Fu Hehui is a leading vegetarian restaurant in Shanghai and a new vegetarian restaurant opened by Fu Yuan Restaurant Group, following the prestigious Fu 1015, Fu 1088 and Fu 1039 restaurants. The three words "Fu and Hui" are not only the brand habit of starting with the word "Fu", but also come from the owner's understanding of "Fu Hui Double Cultivation".

As a landmark vegetarian restaurant in Shanghai, Fu Hehui is a frequent visitor to major food lists, not only has won the "Best Chinese Restaurant" and "Outstanding Vegetarian Restaurant" awards issued by Dianping Black Pearl Three-Diamond Restaurant, Time Out Shanghai, City weekend and other magazines, but also won one Michelin star for two consecutive years. In the latest list of "2018 Asia's 50 Best Restaurants" released by the authoritative British food magazine "Restaurant", Fu Hehui jumped from 48th last year to 30th.

Fu and Hewlett Wai are the same as Fu 1015, Fu 1039 and Fu 1088, and they are both under the management of Chef Lu Yiming. Lu Yiming is one of Shanghai's most sought-after celebrity chefs, having been with Fu Yuan Restaurant Group for more than a decade, and is currently the Executive Chef of Fu Series Restaurants, as well as the Food and Beverage Consultant at Mandarin Oriental, Shanghai and Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou, at Jinsha Room.

All of Fu Hehui's dishes are created by Lu Yiming, and when formulating the menu, Lu Yiming avoids the imitation meat routines of many vegetarian restaurants, and truly develops new dishes from the perspective of "vegetarian". Most of the dishes are named after the main ingredients, such as the most popular "avocado", "banana", "walnut crisp" and "pea", and the simple blank name not only reflects the chef's respect for the ingredients, but also leaves room for the imagination of diners. The restaurant does not offer an à la carte menu, only an 8-course set menu, which is divided into three sets according to the different ingredients: 580 yuan, 780 yuan and 880 yuan, and different dishes will be changed every season according to the seasonal ingredients. Fu Hehui is quite strict in the selection of ingredients, and there are many top ingredients from all over the world such as truffles and wild matsutake mushrooms in the dishes, and Lu Yiming pays special attention to the matching of flavors when developing dishes.

"Potato" is a popular pre-dinner snack with a crust wrapped in a crust of mashed potatoes that burst out with a single bite. "Avocado" is made by cutting mango, tomato, and avocado into pieces, and then making it into a hand-rolled shape and standing on a transparent glass pillar, which not only looks like a steaming ice cream, but also tastes very refreshing. The "truffle" is a soft and glutinous eggplant with a black truffle on the inside, a white truffle foam on top, and a lily and asparagus on the side. The "porcini mushroom" preparation method is full of creativity, the gently roasted porcini mushrooms are sealed in a glass jar, and then smoked with fruit wood, the dish is served on the table and the lid is opened, and there are repeated light smoke wafting out, and the aroma of porcini mushrooms is also coming to the nose, and you can also dip it in a little cream sauce when eating, the taste is fatty but not greasy. Stir-fried Italian Rice Noodles with Dried Mushrooms is the restaurant's signature dish, the rice-grain-shaped pasta is moderately soft and hard, and the umami of the dried mushrooms has been completely integrated into the noodles, leaving a fragrant taste on the cheeks when chewed. Each dish is creative and flavorful, enough to make people look at vegetarian food.

The restaurant is located in an old bungalow on Yuyuan Road, and the gray-white building and lack of conspicuous signage make it easy to ignore its existence. A row of bamboos is planted on the outside of the restaurant, echoing the inscription on the wall of the restaurant, "I would rather eat no meat than live without bamboo", and the crisp and tall bamboo is particularly eye-catching, and has become an identification object for many first-time diners. The restaurant space design is designed by the well-known domestic designer Lv Yongzhong, occupying three floors, the first floor is spacious and open, you can see all kinds of award certificates neatly displayed when you enter the door, and the only room is placed with a long dining table, which can accommodate 20 people at the same time, and a long scroll of calligraphy in front of it highlights the dignified atmosphere of the whole private room. The dining area on the second floor is mainly separated by screens, which not only improves the privacy of dining, but also has a strong aroma of books. The third floor is all independent private rooms, the layout of the cloister is cleverly designed, and the partition of glass and solid wood is an ethereal look.

After each dish is served, the service staff will explain the ingredients and preparation methods, and the whole meal service is timely, professional and no additional service fees, which is rare in restaurants of the same grade. The disadvantage is that the restaurant has clear rules for ordering, no matter how many peers at the same table, each table can only choose a maximum of 2 set meals; If you are traveling with 2 people, you can only choose one set meal, which may have a certain impact on diners who want to try it. The restaurant is located on the side of Yuyuan Road, there is no parking nearby, but there is a substitute parking service. The restaurant is very popular, so if you want to go there, it is best to make a reservation 3-5 days in advance.
