In the spirit of eating right, we've rounded up five of the best ethically sound dishes in Shanghai. So for a guilt-free feed, chow down on these tasty treats.

1. Chocolate Tofu Pie
A slice of Anna Maya’s no-sugar vegan chocolate pie (RMB30) might be just what the doctor ordered, though it doesn’t taste like it. The wedge of crushed nuts, smoky cacao and silken tofu is so sinfully delicious that even non-vegans won’t be able to say no to seconds.

2. Chicken Broth
The organic soup at Qimin Organic Hot Pot more than just a heady fragrance and deep flavor. It’s cooked according to the 1,500-year-old Qin Min Yao, one of China’s culinary bibles. The book is also one of history’s first organic, local and “love your food” how-to manuals.

3. Chicken Caesar
zest express is run by the first farm in town to be certified organic, and the veggies it brings in are local and pesticide-free. We love the chicken Caesar salad (RMB30), which comes topped with bacon, sharp croutons and a free-range organic egg.

4. Veggie Dumplings
The sumptuous su jiaozi at Vegetarian Lifestyle are available with both spinach and carrot skins, each of which is made with the vegetables’ juices. Inside the spinach dumplings (RMB16 / 10) you’ll find a mix of cabbage, mushroom and eggplant. The carrot version (RMB18 / 10) is filled with sauerkraut and mushroom.

5. Stuffed Eggplant
The stuffed eggplant (RMB58) at Ming Tang Organic Dining is filled with savory ground pork that’s been stir-fried in garlic and oil. The outer skin of the eggplant comes with light grill marks, so you get a bit of barbecue flavor with each bite. It’s topped off with a tangy oyster sauce.
