shanghai-style zongzi

Hi all,

After an experience with a TERRIBLE Shanghai-style zongzi (from NJ), I'm on the search for the good stuff. May May Bakery used to have them, but where can I find good ones now that it's gone? The ones at the Canal St. Kam Man are passable, but does anyone know of any other vendors? Most of the street vendors don't sell Shanghai-style (meat only, no peanuts or eggs, rice coated in some sticky brown sauce), as far as I can tell.

Thanks!

    you might want to try some of the shanghainese restaurants in the city...most of them sell them in the restaurant, they are not on the menu and you have to ask them, but they are usually behind the counter
