"Considering it’s inside the Mag Mile’s Peninsula Hotel, it makes sense that Shanghai Terrace feels luxurious. There are golden chopstick holders shaped like boats, and each meal starts with warm “ST" monogrammed towels. The Chinese food follows suit. At $21, the four pieces of lobster, chicken, and truffle dumplings can feel like “Just Got A Bonus” dumplings, but the umami from the truffle combined with the sweetness from the lobster is incredible. The Peking duck has glistening crispy skin and sides of julienned vegetables, hoisin, and sweet and sour sauce. Check out Shanghai Terrace when it’s warm and make chun bing duck wraps on their secluded, namesake terrace." - john ringor, adrian kane
