La Bourriche 133

Shanghai, China

When the architects built Shanghai’s YWCA headquarters in 1932, they likely hadn’t anticipated that this imposing eight‑storey Art Deco landmark would house a French restaurant nearly a century later. Leaning into the prominence of seafood in Shanghainese cuisine, the menu confidently delivers quality catch executed with classical French technique. Alongside seafood that requires expert execution such as Dover sole, snow crab and rock lobster, signatures including escargots, duck foie gras and crisp‑skinned duck confit showcase broad technical finesse. Expect subtle Asian accents with a clear emphasis on French style, which extends to the dining room design, featuring brushed metal accents, leather banquettes and white marble columns. A well‑curated French wine list (vintages line the backlit cellar wall), paired with knowledgeable sommeliers, elevates the experience.
