02The beef

The animal is Black Angus, with generous marbling, per Michelin. Gouk writes that the steaks are mostly USDA, regular and dry-aged, and SmartShanghai's 2021 opening note mentions USDA Prime. The aging is the house's claim and the sources agree on the range: 28 to 180 days, done in house. The Chinese Michelin text adds the condition that 28 days is the standard and longer aging is by request. No source gives weights, the feed or the farm. The number: 28 to 180 days.

03The fire

No source names the fuel or the grill. Michelin and Gouk describe the carving and the aging, not the fire.

04The story

SmartShanghai's new-openings column of Nov. 18, 2021, reported that Shaughnessy had officially opened two days earlier and was taking guests. That's Shanghai's listing describes a modern, New York-style steakhouse with a boutique feel, founded in Shenzhen in 2018 by Calvin Su and a partner, with the same concept in both cities. It describes floor-to-ceiling windows, an onyx ceiling, a gold-lit spiral staircase, shelves with more than 400 wines, white tablecloths and cream leather chairs.
