We loved trying food in its natural state without preservatives! Our tour was so great I even managed to convince my friend (who is very much a picky eater), to go on another foodie tour in Beijing.We didn’t have a lot of time in Shanghai and this was perfect to see and eat a lot in a short amount of time. Our guide was fun, accommodating and gave us great insight into Shanghai.
