I Shanghai Delight

i-Shanghai Delight in Fremont is renowned for its authentic, in-house prepared Shanghainese specialties, particularly its viral crab roe series featuring giant straw-sipped soup dumplings, rich noodles, and rice bowls. Creators also praise the crispy-bottomed sheng jian bao (pan-fried pork buns), glazed sweet and sour ribs, and braised pork belly with chestnuts and quail eggs. Traditional sweets like red bean desserts dusted with soybean flour round out the hearty and flavorful menu.

Commenters share high enthusiasm and visual excitement for the giant dumplings and rich crab roe dishes. While most are eager to visit, a few note drawbacks such as small portion sizes and the Fremont location being less convenient. Others also inquired about non-shellfish pork alternatives for those with allergies.
