Shanghai / Park

The one of a kind pocket park in the middle of old town Shanghai built for and loved by the local community. An inspiring Utopian urban living in reality, I used to commute a lot both for pleasure and field research of my service design assignment. It's currently used by the local government as a PCR test spot. Wish it could reopen soon to public!

Shanghai / Bakery

Since I found my preferable toast, Over. has quickly become my favorite artisanal bakery shop in the hood. All natural yeast-based breads freshly baked everyday, this is the first baker's place in town where I keep returning for the authentic and seasonal flavors, bread talks with friends and the occasional art and craft exhibitions curated by the owner.

Shanghai / Cafe

Simply the best meet-up cafe in the hood, celebrating a gentler life through good coffee and good reads. GentleMaker also features concierge service and retail merchants for personal leather goods

Shanghai / Restaurant

New Chinese bistro inspired by cyber punk and re-imagined by a young pair of modern food culture enthusiasts at downtown, Shanghai. Great for casual dinner and natural wines with folks

Shanghai / Bar

The street view from the outdoor seat plus the fresh bakery make it a perfect spot for breakfasters to chill. I still recall the glorious sunshine last time there with my friend...such a good time!
