By Black Sheep Restaurants, this nightclub-style place, quite similar to Hakkassan in London, delivers creative fusion Canton-cuisine, with dim lights and the disco music playing in the background. The menu is designed for sharing and celebrates roasted meats and fresh seafood. This is the place to go if you want to enjoy some authentic Cantonese food paired with great wine.

Address: No.376 Wukang Road 武康路376号（近湖南路）
Franck Bistrot is located at Wukang Road in the French concession of Shanghai. This French street-style bistro is well known for many food lovers, and its Tartare de bœuf is by many considered the best in town. At the same time, it is a treasured place for many wine lovers. If you walk further into the bistro, you will certainly be surprised by a cave that reminds you of an old cave at a domain in Burgundy. If possible, I recommend you take a seat outside in the courtyard.

Located on the fourth floor of the Shangri La Hotel, which is just in the centre of the city, you'll find this western-style restaurant with a nice view and an open kitchen. The signature dish is the steak, and the selection of wines is among the best in all of Shanghai. There's often a live band playing jazz music during the dinner, which gives quite an exotic feel to it.

The building is nestled in the last remaining cluster of Shikumen stone townhouses, reminding people of the golden era of Shanghai during the 1930s. This is the first restaurant in mainland China of renowned Michelin starred chef Pierre Gagnaire, who focuses on quality, local ingredients and the reinterpretation of traditional French cooking. Le Comptoir’s interiors are based on Parisian salons and inspired by the old-world glamour of Shanghai. The team of sommeliers will provide you with excellent service, and the seats...

A modern bistro created by the chef Jonas Noël, close to the Shanghai Natural History Museum. Oxalis moved to the centre of Shanghai and reopened here in 2019. The decorations and colours are exciting, and Oxalis is open for both lunch and dinner, specialising in Nordic-French fusion cuisine. I recommend the set lunch menu, which is of good value. Also, don't miss the huge terrace with a view of Shanghai city. Imagine sitting there on a sofa, with a glass of Champagne in your hand...
