This was the first meal of our Kansai trip, and it was yakiniku in Kyoto. The restaurant is called "Private Room Yakiniku," which, as the name suggests, means each person has a private room, making it very private.
You need to take off your shoes upon entering, and walking on the wooden floor feels very comfortable. Ordering is done via QR code, so if you're not good at Japanese, that's okay.
The clay pot rice is one of their specialties: the rice is all clay pot rice, and the staff will ask if you want it. If you do, you need to order it first, and it takes a bit longer to be served.
Both the quality of the meat and the clay pot rice are excellent, and the prices are very reasonable, so the whole meal is very satisfying. The charcoal ventilation is also very good, and you can't smell much oil smoke indoors. For the price, I think it’s a great deal!
Overall Review: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
Dixon's Fooday food review hits #200!
As we approach the Mid-Autumn Festival, it’s time for some barbecued meat to celebrate the occasion!
This time, I want to introduce a Japanese barbecue restaurant located near the Ren'ai Circle.
This restaurant is considered upscale, offering various grilling services.
They follow a refined style with a menu divided into set meals and individual items, allowing diners to choose based on their needs – whether it's a set meal or individual orders. The prices of the sets vary.
Personally, I feel this place is more about an elevated barbecue experience. Though the individual item prices aren’t low, the quality of the meat and overall flavor is quite exceptional! Additionally, the service skills of the staff in the restaurant are commendable; they can cater to our desired flavors based on our requests.
So in terms of the flavor of the food, I highly recommend it!
This barbecue restaurant is on the pricey side for Taipei, so everyone needs to consider their budget before heading here!

⭐️ Food
To start off, they offer side dishes, but don’t worry, these should be complimentary. 🤣🤣
Then comes a series of appetizers. The portions are small, but they are very refreshing and whet the appetite.
👉 Wagyu Tartare with Crispy Vegetables
👉 Colorful Tomato and Nut Salad
The two items above are more like appetizers or salads. The wagyu tartare looks small but contains wagyu beef with tiny vegetables, making it quite refreshing.
For the colorful tomato salad, there are about two or three different colors of small tomatoes, really just two bites to finish as an appetizer.
To kick things off, a small cup of chicken soup is served to set the stage for the upcoming barbecue!
Next, they bring out your selected meat platter for you to view and take photos of. Each platter is conveniently labeled to indicate the type of meat. This platter contains all the ingredients you will be enjoying today.
So when you look back at the photos, you might find that you didn’t eat some of the items. 🥲🥲🥲 But that shouldn’t happen! 🤣🤣🤣
As mentioned earlier, since this restaurant is on the pricier side, the amounts on the meat platter may appear small, but the overall deliciousness and refinement are splendid!
In the main meat platter, there are quite a variety of styles, including some A5 wagyu with gold foil and truffles. There’s also wagyu paired with sea urchin, among other unique combinations!
The textures are quite impressive. Since the staff is responsible for tableside service, they handle everything excellently. With the quality of the ingredients plus the service, the overall experience is very enjoyable!
However, it's a bit unfortunate that everything is designed to be eaten in a single bite, leaving you to savor the flavors in your mouth and stomach. 🥹🥹🥹
One item that left a strong impression was a wagyu burger patty presented between burger-like bread, aiming to create a wagyu burger sensation. It was quite special to eat.
Additionally, on the vegetable side, there was bamboo shoots, but that part felt a bit ordinary~~ Maybe it’s just that I, Dixon, am not very interested in vegetables.
Now, onto the highlight dish, the wagyu beef, paired with sea salt and gold foil, the meat is extremely tender (I personally ordered it medium rare). If you have specific doneness preferences, you can let the staff know right before they start cooking.
The portion is not large, so overall, there are about six slices, but I find each slice's texture to be fantastic!
👉 French Clear Soup
I’m not quite sure why it’s called French, but its preparation is somewhat similar to traditional Taiwanese raw beef soup. A piece of beef is placed in a cup and then submerged in a special broth, creating a perfect… something resembling beef soup. Let’s just say it’s quite unique, but in flavor, I personally think it tastes like beef soup. 🤣🤣🤣
👉 Grilled Squid with Corn
I somewhat forgot its original name, but essentially it’s a whole squid prepared and served on a plate filled with corn. The squid is deliciously fragrant, and the overall texture is very tender and tasty! I highly recommend this dish~~~~
👉 Dessert: Pancake with Ice Cream
Before we wrap up, there’s dessert. The dessert is shaped adorably into a small animal pancake, served with ice cream on the side.
Since I sat at the front bar area, I could directly watch them prepare these desserts. They use a pan to shape the pancake, creating a little animal shape, resulting in a lovely baked pancake.
Pancakes paired with ice cream are a classic match, and this tasted wonderfully, making for a pleasant finale to the meal!
Overall, in terms of food, I believe the taste level is quite excellent, and it has elevated the usually simple experience of Japanese barbecue.
They’ve added various additional ingredients and variations, like the earlier mentioned sea urchin or combinations with gold foil and mullet roe, making the flavors more vibrant!
