Traveler Reviews
For us, this was less about eating a huge meal than paying attention to several small ones. That rhythm worked for 3 hours.
Practically speaking, the Shanghai meeting point was simple to find, and the food stops came at a sensible pace. There was time to ask what we were eating rather than just moving to the next plate.
The useful part in Shanghai was not just trying food, but knowing what to order again later. I saved two dish names in my phone before the tour ended.
Honestly, this felt like travelling with someone who knew the area, not following a person holding a flag. That difference showed most at Shanghai.
