Privy 5 Overview

Share |

This authentic Shanghainese hot spot is mayhem, it is mayhem because the food is so good. Be warned, do not come prepared to annihilate your Amex card, it is not that expensive and they only accept cash. Remember you are not there for the décor, you are there for the duck and the dumplings. The soup comes inside the dumplings and Joe's Shanghai makes a mockery of most Chinese hybrid menus New Yorkers appear to believe are authentic. They are the most genuine Shanghai in this city, so if we know and accept that the décor is bad, the wait will be long and the food will be worth all of this, we are really quite happy.
