Chinese New Year is just about here, and you know what that means: problems finding delivery places that will still be open. No worries, here’s a list of places you can use during CNY who will bring whatever you need right to your door! Enjoy, and happy year of the rooster! 

1. SUPERMARKET

Fields (www.fieldschina.com), will have an adjusted delivery schedule of one or two times a day (they normally do 4 every day). They will also only be operating in Shanghai. Dairy, vegetables, snacks, frozen food… all packed in one and ready to make its way to your door.

2. DINNER/LUNCH DELIVERY

Sherpas, Mealbay  and Elema will still be open but some of the restaurants they deliver from may not be, check with the restaurant or APP to find out before ordering. 

3. WINE & LIQUORS

Drink Kuaidi and Auchanwines will be delivering during CNY. So will Bottles Xo, but we should give them a special shout out because it's the marketing team who will be delivering during CNY.

6. FRUITS & VEGETABLES

Organic farm in Pudong since 2004, BIOfarm will not be delivering from January 28th- February 2nd.   GOMA Green will also suspend services because the farmers are getting some well deserved rest. 

7. CHEESE

Cheese Republic is closed January 27th- February 3. 

Maison Traiteur  told us they really, really want to stay open, but they’re still in the process of finding a willing courier. We’ll provide an update once they let us know but you can always call to ask if you’re dying for cheese: 021 61679503.
