Walking through the bustling streets of Shanghai last summer, the sizzle and aroma of fried bao pulled me in like a magnet. There\it\too much oil, and it\it\rising rents push stalls to the fringes, and younger chefs chase trends. But places like Sang Ji hold firm, preserving authenticity in a fast-changing world.
If you ever find yourself in Shanghai, skip the tourist traps and head straight to Sang Ji. Order a mixed platter—pork, crab, and veggie—and eat it fresh off the griddle. Let the heat warm your hands, the flavors tell their tale. It\it\s a journey through time and taste, a reminder to savor life\s simple joys. In a world of fleeting trends, Sang Ji\s fried bao remains an anchor, grounding us in shared humanity.
