Manali and I searched tirelessly for authentic food, opting for street vendors if we could find them amidst the chaotic intertwines that are the streets of Shanghai. We were lucky to actually find one we set out to locate on Wujiang Lu.

When you need fresh poultry in Shanghai, this is where you go.
