Fu 1088 (福 1088), Changning — a celebrated Shanghainese restaurant inside a 1930s French Concession mansion. The menu is in Chinese. You need to ask what's available today.
Fu 1088 occupies a restored 1930s French Concession mansion — twelve rooms, mahogany panels, art deco stained glass, and a menu of Shanghai classics that reads like a history of the city's prosperity. The hairy crab arrives in October. The braised pork belly is served year-round.
The stranger and his colleague are seated in a private room. The waiter in a silk vest appears with the menu. The stranger asks: 「今天推荐什么?」
The waiter lists several dishes. The stranger catches: 红烧肉 (braised pork), 清蒸鱼 (steamed fish). He asks: 「这个辣吗?」 — pointing to a dish. 「不辣的。」
「有没有素食的菜?我朋友不吃肉。」 The waiter nods and describes several options. His colleague says: 「帮我们点菜吧。」 Let the waiter decide. 「好的!」
