Shanghai Trip 2015

So... I totally forgot to post about my Shanghai trip. I went for a week before Thanksgiving. My parents were already there so I went to go meet up with them. My sister joined a few days later.

I didn't make a great effort to keep track of the restaurant names and stuff... so this is purely for your viewing pleasure. I included as much info as I have.

Shanghai has so much good food. Although I'm still biased that the food in Taiwan is better. :P And you can't beat these prices! $1USD = ~6.6RMB You do the math. Even the more "expensive" restaurants weren't that bad for a party of 3 or 4.
