About China Shadow’s Shanghai Crab Menu
China Shadow combines authentic Cantonese cooking with modern techniques, allowing the rich flavor of Shanghai crab to appear across several dishes rather than in only one preparation. The restaurant’s panoramic views over Shinagawa add a scenic setting to the meal, while the menu is shaped by Chef Ando’s careful selection of ingredients and refined presentation.
