Thanks to ShanghaiExpat user TrueNorth, we get a summary of free local Japanese rag Concierge's rankings of the top ten Japanese restaurants in Shanghai, supposedly voted on by 100 Japanese CEOs. "Top" in this case is apparently defined by where these voters would most likely treat their business guests. TrueNorth was kind enough to include links to each of the restaurants that includes addresses (albeit in Chinese) and phone numbers; just scroll down to see the post.
