Wu Kong
This basement restaurant, in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, just off Nathan Road, is often packed during mealtimes with locals who come for the good food at excellent prices. More upscale than many Shanghainese restaurants, with its stark-white walls and pond with goldfish in the foyer, it serves a variety of shark's fin dishes, as well as the usual sautéed fresh prawns, braised shredded eels, braised eggplant with hot garlic sauce, stuffed bean curd, and other dishes common to Shanghai. Other selections include cold pigeon in wine sauce (its signature appetizer), Peking duck, and crispy duck. If you've had your fill of the more readily available and popular Cantonese and Sichuan food and are ready to experiment with other types of Chinese cuisine, this is an excellent place to start.
