Yihu Restaurant, Shanghai, Part 2

These were the 11 delicious hot dishes we ate at Yihu, after the 10 cold ones:

P1450934
Steamed fish fillets--very tender and delicate fish but sauce was bland.

P1450935
Crystal prawns, loved for their tenderness and el dente bite.

P1450931
The photo says it all. Delicious beyond words.

P1450940
Baby eels in a rich soy sauce.

P1450942
Fish maw hot pot, very yum.

P1450939
Squid in a bean sauce.

P1450949
Sprouts with 3 kinds of eggs (fresh egg, salted egg and century egg) in superior stock.

P1450944
Crunchy dish of stir-fried chicken giblets, bamboo shoots and peppers.

P1450943
Soft and silky fried tofu balls with assorted veg.

P1450945
Steamed razor clams in a hot chili sauce.

P1450950
Beancurd strips and Chinese ham, a Shanghainese favorite.

Four types of desserts:

P1450955
Mini egg tarts. I didn't eat these because I can tell by the color that the custard's not worth eating.

P1450952
Deep fried flaky radish puffs.

P1450959
Jiu niang (newly fermented rice) with tang yuen (glutinous balls) and peaches soup.

P1450965
An excellent dish of baked flaky soft buns with a meat and spring onions filling. One of those things to crave for if you're on death row.

That was a meal of 25 dishes!
