Shanghai Gardens

My latest favorite Chinese place is Shanghai Gardens, located at 20956 Homestead Road in Cupertino.


Bean Curd with Vegetable--$5.95. This is an appetizer. It's not a big portion but I liked the flavors.


Special Fish Gluten with Seafood & Pea Leaf--$14.95. The fish gluten is a big puffy hollow ball.


Braised Pork Leg in Brown Sauce--$17.95. This was so tender--fell apart with just a fork. It had a nice sweet flavor.


Chef Zhao Special Tofu--$10.95. This was okay. Not too exciting in the flavor category.


Eggplant with Hot Pepper on Sizzling Plate--$10.95. The eggplant was tender but it was too spicy with the jalapeƱos.


Sauteed Snow Pea Leaf--$12.95. This was a little coarse.


Sauteed Shanghai Vegetable--$10.25. This was much more tender.


Meatballs in Clay Pot--$11.95. The meatballs were soft but the brown sauce was the same as the braised pork leg.


Pork Wonton Soup--$5.95 for a small bowl. It would probably serve 2-3.


Shanghai Pan Fried Juicy Pork Buns--$7.55. These are good. There's a lot of juice inside so bite carefully.


Green Onion Pancakes--$4.50. This would be good if it didn't have so much green onion.


Prawn Chow Mein--$8.95. The noodles were good but it needed just a little more flavor.


Shanghai Rice Cakes--$9.95. The rice cakes are good but some may find them a little too sticky.
