How locals do it

A 生煎 (pan-fried bun) specialist within walking distance of Nanjing Road but away from the worst crowds. The 鲜肉生煎 is the baseline; the 蟹黄鲜肉生煎 is the richer version.

Don't get this wrong

Bite a hole first to release the soup, or it will squirt. It closes in the evening (19:30), so come earlier in the day.
