Shanghai style restaurants in Honolulu

Yesterday evening, I accidentally discovered a restaurant that serves decent Shanghai style food. Then, I asked myself whether or not this is "the one and only." So, I searched the internet and found another one with good reviews. Instead of going on diet, I went to try it out with a friend at work (yes, we work on Sundays, too).

Chin’s Harbor View

Fine dining restaurant with [not so] spectacular marina backdrop that serves a mixture of Shanghai, Mandarin, and Szechuan Cuisine.

My review: I ordered "drunken chicken," a dish that my mom used to make with ease. I also ordered "Lion's head," but it came with four small heads, instead of a giant one that I was hoping for. The meat ball's taste was good, but too salty for me. For starch, I ordered "stir-fried rice cake with pickled veggie and shredded pork." Now, this last dish would get me to return any time!

Customer review: ... their xiao long bao (paper thin wrap filled with a seasoned pork hash and soup...flavor bursting in your mouth with every bite...served with a shredded ginger and red vinegar) and sheng jian bao (similar filling as the previous dish but in a delectably delicious steamed like dish but actually pan fried to give a tasty crispy bottom). 

My review: They are both good, but not excellent by my standard. My friend ordered a "double cooked pork with taro sandwiched in," which would be my reason to go back there and try more of their dishes.
