Taverna SanLio

Fantastic Taverna with rooms run by two sisters serving modern Venecian cuisine. Ask the chef for traditional anchovy pasta if you can pass up their modern interpretations. +39.041.2770669 Salizada San Lio, Castello 5547/46, 30122 Venezia www.tavernasanlio.com

Shintori

Established (by Shanghai standards) Japanese restaurant dishing up some of the best in town. Set in a moody warehouse with an open kitchen the black cod will never disapoint, nor will the braised daikon. Wash it down with a tasting plate of sake, served on ice.

Guyi Hunan Cuisine

Fantastically fiery Hunan cuisine specialises in fish. Signature flavours are chili, coriander, ginger and licorice root. The extensive menu is a fantastic taste adventure for those unfamiliar with the cusine and a firm favourite for those lucky enough to be able to eat here regularly

Spin

Beautiful, Japanese inspired handcrafted ceramics from Southern China. Stark white, pale minty green or earthen in organic shapes. Pieces from spin are covetable and incredibly affordable. Pack light and fill your suitcase with spin pieces.

mesa

Contemporary Australian Cuisine served up in a chic warehouse makes one of Shanghai's best and most reasonably priced western style restaurants.
On a sunny day, don't miss breakfast on the upstairs terrace or one of Steve Baker's signature mini burgers in the bar.

Star Anise

Delicious Modern Australian, Asian Fusion served up in a sweet colonial house. Book ahead for a courtyard table in the summer. The Tasting Menu is well worth the three hours it will take and of course depending on the season could see fabulous creations using scallops, duck, local beef and the freshest tastiest produce available. Western Australia is a major producer of clean food and this restaurant is one of Australia's finest. www.staraniserestaurant.com.au

Aarli Bar

Modern Australian Cuisine, specialising in fresh whole fish. Select one sized to suit your party and then choose from the days three sauces. If you're not a fan of the best fish in the world (Arguabley, WA brings up the best seafood in the world from it's unpolluted patch of the Indian Ocean) there's an extensive menu of tapas. The Aarli Bar is the best bite in town.
