Weekend Food Trip at: Modern Shanghai, SM MOA

The first I dined at Modern Shanghai Restaurant, I was still pregnant with Kyle!  Imagine that!  That's 5 full years ago!  Then with several Family Occasion, we've visited there around once or twice after.

It has been more than a year since our last return since we seldom have dinner at SM Mall of Asia due to "people traffic".  But thankfully, because of our Staycation at Sofitel Philippine Plaza, we've decided to dine again and see if we missed out anything.

We were so hungry when we arrived and the place wasn't as packed as before.  We immediately ordered the usuals --- Yang Chow Fried Rice, Xiao Long Bao, Garlic Kang Kong, Sweet and Sour Pork and Salt and Pepper Squid.

Everything was great!  They actually maintain the good quality for the past years and I actually liked the dishes more today then ever! 

Weekend Food Trip at: Modern Shanghai

Last weekend, I was invited by our family friend for a nice meal at the newly opened restaurant at SM Mall of Asia called Modern Shanghai.  Modern Shanghai, based on my research prior to visiting the restaurant is part of The Bistro Group.  I've always been a fan of restaurants from the said group and most of the time, I leave their restaurants with a silly smile on my face as I don't get out just being "plain full" but very contented!

Will Modern Shanghai be just like any other Chinese restaurants I've tried?  Well, you better stay focuse and scroll down while I reminisce these wonderful dishes!

Modern Shanghai on the outside reminded me so much of the posh restaurants I've dined in Shanghai.

As soon as I got in the restaurant, the wonderful ambiance and yellow lighting greeted me and immediately puts me at ease.  We had a nice table reserved for both Mr. AMW and I plus our friends.  As I looked around mentally wished for their signature Xiao Long Bao, well, wishes do come true!
