The price per person is more than 2,000 yuan, which is still very Michelin-style. From the decoration to the dishes, they are all quite creative. The style of the store is low-key and luxurious, the private room is very spacious, and the dining environment is quite good. The creative dishes are beautifully presented, and the taste has been improved on the basis of the original dishes. The Longjing shrimp has a stronger tea flavor than before, and the foie gras egg tart, caramel crispy shell, and plum sauce are unexpectedly delicious.
Creative dishes, creative life, showing the beauty of life.
Shanghai|Obscura's new chef, when Michelin meets new Chinese style At Shanghai's Michelin one-star restaurant Obscura, 28-year-old chef Zhang Jian overturned my perception of new Chinese style with a menu. It is not a show-off creative stacking, but a re-deconstruction of the spicy Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, the fresh Fujian, and the Cantonese soup techniques with Michelin's presentation logic. 🍵 Opening: Camellia Oolong Start with Camellia Oolong and set the tone of taste with oriental tea fragrance. 🥢 Appetizers and soups ▫ Purple sweet potato lily The purple sweet potato sauce cooked in duck soup is dense and mellow, the lily soaked in rose water is crisp and sweet like fresh bamboo shoots, and the tart shell made of Guangdong bean curd is as thin as a cicada's wing but crispy to the point of crackling. ▫ Spicy preserved egg and river shrimp with herbs The upper layer is amber egg white jelly, and the lower layer is fine egg yolk paste, which is concentrated with chicken soup and spicy pepper juice to enhance the freshness; the river shrimp with herbs on the right is recommended to be mixed with preserved eggs, and the salty and fragrant grains jump on the tip of the tongue. ▫ Diving fish Fujian yellowtail fish is served with palm heart and coriander, and the bottom is laid with a crispy base of pickled lettuce and jellyfish. The chef's homemade Sichuan-style diving pickle juice is poured with lemon juice oil. The sour and spicy impact is as refreshing as diving, instantly activating the taste buds. ▫ Squid duck soup and squid noodles The old Mushroom duck soup base is boiled for 6 hours, and Chaoshan dried squid is added to enhance the freshness level. The saltiness of the squid naturally enhances the flavor, and finally the morel is used to add the finishing touch. Squid noodles are made purely from fresh squid, without flour added. The chewiness is more marine than Hubei fish noodles, and it is so fresh after absorbing the duck soup. 🍵 Tea pairing: Cold-brewed Longjing tea before the Ming Dynasty Paired with the first three seafood appetizers, the tea soup is as clear as a stream, just neutralizing the richness of the seafood. 🔥 Hot dishes ▫ Eight-second fresh clams The chef uses 8 seconds of quick stir-frying to lock in the crispness of the geoduck, while the scallion oil and Yunnan white fungus on the left keep crisp at the same time, and the green beans and peas steamed in the bottom are dense and warm. Dig a spoonful to the bottom and eat it while it is hot. The heat of the pot and the smoothness of the steamed in the steamed bowl form a wonderful contrast. ▫ Sand ginger sea cucumber Inspired by Guangzhou sand ginger pork knuckle, the sea cucumber is stuffed with black tiger gallbladder fungus and fat eel belly meat, and the more chewy eel back meat is placed underneath. The triple taste is blended in the sauce of sand ginger juice and old chicken soup, paired with crispy sand ginger and scallop shreds, and the umami taste is layered like a surge. ▫ Ham and fish maw We use African seven-head freshwater perch and yellow peppercorns. They are soaked in water to retain the complete gelatinous texture. After being soaked in oil and diced, they are soaked in oil until bubbles appear on the surface to fully absorb the soup. On the right, Italian risotto is poured with Buddha Jumps Over the Wall sauce (chicken soup, duck soup + dried goods + Shaoxing rice wine), and shredded Jinhua ham is shaved on it. On the left, Han Jinlian is like green wasabi to relieve greasiness. One mouthful of fish maw and one mouthful of "Obscura soaked rice" are so fresh that they make people squint. ▫ Straw smoked pigeon Using the marinating method of Sichuan camphor tea duck, it is marinated in spice water for three days to remove the fishy smell. It is smoked with pine needles + straw and then grilled on carbon. The fragrance of pine needles penetrates the texture of pigeon meat. Paired with charcoal-cooked wild rice stems, it is in line with the chef's concept of "letting traditional flavors breathe". 🍵 Pairing tea: Yunnan Ancient Tree Dianhong The peach-scented black tea has a very weak astringency, and the tea soup is as smooth as honey, which just neutralizes the thickness of the sauce. The aftertaste is like the sweetness of spring nectar. 🦞 Main course ▫ Sour and spicy bluefish The grilled bluefish is as fat as snowflakes, topped with Guizhou white sour soup made from pure fish soup, and the base is made of sauerkraut, ginger and garlic. The bottom is covered with sauerkraut fish, sprinkled with red oil powder, and the smokey flavor of boiled fish is exquisite, paired with the seasonal sweetness of stir-fried amaranth, combining hardness and softness. ▫ Blue lobster with Sichuan pepper The French blue lobster is wrapped in millet and fried, and the bottom is covered with seasonal Sichuan pepper sauce, and the numbness is as soft as mist; the white asparagus is crispy and tender like bamboo shoots, sprinkled with seasonal shrimp powder to enhance the freshness, the crispy shell is wrapped with chewy shrimp meat, and the numbness of Sichuan pepper lingers on the tip of the tongue. #MichelinRestaurant #NewChineseRestaurant #MichelinOneStar
It's a rare trip back to Shanghai, so my bestie dragged me to eat at Miyi Piaoliang Rice 🍠It shows that the restaurant is temporarily closed, but the boss personally wrote a sign saying "Not closed" xswl, interesting souls are indeed one in a million👀 🌓A meal, a journey through the universe of taste|Obscura "Hidden dishes" without a menu, "Green juice rice cake" that turns sausage and rice into a poetic dessert, "Diving fish sashimi" and "Plum fragrance persimmon"... Here, Sichuan flavor is no longer just spicy, but like a transition of subtle emotions - sharp, sweet, and nostalgic. 🍽Chef Zhang Jian is the kind of person who you can tell has been to many places as soon as you eat. From a Michelin star chef to a farmer in the mountains, he integrates and reconstructs the concept of "more Chinese food". He said: "It is not to reproduce the past, nor to define the future, but to tell a Chinese food story that belongs to the present." This meal is like pressing the pause button in "Chef's Table" But a new chapter is opened with each dish The fried eggplant skin hides the layered spicy taste of homemade pepper sauce and preserved eggs The perilla and lily open lightly, like a bowl of clear dreams on a summer night Ham and fish maw are like the heavy whispers after the night rain in Jiangnan Green juice rice cake, one bite can return to the hometown memory in the fragrance of rice flowers 🌿The design is also full of tension- Wood, metal, lacquer art, incense sticks, white lights and closed cooking tables are like sinking into a huge black ink drop. Obscura means "watching in the shadows" in Chinese. You will really feel the richest taste in the place with the least light. If you are also looking for a restaurant that is not just about eating, but also wants to taste the structure, mood and time Obscura is worth a special trip. Rather than saying it is Fine Dining, it is better to say that it is a sensory theater of contemporary Chinese food. 🕰Suitable for wanting to have an immersive date highly aesthetic dinner collecting a beautiful meal #romantic date restaurant #local delicacies #big restaurant #just came back from Shanghai and listen to me
