Le Daily: New Sandwich Bar in Jing'an, Shanghai (Closed)
This venue is now closed. For more restaurants in Shanghai, click here.
Le Daily is a sandwich bar in Jing'an serving up a rotating menu of sammies alongside cocktails, natural wine and coffee.
It literally just soft opened yesterday. I popped over real quick to sample the sandwiches and they're great!
And I do predict that this place is going to be rammed.
About Le Daily
Behind this cozy little project is a powerhouse team: Francois Seguin from uber popular natural wine bar SOiF next door; Michael Chen, The Cannery mixologist, Laiba, and PAO soda co-founder; and Andrew Moo (Taste Collective/Two Hands Burger) consulting on the food menu.
There’s coffee for the daytime crowd; beer (¥58/Taihu lager or Bravo Dreamcatcher Session IPA) and cider (¥58/Galipette) on tap. Also on tap will be housemade kombucha.
Dirty Coffee (¥23, add ¥3 for Oatly, ¥3 extra double shot)
The Sandos: Four Sandwiches
Currently there are four sandwiches, which are riffs on the classic. Sandwiches will rotate daily(ish) and they’ll have other daily specials, plus a small bar snack selection to compliment the drinks. There are also salads (¥48); add on a salad to your sandwich for ¥25.
Tomato & Labneh (¥58) – Vegetarian. Heirloom “ox heart” tomato, house-made labneh, housemade ricotta, fermented beetroot slices, and sprouts on ciabatta. The labneh is fresh out of the fridge cold. It’s such a refreshing sandwich. My favorite of the four.
Shanghai Reuben (¥88) – A twist on the classic. The brisket takes seven days to make. Australian brisket is first cured in hongshao spices, then air-dried, and then glazed with more hongshao sauce. Served on sourdough with sauerkraut and emmental cheese. (160g of meat.) Second favorite.
Eat Your Greens (¥58) – Another vegetarian sandwich. Tightly packed with broccolini and kale, fried shallots, mozzarella, mimolette cheese, confit garlic and topped off with lemon mayonnaise, served on whole wheat sesame sourdough.
Continental Roll (¥78) – A healthy helping of ham, mortadella and salami sopressa, a bright tapenade, emmental, smoked provolone, and mixed salad.
All pickles are made in-house. Upcoming new sandwiches feature a cubano and gravlax.
Natural wines by the glass (¥68/red, ¥78/white). Cocktails will be on the menu shortly—when they open up evening hours, which will be soon, guessing a week or two.
Soft opening!
