×Pork Chop with Rice Cake
Why you must eat itBone-in pork and flat-cut rice cake, eaten in the same mouthful. The chop is fried then dressed in a sweet-salty sauce; the rice cake soaks that sauce up and softens. Neither half works alone — the pairing is the dish. Unchanged since 1921.
Founded 1921 and certified as a China Time-honoured Brand. It stands at 46 Yunnan Road South, on the snack street running south from People's Square. Paigu niangao counts among Shanghai's four great snacks, and this shop is generally credited with it. Open straight through, 7am to 10pm.
