Back home from Shanghai
Well, i should start off by giving a brief description of how Shanghai has not "changed" since i left like 2 years ago. The area where i used to stay in Loyang has a new park. Looks more friendly now. Even the roads that are around Loyang station has been altered to suit the traffic in the morning.
The new shopping mall at Xin Tian Di has much more shops now but it is still only patronized by the ah mongs! We tried the Di Tian Feng at the mall and according to Jason Chan, that one is the real authentic Taiwanese opening in Shanghai. But 1 thing for sure is that the xiao long bao are delicious over there!
Even though the Xiangyang street mall where they sell fake goods have been demolished, they have since shifted to another mall. I went for a visit on Saturday and to my surprise, the whole building was hardly crowded at all. I even went to ask whether the business has been bad since the demolish, and the shop owners confirmed my thought.
I have to say this trip to Shanghai was pretty short so i wasn't able to go to all the places i wanted to visit. I couldn't go to Yu Garden where it is very similar to Chinatown. Well, i guess Shanghai will always be the closest 2nd home of mine. :)
It is Tuesday now and i will be traveling again! This time for a short trip to Hongkong to see some places with Baby.
