CHINESE ZHEJIANG
Some of the dishes here - such as 'drunken' shrimp (
醉虾
;
zuixia
) - come swimming in
the sherry-like wine Zhejiang is famous for. Also popular at this big and bustling place are
the many alcohol-free pork and fish dishes, such as the very addictive
dongporou
(
东坡
肉
). There's no English menu; take a look at what other people are eating and point.

Le Petit Saigon
$$
Cool, stylish bistro with a menu that mixes classic Vietnamese, such as
pho
and lemon
chicken, and French dishes, such as beef bourguignon, to decent effect. The desserts are
especially good. There's a strong wine list and proper coffee, which you can enjoy on the
roof terrace in the summer.
