Shanghai 456 is one of my favourite Chinese restaurants. As with most Chinese places, they have a relatively large menu. One of the things they really do well here are noodles! They offer a lot of different kinds of noodles, from noodle soups to noodle stir-fries. One of my favourite dishes is their namesake Shanghai noodles, which is a great option for first-timers.
This Chinese restaurant attained legendary status years ago, due to the delicious dumplings and the mystery surrounding the place — a weird, out-of-the-way location at the City Centre Airport, no signage, no website, et cetera. Then, the restaurant shut down just as mysteriously and people mourned the loss. But, Shanghai 456 re-opened in a new location, with the same tasty xiao long bao dumplings that they’ve always been known for. The pork dumplings, filled with soup, explode with flavour, and are extremely filling.
