Although some carp that it's outdated and overpriced, Le Bouchon is still a mainstay among Shanghai's French contingent. The menu consists of largely traditional fare like steak tartare, escargots. Be sure to come with an empty stomach. After the original owners (who were let's say 'divisive') finally took the red-eye out of China a few years ago, it's been bought by a Hong Kong restaurateur, who's partnered with Charles Belin. Since the revamp, in our run-through of the menu, the food, though not cheap, was warming and excellent. In a simple and classic sort of way. These days, they might even let you get away with eating in there even if you don't speak French.
