It doesn’t get cooler than Highline: an austere interior meets the uber-stylish social scene of Shanghai. It’s located at the top of the Ascott Hotel in Huangpu, and (as the name suggests) it offers amazing views of the area. They serve elevated Western comfort food—perfect for when you need a “stick-to-your-ribs” taste of home. A menu highlight is their sweet potato fries with nori-parmesan with a side of Korean chili aioli. Be sure to save room for a slice of pumpkin pie—it’s my favorite. The s’mores are amazing as well. This is also a great spot to go just for drinks.
