Life is comfortable and desirable, and the Shanghainese dialect sounds like "falling stomach". After all, eating something into the stomach is the most direct way for each of us to get happiness. And on summer nights, a meal of roast meat is the most "stomach drop".
Recently, the third Shanghai "May 5th Shopping Festival" kicked off, and the night economy is still an important part. Among them, a "stomach-dropping" supper, as an important part of the city's night economy, is also a barometer of the degree of economic vitality recovery of Shanghai after the epidemic.
The area around Macao Road and Changshou Road in Putuo District has always been a gathering place for night foraging. From the past stalls to today's exquisite restaurants, the style of the neighborhood has been upgraded, but the lively and casual temperament still firmly grasps the "traffic code" of this area.
In addition to residents living nearby, office workers in surrounding business buildings are the main consumers at night. No matter how tired the work is, how late they leave work, young white-collar workers are willing to find a familiar supper restaurant, add some high protein, and let themselves "fall stomach" a "summer".
Recently, the reporter visited three barbecue shops, is there any one on your "grass pulling list"?
Indulge in a relaxing time for food
Sake Tavern:
2nd Floor, 727 Macao Road
In Japanese dramas, white-collar workers often visit izakayas after work. With a bunch of draft beer, a few strings of roasted birds, sitting at the bar and chatting with friends about life, Japanese izakaya has always given people a quiet and restrained feeling. The wine tour house on Macau Road is even more intimate - the storefront is divided into independent semi-private rooms. Even if you go alone, diners can enjoy a separate space that is not disturbed for a while.
There are not many roasted birds and grilled skewers in the menu, but the roast meat and live fish are a must: the thick cut beef tongue tastes soft and sweet, and when you ask, you know that there are more cooking processes; The thick and plump foie gras is paired with cold rice, and a large mouthful of "dazzling" is put into the mouth, and the aroma of grease is wrapped around the tip of the tongue; The sea bream is kept in the fish tank in front of the shop, and the tail is still shaking when the sashimi is served; Salt kebabs lock in the tenderness and juice of the chicken itself, and grilled sliced fish and real seabream tempura are delicacies that cannot be found anywhere else.
Long gone! Wait in line for a meal experience
Gin Pork Golden Pig Korean Cuisine:
526 Anyuan Road
There are many net red roast meat shops near Changshou Road, and golden pigs are known as "handsome and beautiful women gathering place". Under the premise of ensuring the safety of epidemic prevention and control, many customers came to the door of the store half an hour in advance to wait for the door to open. "It's been a long time since I've waited so long to get to dinner, and I feel like the old days are back." A customer who has been waiting for nearly 2 hours said.
"Golden Pig" focuses on Spanish Iberian black hair pork, there are not many choices, but the amount is sufficient. If it is two girls, 268 yuan a "golden pig three brothers" (pork belly + plum blossom meat + pork neck meat) is just enough to eat. The sauce and side dishes of different meats are also different, and the roasted meat is dipped in a sauce wrapped in lettuce, and if you add garlic, the taste is simply too "top-notch". Eat meat in large bites, drink in large bowls, intimate service with the "bundy" background music in the store, and a few bites of belly are particularly "stomach-dropping".
Roadside stall "upgrade" note
Traffic light:
1728 North Shaanxi Road
The charm of kebabs is that there is wine, meat, and stories. Customers with tablets should have a hard time imagining that a few years ago, this "exquisite" and jianghu barbecue restaurant was just a barbecue stall under the traffic lights at the intersection of Macau Road. From the original roadside stalls to the current downtown bustling with two shops, the "upgrade" of the traffic lights also witnessed the process of building and demolishing the night supper stalls on Changshou Road and continuously improving the overall quality of the block.
Traffic lights feature baked tape. Unlike other barbecue restaurants, this one's striped meat is carefully sliced and more delicious; The tendons are marinated and then grilled with a unique sauce, which is full of chewiness; The heat of roasted eggplant is well controlled, and many diners "eat only a bare skin". Interestingly, next to the traffic light is the first store in Shanghai with a net red Sichuan cuisine, if one is in line for too long and can't wait, you can go to the other to "sit at one table and eat two dishes".
