Shanghai

Last weekend we went to Shanghai for a mini-break. I was there for work during the week, and Will met me for the weekend.

We had a great time and really enjoyed touring around the city!! There are so many places to visit, loads of shopping to be done, and yummy food!

We managed to fit in a walk around the Bund, Xintiandi, Taikang, and the French Concession. We had a drink at The Glamour Bar and Face (both fab bars), and dinner at Whampoa Club and Fu 1088.



Will couldn't help himself - checking out all of the construction sites around town (and trust me - there were a few)!!



Freshly made mango ice-cream - yummmmmy



One of the funniest things happened - Will had a major wardrobe malfunction!! He wore one of his Ted Baker shirts to FU 1088 for dinner. It was a classic as the print on his shirt was the same as the wallpaper in the restaurant (except the flowers were different colours)!! Luckily the restaurant has a private dining set up and we had our own room so he wasn't subject to humiliation all night in front of the other diners (but I couldn't stop laughing)!! See pics below...


We went to M on the Bund for brunch on Sunday which was lovely (great views of Pudong and the city). Will indulged in a piece of one of M's famous Pavlova's (oh, and I might have had a taste too)!! It was YUMMMMM
There are so many beautiful old buildings along the Bund.
