New Shanghai brings its acclaimed Shanghai-style dining to Burnside Village

Best known for its handcrafted dumplings, live dumpling theatre where trained chefs fold each bun by hand, and dining rooms styled on the glamour of 1930s Shanghai, this proudly Australian, family owned restaurant adds to Burnside Village's already impressive dining offering.

The menu features New Shanghai's signature dishes, including xiao long bao, prawn dumplings with peanut sauce, pan-fried pork buns and Shanghai-style braised pork belly, alongside handmade dumplings, dim sum, kung pao chicken, stir-fried noodles and classic Chinese stir-fries.

New Shanghai's chefs use quality ingredients to recreate traditional recipes passed down through generations, making it a spot suited to a quick lunch, dinner or the next group gathering.

The venue’s design draws on the Art Deco glamour of 1930s Shanghai and the city’s historic Bund waterfront: a bold red and green palette, brass and gold detailing, and the Shanghai skyline traced in tile and picked out in light throughout the room. Across around 304 seats, it brings together a main dining room, a Shanghai gin bar, a live dumpling theatre, three private dining rooms and an outdoor terrace.
