Cheap eats: Guide to Ele.me Salads
Introducing Ele.me! If you don’t know what it is, go ask a Chinese co-worker, they will laugh at you and make you feel like a plonker but you deserve it. Ele.me is one of Shanghai’s biggest food delivery companies, you know, the guys zooming about in blue on scooters. They have some really great cheap options for lunch and their salad selection constantly surprises us.
First thing you need to know, if you tap the search bar at the top of the page you will get loads of options that pop up below, on the bottom left you will see this "沙拉," which means 'salad,' so hitting this button will allow you to look for yourself. If you can’t be bothered (fair) then check out the list below.
(Also, most of these places have at least one deal on every day where their salads are reduced to like RMB 25 or less. So it’s worth shopping around.)

Miss Fresh is probably my favorite salad place on Eleme, they do a great chicken Caesar salad, the bacon is a bit funky but the dressing is great. It’s over priced at full price but they slash the prices of at least 2 salads at lunch times by 50% or more. Then it’s great.
