Chefkoch@Shanghai

You successfully smuggled that great bottle of Chardonnay White Wine out of Pudong airport last time you returned to Shanghai? Well, then here is the cooking recipe for a perfectly matching dinner. Needs a little work to prepare, but you will not be disappointed!

This quick snack is an absolute no-brainer to prepare. But hey, sometimes you really only have is 5 minutes to impress your hungry surprise guests…

Although culinary choice in China (at least in Shanghai) isn’t bad, you will still choose your Mom’s food as the best food! Should you however be lacking the necessary small change for flying home every weekend (or your expat working contract just doesn’t include it…) you can at least try to cook like your Mom!

Another quick dish which doesn’t need a lot of preparation work and time. But who would want to work at those current temperatures anyway… Bon appetite and thanks Fang Fang for the nice pictures!

When outside temperatures in Shanghai are getting closer to 40 degrees, you will usually have just one wish - Get out of here and find a beach. If you are unlucky enough to be caught in that “melting pot” during summertime, maybe those easy-to-prepare-yet-tasty Hawaii style toast will allow you for some caribean mood.
