When a restaurant's delivery menu comes with a 'contents' index, you know that this is no ordinary Chinese takeaway. Attached to a sit-in restaurant that's popular with the locals, Shang Hai offers a range of seafood cuisine that you won't find elsewhere - spiced and salted stuffed squids with prawn paste and scallop with broccoli in oyster sauce are just two of the more impressive examples. The vegetable fried rice is a meal in and of itself, packed full of several different seasonal vegetables. Generally the choice for veggies isn't great, but all dishes are cooked using vegetable oil, and the staff are happy to adapt dishes to suit customers' needs. And if you're there on a Tuesday, make sure to order the hand-made Chinese buns - mysteriously, they're only available on that day of the week.
