Start your morning on historic Nanjing Road before the crowds arrive and see how locals begin their day. Our first stop is a tiny breakfast stall where dough is hand-pulled and sizzling on the griddle.
As we walk toward People’s Park, we’ll visit family-run eateries that have served locals for decades. Along the way, you’ll taste a curated selection of classic Shanghai breakfast favorites: a crisp Chinese crepe (jianbing), rich soup dumplings (xiaolongbao), golden pan-fried pork dumplings, a warm honey egg custard bun, flaky scallion pancakes, and a coconut latte from the café locals call “Chinese Starbucks.”
We'll share the stories behind each dish and why breakfast is such an essential part of life here. We continue through quiet alleyways near Rock Bund before ending at The Bund, where you can enjoy the riverfront view or keep exploring.
