We love dumplings and we wanted to prove the experts wrong that the best dumplings in Shanghai couldn't be that place in the commercial/tourist district Xiantandi. We scoured the streets, the markets, the malls, the parks and everything in between to look for a better dumpling. But after days of searching (and, of course, indulging in some exquite, awesome dumplings) we have to admit: the best dumplings are at Din Tai Fung.

Well, not exactly. But we're so happy the 509-room, decadent Jumeirah Essex House is super gay friendly. As in, so gay friendly we're promoting it for no reason at all. Again, not entirely true. They LOVE us, as we love them. Not only is it super convenient to all the attractions gays love (theater district, hell's kitchen, Fifth Avenue and Central Park, baby!) but they just recently went through a major $90 million dollar overhaul, so expect no less for the prince(ss) you are. Also, if you can't leave home without Toto, bring your four-legged friend along, where the hotel just announced the first-ever Canine Turndown program (awesome Wagwear dog bed and dog treats created by the pastry chef). Also, a New York first, Jumeirah Essex House created an iPad wine list at their South Gate restaurant. Nothing like digitally popping a cork.
