Fu 1088

A beautiful tiled entrance, wood panelling and striking light fittings are just some of the original features of this 1920s townhouse. Its 16 traditionally furnished private rooms evoke old Shanghai charm. The food is equally sophisticated: river shrimp are made to order; the smoked mackerel belly dressed in a mildly sweet glaze is crisp but juicy. No meal here is complete without the cashew praline puff pastry.
