In 1996, Zhang Shengji entered Shanghai and became one of the first Hangzhou restaurants to enter Shanghai. Founded in 1988, this well-known Hangzhou restaurant in Hangzhou has a history of 30 years.

Zhang Shengji can be described as a typical representative of "one trick fresh", a dish of dried bamboo shoots and duck pot is famous all over the world, and even has become a food memory of a generation of Hangzhou people. The selection of ingredients for the old duck pot is strict: duck, you have to choose a mallard female duck that is more than a year old, and the size is about three and a half catties; For the Jinhua ham, you need to choose the hoof part, which is more suitable for stewed soup; Flat tip, take the product of Lin'an Tianmu Mountain, go to the old roots, tear the strips and cut them finely, and soak them in cold water for an hour, so that they are tender and sweet. When steaming, the leaves of the wild mountain dumplings in the casserole are at the bottom, the materials are inserted, and the high heat and medium heat are experienced in turn, and the stew is completed for five hours. When the old duck pot is served, the soup is thick but not greasy, the old duck is crispy but not rotten, and the taste is smooth and mellow.

In addition to the bamboo shoots and duck pot, Longjing shrimp and West Lake osmanthus lotus are also popular dishes of Zhang Shengji. Longjing shrimp is made of small river shrimp, the meat is elastic, there is no shrimp smell, and the tea is used as a decoration; The West Lake osmanthus lotus root is sweet and glutinous, with a slight osmanthus fragrance, and the taste of the lotus root is hard. The taste of the appetizer is acceptable, including pork belly, pork tongue, duck tongue, river shrimp, and small abalone. Hangzhou Bang's famous dishes such as shrimp and fried eel, West Lake vinegar fish, Dongpo meat, dry fried two crisps, Hangzhou braised duck, Hangzhou-style braised fish balls, etc., are futile, lackluster. Zhang Shengji's river shrimp, eel, anchovy and other most of them are frozen ingredients with discounted freshness, Zhang Shengji is a chain restaurant, frozen ingredients are understandable, but the price of the restaurant is higher than that of grandma's house and other new cheap Hangzhou cuisine restaurants, and the positioning is quite embarrassing.

At present, Zhang Shengji has three branches in Shanghai, the oldest one is located in Lujiazui Super Brand Mall, the decoration is simple and generous, without losing grade, the toilet is relatively old, and the private room along the river has a view of the Huangpu River, and the minimum consumption is 2,000 yuan. The other two stores are located in Raffles City on Changning Road and Pudong Lilac International Business Center, both of which are listed as "Zhang Shengji PRIME", which is supposed to be an upgraded version of Zhang Shengji, but in fact, except for the renovation update, the two stores have hardly improved compared with the "Zhang Shengji" brand. Zhang Shengji's service level is also quite average, the quality of the waiters is uneven, although most of them can be warm and friendly, but there are not a few people with a loose attitude, loose management, there is still a lot of room for improvement. Relatively speaking, Zhang Shengji is more suitable for daily family meals than business banquets.
