Shanghai boasts one of China's best and most distinctive cuisines.Influenced by its position just south of the Yangtze and at the mouth of the Huangpu,the region abounds in a selection of freshwater fish and shellfish.Dishes from this area are lightly and delicately seasoned.Shanghai's people have a 'sweet tooth',and more sugar is used in Shanghai than in any other part of China.Shanghai's neighbors also contribute to the diversity of the area's cuisine:Hangzhou,known for its West Lake carp; Zhejiang to the west,for its vinegar; and Shaoxing,for its warmed rice wine.
