a.m.Shanghainese deep-fried pork chop usually come with a couple of rice cakes.4. Pai gu nian gao (pork chop with rice cakes, 排骨年糕)Why we love it: The best part of this Shanghainese dish is neither the deep-fried pork chop nor the sweet-soy sauce glaze, it’s the nian gao.Made of glutinous rice flour, nian gao has a compact texture that seals the subtle, fragrant taste of sticky rice from any heavy sauce.Where to get it: Proudly naming itself after the dish, Xiandelai’s pork chops and rice cakes are a must-try.
