Eat Like a Local Foodie Tour (Breakfast)

Start the day the Shanghai way with an early-morning gastronomic adventure through the heart of the city. As the metropolis comes to life, our guide will take us to four or more authentic, time-honoured Chinese eateries to discover the fascinating stories, traditions and people behind the city’s vibrant food culture. We taste a delicious variety of local favourites, from steaming soup dumplings and crispy buns to freshly made pancakes and savoury scallion pancakes. We also have the chance to take part in a hands-on soup dumpling-making experience, learning how these delicate parcels are prepared before enjoying them. We finish with a refreshing mango dessert.

Between tastings, we explore some of Shanghai’s most iconic landmarks, including Nanjing Road and People’s Square. We will get an insight into how these famous locations have evolved and hear the lesser-known stories that have shaped the city around them. This is more than a breakfast excursion, it is an opportunity to experience Shanghai waking up, from traditional food stalls to the neighbourhood eateries, we try the best the city has to offer.
