Ottawa’s top Chinese restaurants that really deliver

The Shanghai is reportedly the pioneer in Chinatown’s restaurant scene. It also wins the race for hippest, hands down. One of the reasons: drag queen China Doll is on hand every Saturday night for one of the city’s top karaoke events. The walls are laden with equally interesting art, and the mixed drinks are a cut above expectations, but you’re here for the food. While the place caters to every taste, vegetarians especially will appreciate such dishes as General Tao’s tofu. Delivery is available till closing, which can be late.
