While promoting their new movie Spider-Man: Brand New Day in Shanghai, Hollywood superstars Tom Holland and Zendaya visited this tiny noodle shop in the alleyway twice for a bowl of noodles costs just 14 yuan. Wei Xiang Zhai, a time-honored eatery on Yandang road in Huangpu district, is nearly 100 years old, with less 50 sqm of dining space and just 11 tables. Shift manager Xue Mei said after the star couple's visit, they now have up to 60 orders by foreign visitors a day -- most of them get to know the restaurant by social media.
