to eat last year. The overall level feels very good. The sugar-soaked crab sauce with duck sauce and bamboo shoots won't fall; Xiaolong's foreskin is thin and juicy, and the rock sugar hooves have been nominated to the team.Chinese Collection.

Old Shanghai-now renamed Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai
Chun Yuer of the team highly recommends the pickled fresh and Shanghai cuisine rice in his house. "The ingredients are real, the taste is not too much MSG and soy sauce, and it is very comfortable to eat." However, the author went to eat, but was slightly disappointed. The sauce of duck sauce is too heavy, and the lack of reeling leads to insufficient juice collection. I heard that the boss changed and the chef took over the restaurant, so he changed his name. So everyone has different expectations for the lightness of Shanghai cuisine; one point less, not thick enough, one more point, and too greasy.

The braised pork was roasted with Dongpo meat and steamed. Drunken crabs, bad chicken and other appetizers are also very good. This small shop is not well-known, but as soon as you go in, you can feel it is a restaurant frequented by locals.

Building outside the building
The writer is from Hangzhou. I once heard that there is a building outside the building in Los Angeles. I don't believe it. Sure enough, it used to be a Shanghai restaurant. Hangzhou cuisine pays attention to the local materials, spring bamboo shoots and malantou dug in the mountains, catfish caught in the river, and lichens after the rain can all be used in the dishes. So it's hard to get Hangzhou food in Los Angeles.

Features: The alleys in the alley are small and broken. There are only a few tables. For couples for decades, they only make a few dishes, but the taste is first-rate.
Representative dishes: raw fried, green onion cake, crab shell yellow
Wufangxuan
Restore the early shop on the Shanghai beach, fried on iron pan, fat fritters, and onion cakes in Panyu Middle School. The boss said that he put the names of the food stalls in his childhood memories into the names of the dishes. The gimmicks on the menu are enough. The taste is good. All the food in the lanes are cheap and good. The ingredients are real. How much delicious can you expect from a few dimes in Shanghai lanes?

Kang Kang Xiaomei
When it comes to the taste of alleys, pan-fried is a snack icon that cannot be avoided.Don't say that Xiaomei's pan-fried meat is of poor quality. Since ancient times, fried steamed buns have never been better than meat, but gravy.My mouth was full of oil, Xiaomei did it.In addition to pan-fried, there are various Jiangzhe noodles, such as glutinous rice siumai, such as scallion noodles, but there are also various elements of Taiwanese snacks (such as braised pork rice, beef burritos, even milk tea and soft ice...) so definitely To be classified, Xiaomei should be regarded as a "Taiwan Gang" Shanghai dim sum...

Pride
In fact, it is the same as Shanghai No. XNUMX, but the style is completely different. This restaurant makes the only old duck soup noodles and yellow croaker noodles in Los Angeles. In addition to noodles, there are a variety of old Shanghai snacks, such as braised pork and hoofs. Needless to say, refreshing dishes such as jellyfish, and nostalgic style double stalls are past this village and there is no such shop.

Crab Shell Yellow Dessert World
A humble shop specializing in Shanghai dim sum. Crab shell yellow can be purchased with red bean paste, shredded radish, spring onion pastry, and fresh meat pastry; spring onion noodles and Sixi toasted bran are slightly sweet. . The Mid-Autumn Festival has fresh meat moon cakes, and dumplings on Dragon Boat Festival. There is a wayward Shanghai aunt behind Crab Shell Yellow. Many things are done with interest. One day I finish my work. The most popular place is the casino. I wo n’t be able to pull back my ten-carriage. OK, I hope she sees nothing strange ~).

Long Xing Ji
The original name was Wang Xingji, and it was a fake Wuxi Wang Xingji Xiaolongbao-when the team just opened, the team Weibo had also interacted with his Wuxi account. However, there may be a change in property rights, and it has been renamed Longxingji. Let's speculate that the boss's surname was changed to Long. Xiaolongbao is both sweet and unsweetened. Be cautious about sweets. There is also a soup bag that sucks through a straw, but this steamed bun product has not always been eaten by people who know how to eat. Soup dumplings always have the outer skin, the meat filling, and the soup are imported together. The yin and yang are reconciled. Taking the soup or the meat filling alone is famous. Other Wuxi specialties include Wuxi sauce ribs, sweet, crispy, and glutinous. In addition, such as oil gluten stuffed meat and Shanghai cuisine is not much different.

Nanjing salted duck
The boss is said to be a PHD of the Chinese department. The author has bought a sister-in-law, and the boss is a middle-aged man with a gentleman. In addition to making salted duck, we also make ravioli, dumplings, and various marinated side dishes. Make moon cakes in autumn and make dumplings in summer. It's a stomach that knows how to eat. If it were not for duck blood ban in the United States, then a bowl of duck blood fan soup would be needed. The storefront was small with only a few tables. Recently the store moved from San Gabriel to El Monte. Have any friends visited it?

Haipai
Features: Chinese people from all corners of the country gather in Shanghai, and the dishes follow the people. Various cuisines bloom all over the city. When you follow the customs, foreign dishes will eventually become foreign dishes with Shanghai cuisine style.Corresponding to the local gang, that is, there are Sichuan gang, Beijing gang, Guangdong gang...Los Angeles also fully embodies the immigration culture of Shanghai.
Foreign restaurant
This is also the case in Yang Xiaoguan. Using the good mountains and water of the United States, we can make three yellow chickens on our own farm. Since the ingredients have the original quality, naturally we don't need thick oil and red sauce to make every dish. The prawns came by hand, and made a small restaurant featuring local gangs, supplemented by various sea schools.

A blessing
Same work as Kangkang Xiaomei, in addition to the same supply of handmade small cages, dumplings, all walked the way of the Chinese restaurant in Los Angeles in the early years, the director of various places, Jiangsu and Zhejiang table-top tea restaurant mix. The old store has been in operation for at least ten years, and has long won the favor of all kinds of people. Guangdong grandmother, a family of three in Vietnam, and a Northeast who love the point. But the label of "Shanghai" is not obvious at a sip. My friend tried moss fish and Xiaolongbao, it seems that they are not bad; I have ordered fried noodles, ordinary dishes similar to dumplings, I feel that he has enough domestic ingredients, the seasoning is also moderate, not spicy and not too sweet, local people like it Taste.

--Dividing line--
In fact, there are still many Shanghai restaurants, but most of them follow the line of mixed seas. For example, taste noodles, such as Jinfeng Garden. There is also a family workshop type, such as Wang Jiasha, Jinjiang, etc. These stores are similar to the ones mentioned above, so I won't go into details here.
--Dividing line--
After the inventory, let’s talk about my feelings about returning to China recently.In fact, in Shanghai or Zhejiang, authentic local dishes are not popular, and local dishes are not the first place young people in Shanghai want to patronize.Whether it's Nanjing or Shanghai, or Hangzhou, there is a wave of food and beverage trends. After the seafood platter is the Chaoyue hot pot, the theme restaurants are endlessly Korean and Japanese.Local cuisine has long been not the world of young people, but there will be loyal patrons by older generations.Frankly speaking, the traditional dishes, condiments and methods of the local dishes are almost the same as those in China.The difference in taste is more the difference in ingredients.For example, pickled bamboo shoots, such as pork, and whether it is so refined and appropriate, river prawns have no choice but to use seafood to make fried shrimp...So children in the United States, especially those in Los Angeles, should be content.
