Element Fresh vs. Wagas
I think I'm going through a phase when food is always on my mind, probably because I'm trying to be on a diet while being stuck in Sweden with no things to do.
I have been to Element Fresh (Huai Hai Rd/Xiang Yang Bei Rd) three times, and been to Wagas (Huaihai Rd and the one in Pudong by Nextage) three times as well.
Both Element Fresh and Wagas serve western fresh food like salads, sandwiches etc.
Menu selection: This is hard but I think Element Fresh has a more extensive menu (although Wagas have awesome pasta for only 28RMB after 6pm and really good desserts for only 15RMB)
Smoothies: Element Fresh wins. Totally. But don't choose Tropial storm, it's horrible.
Taste: Wagas wins, everytime I've been to Element Fresh I really can't find anything special with their food, plain taste.
Price: Wagas has some good deals depending on what time you go, Wagas has cheaper alternatives while the prices in Element Fresh are all pretty the same. Be prepared to pay around 60RMB to get full at both places.

Interior: Element Fresh, definitely!!! At least the one on Huaihai Rd. The interior there is pretty awesome, you can sit on the roof when it's not winter, and you get a very nice view.
Service: Awesome in both places, although it took almost 40 minutes for my sandwich in Element Fresh once. I guess Wagas wins.

The usual "Swedish" pizzas that you can find in Orebro - and everywhere else in Sweden - easily beat the two gay hangouts you mention. How about tunnbrod and cheese? Or a traditional Swedish breakfast? I miss Sweden. Shanghai is crap.
LOL
well, Tunnbröd and cheese is really good as well. But nothing beats the streetfood in Shanghai, shenjian baozi or guotie. Mmmmmm
Why don't you just go to IKEA in Shanghai, they sell tunnbröd there. I prefer hällakaka or hönökaka over tunnbröd though.
