Vegetarian Picks

As a moral or  health concern, vegetarianism is not big in carnivorous Shanghai and is largely the preserve of conscientious Buddhists. If you eschew all meat, ordering vegetable dishes from standard restaurants may not guarantee a flesh-free meal, but if you want to be sure what’s pinched between your chopsticks, dine at the following. The elegantly refurbished Buddhist Gongdelin delivers a fine fleshless menu in a civilised ambience with spirtual overtones. Avoid accidentally ordering phoenix claws or duch’s neck at Zaozishu.

Gongdelin–Chinese vegetarian

The podgy effigy of Milefo and the faint aroma of temple incense hint at the Buddhist creed of this elegantly refitted vegetarian restaurant, housed in a red-brick bulding dating from 1922. The fleshiess food-served in a graceful environment of stone flagging and water features-delivers shots of good karma and energisting meat-free calories.
