Las Vegas, Nevada Dec 24, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - Chef Jimmy Li is set to debut his chef-driven Shanghainese cuisine at the newest modern eatery to open in the culinary hot-spot, Chinatown Vegas.
The restaurant promises to deliver an authentic dining experience and they spared no expense in assuring just that. They delayed the opening by several months as they waited for shipments to arrive from China. Every single thing you see in the restaurant has been hand-picked and imported from Chef Li's birthplace. For example, Chef Li and his business partner Joe Muscaglione tasted over three dozen types of high-quality Chinese vinegar before choosing the right one. That same determination and passion went into every detail in creating the restaurant.
Using only the highest-quality ingredients is important to Chef Li. "We want to be able to offer our customers authentic Shanghainese dishes using the best ingredients without compromising on the quality and freshness and keep the prices approachable to everyone. ShangHai Taste will offer affordable fine dining in a fast-casual setting".
The open kitchen restaurant's main draw will be their delicious Xiao Long Bao and Sheng Jian, but the entire menu will feature a nice variety of Shanghainese dishes.
Food writer Andy Wang recently wrote: "You can expect the crowds to swarm for Shanghai Taste’s pork-and-crab soup dumplings, slow-roasted short rib, Shanghai duck, and magnificent fried rice when the restaurant debuts" in Food & Wine Magazine's Guide to Eating in Las Vegas Right Now.
