Travel through the world of soup dumplings with an ex-chef, award-winning food writer and longtime resident of Shanghai, Christopher St. Cavish. St. Cavish is the author of the Shanghai Soup Dumpling Index, a nerdy and comprehensive assessment of the city’s soup dumpling industry, and has been featured in countless media for his obsession with the dumpling and Shanghai expertise.
In this tour, he dives deep into the history, evolution, sociology, economics and current state of the soup dumpling, telling stories of modern China through the lens of the dumpling. He brings 20 years of Shanghai experience and personal connection to food in the city.
This is not a simple stop-and-eat food tour, but a nerdy and personal deep dive into an iconic snack and the industry and world around it. It is not about “hidden gems” or being the most obscure; it is all about providing context for the city, its food and its dumplings, gained through years of interviews, research and firsthand experience.
