Noodle Bull at 1933

There's a former abattoir in Shanghai called 1933, recently renovated and transformed into a hip, ultra-modern entertainment complex filled with restaurants and curio shops. It's not everyone's cup of tea for a weekend destination in Shanghai, but if you're fascinated by the architectural wonders of a bygone era, this is a fascinating place to spend an afternoon exploring.


There's a Taiwanese noodle restaurant called Noodle Bull on the second floor of the labyrinthine complex. I was fascinated by the decor, a mix of gothic hip with Chinese decorative touches. Food was typical Taiwanese noodle shop variety, and was actually rather decent.
