| - Real, decent ShangHai cuisine for sure. Clean, nice and spacious interior too, which is a plus for Chinese restaurants. We ordered 1 plate of shanghai fried noodles ($12.95) and 3 steamers of pork soup buns (xiaolongbaozi, $7.50/6 in one steamer). Pork soup buns were only tiny bit smaller than ones in china but had good amount of meat, and the soup was good too. I'm from a part of China where food is more spicy, but i do know it's real shanghai food when the fried noodles are slightly dark in colour, tender, with non-bbq'd pork strips and slightly bland in taste, also the hot sauce being on the soft side with no aromas. These are not bad points, it's real ShangHai food!! Servers are kind, are definitely proper Chinese servers, they are patient unless you ask for stupid stuff, remember you came for ShangHai cuisine. Washrooms are very clean, big thumbs up. Overall it's a bit pricey but hey it's authentic and it's a nice looking, clean restaurant, and you don't find that combination in Toronto often.
Also the BestCo supermarket 2 doors down is very big and cheaper than T & T, so it's a convenient place to have a meal before going home.
