"1221 serves up a Canton-influenced and less oily version of Shanghainese dishes including a refreshing pork and papaya soup, or a spicy boiled beef with warm sesame loaf."

"A little out of the way, a 10min walk east of Yan’an Lu subway stop (though bus #71 stops right outside), this is foreigner-friendly Shanghai cuisine."
