Calix

In addition to two nice private rooms, there is also an outdoor terrace on the second floor. A long table that can seat more than a dozen people is close to the open kitchen, which is a favorite location for a group of foreigners. American dining style, large quantity, relatively good value for money. The five of us ordered a bunch of appetizers. The marinated king salmon with herbs was fresh, the sauce of the spicy chicken wings tasted good, the crispy braised squid and coriander salad were almost mistaken for chicken nuggets, and the Maryland crab cakes were put with flour in the middle, which made them a bit sticky and tasted bad. They should be pure crab cakes like Morton's to be delicious. I ordered a beef tenderloin, and the little guy almost ate a piece of ribeye steak alone. In comparison, the ribeye steak was more tender and tasted better, but it was a pity that it was naturally a little oily, so I didn't dare to eat more. The steamed lobster was the best, with shrimp roe, and the price was acceptable; the roasted Atlantic halibut was relatively light, and the black truffle mushroom risotto looked beautiful, but it was a pity that I didn't taste it. The private room can be closed, and no matter how noisy it is, it will not affect each other. The restroom is on the escalator downstairs, the place is small, and the facilities are a bit old. The service is good, the invoice is electronic, and you can get Xintiandi points by scanning the code

During the National Day holiday, I went to see my mother, the only surviving elder on my father’s side, and went out for a meal together. My mother asked me to take a look at the old house in Tianheli, so let’s eat at Xintiandi. The entrance to the lakeside underground parking lot is right there. It turns out that Tianheli Soy Sauce Shop is located opposite the location, and only a few steps away from the briquettes factory that used to be at the entrance of the alley. What to eat is also a question. There are not many suitable Chinese restaurants in Xintiandi, and older people can't eat spicy food. Suddenly I remembered that my wife graduated from St. John's. Although she is over 90, it is absolutely no problem to eat Western food, and it is also delicious. If you must drink coffee, then go for CALIX. I went to this place when it first opened. At that time, the whole Xintiandi was filled with CALIX banner advertisements and performances by Spanish guitar masters. I haven't been there since. The trip went smoothly this time. The restaurant called us half an hour in advance to confirm again. I went to the door and took a look. The outdoor space was large but the weather was a bit hot. I was afraid that someone was smoking and seriously polluting the air. The first floor felt a little depressing, so I went up to the second floor. Unexpectedly, in addition to the open kitchen on the second floor, there are two private rooms, both of which can seat about 8 people. One is a long table and the other is a round table. Of course, when eating Western food, you need a long table. The table area is also large and can be spread out.

This is the only restaurant I went to twice during the Restaurant Week. I missed the pork ribs and wide vermicelli noodles with shrimp. My classmate's mother happened to be back from Sydney, so we came together and ordered three weekday lunches and a pork rib. We also wanted to order dessert, but the waiter who took the order kindly reminded us that the portion was enough and we could decide whether to order dessert after finishing it. Unfortunately, the wide vermicelli noodles with shrimp in the Restaurant Week event are not available now, which is a pity. I will go again next time when the noodles are available.

Day8 Calix Overall: 8.4 Environment: 8 Service: 8.7 Taste: 8.4 La la la~ la la la~ I am a little expert in eating~ ~Running around the streets in strong winds and heavy rains~ Last time we drank at night (inside the store) This time we had lunch at noon (outdoors) Different from the high-end and high-class types More like the casual outdoor restaurants in foreign countries (hot) Surprisingly, the food was quite delicious Although it was daytime, the cocktails were not sloppy (I thought the bartenders worked at night) Appetizer Wagyu brisket salad The meat was tender, fragrant and crispy. I thought it was pork neck for a while …Hahaha The seasoning was OK, not sour, not sweet, and not overpowering Main course 8-hour slow-roasted honey ribs It was indeed tender and tender, with fat and lean parts and cartilage. The portion was quite large. Unfortunately, it was a bit dry… The seasoning was American style with a slightly sour taste. It was tasty Served with onion mayonnaise potato salad, a bit greasy Dessert Mango Sherpa with Brownie Cake with Vanilla Sauce Brownie with Sherpa feels like eating frozen Playdough... They taste better when they are separated American cuisine, the desserts are not outstanding, only sweet Extra + Gin Tony Different from the usual, orange and cinnamon are used, which is not bad (It is a good match for ribs But in broad daylight, you should be a classy girl)

The most aggressive advertising in Xintiandi recently, their small flags can be seen everywhere. The place is very large, the decoration is very novel and unique, and in June they invited a Spanish guitar master to perform. The dishes are sufficient, even a little too much, see the pictures to feel it
