    What I really love about eating in China is that you can actually order one portion and share it with your friends. Here in Korea, you've got to order the same amount of portions to the number of people dining. And the most annoying part is that most restaurants don't serve one person.

    Try the 豆腐花 (toufu soup?) for breakfast.
    It's also got 开洋 dried shrimp in it, along with 紫菜 (seaweed, a kind of), soy sauce and a whole bunch of other fragrant and umami things in it.
    I would die for a dip of 油条 fried dough in a cup of 豆腐花.

    Hi, Blondie
    Thank for your reply.
    Actually, I am a Shanghainese of Australia (Aussie citizen), and live in Sydney now. My wife is a super-expert to food, because her gustatory sense is amazing. Can you - just use your tongue - tell the composition or recipe of chocolate? This is an easy job to my wife.
    By the way, let me tell you: the best Shanghainese food you can find is in Ashfield, Sydney. People call this place “Shanghai Town” or “Little Shanghai” where Shanghainese dialect has been already an "official language" in the most restaurants over there.
    Best regard
    Daniel Yang