Moreover, the tableside service here is quite top-notch; it’s not simply just grilling for you. There’s a dedicated staff member assigned to your table, so if you have any requests, you can communicate directly!
Thus, regarding the food, I rate it highly!
⭐️ Drinks
As with other Japanese barbecue restaurants, they offer a variety of beverages, including alcohol options. The drink selections are plentiful, so you can find something suitable to enjoy!
⭐️ Atmosphere
The space in the restaurant is fairly spacious, with additional tables for four or large private rooms nearby. However, if you come as a couple, you might mostly be seated at the bar area, sitting on high stools facing the open kitchen.
This is also quite nice as you get to see how various ingredients are handled in the kitchen and can watch how your food is prepared right before you!
Although you’re seated on a high stool, they’re quite comfortable and suitable for extended sitting.
The atmosphere inside is generally comparable to typical Japanese barbecue places and is not overly noisy. You might worry about sitting at the bar due to smoke issues, but my dining experience that day felt just fine!
⭐️ Service
Being a place that provides grilling services for guests, the grilling skills of the staff are crucial. They did a decent job during my visit, handling different cuts and dishes excellently, leading to a delicious meal experience.
In addition, they provided plenty of information about the dishes and your options regarding how to eat them or recommended doneness levels.
The staff members here are quite humorous and will occasionally chat with you during the meal while introducing the restaurant, so interaction is up to you!
⭐️ Price
Like mentioned earlier, the restaurant leans towards a more refined and service-oriented path, meaning some of your money goes towards service fees, plating, and overall refinement.
I think this is subjective; after all, if having someone professionally grill for you makes the ingredients taste better and saves you the effort, then this aspect is quite worthwhile!
Beyond that, the portion sizes are genuinely not large, so after finishing a set meal, you might only feel somewhat full. For those with a bigger appetite, you may still need additional individual orders, and that could significantly raise your bill.
As for the set meals, the prices are already on the higher side. 🤣🤣🤣
However, I believe that the ingredients and the resulting taste from how they’re prepared are quite fantastic, especially paired with decent grilling service. So I find the pricing acceptable.
Ultimately, it depends on everyone’s perspective on dining at upscale barbecue places. 🥲🥲
⭐️ Location
Located near the Ren'ai Circle, it's about a 10-minute walk. The closest public transport option would be Daan MRT station, but it will still take some time to walk from the station; taking a bus might be more suitable.
As for transport, you may need to walk a bit, but for a delicious barbecue place, I think this location is very acceptable!
⭐️ Overall
For a high-priced Japanese barbecue restaurant, I believe the ingredients and the flavor handling are quite commendable, and the restaurant features some unique dishes, along with a quality tableside service.
The combination of quality ingredients, cooking methods, and good tableside service contributes to a pleasant dining experience.
Beyond the slightly elevated prices, I see little to critique.
For those who enjoy trying various unique barbecue dishes, I believe you should give this place a try!
🤪 Dixon’s Rant Zone 🤪
During the Mid-Autumn Festival or unique holidays, how could one not find a good barbecue place to enjoy?
However, with such a wide price range among barbecue places, how do you choose one that is tasty yet reasonably priced?
This is the time to take your date to various barbecue restaurants to try! At the end of the meal, you can boldly declare that next time you’ll fly to Japan to indulge in top-grade barbecue while exploring Japan together~~~~
At that moment, your date's gaze will surely change completely!
Look at this, haven’t your feelings for each other deepened?~~😍😍😍
🤪 Dixon’s Rant Zone, see you next time! 🤪
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, we need to make a reservation for the holiday meal. I was initially worried about the large crowds during the festival, but fortunately, it wasn't too crowded.
Once we entered the restaurant, we had personal sets. We could also choose to pay an additional 199 to make it all-you-can-eat, but since my family members don't have big appetites, we didn't go for that this time. However, I wanted to share this option for everyone's reference.
Regarding the meal:
🌟 Beef Platter
The meats were fairly standard, matching the price. Overall, the quality was acceptable, with no particularly bad cuts. The thin slices were just a bit tough.
🌟 Classic Beef and Pork Platter
The beef variety was a bit dry, while the other meats were acceptable. However, the pork did not perform as well compared to the beef, which was a little disappointing.
For each person spending over 500 yuan, we received a free Häagen-Dazs ice cream or sorbet to choose from. On that day, vanilla ice cream was available, which made me very happy 🥳. The sorbet only had a mango flavor that day.
Overall Review: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
Dixon's Fooday mouthpiece food diary has been updated! #194
What I want to review today is the well-known Yakiniku brand, Lao Gan Pei.
Under the Lao Gan Pei Group, besides Lao Gan Pei, there are also other Yakiniku brands, like the regular Gan Pei.
Compared to Gan Pei, Lao Gan Pei is certainly a more upscale brand.
However, Lao Gan Pei has numerous branches in many places.
Dixon has been to the Xinyi branch of Lao Gan Pei several times and is quite satisfied with the dining experience.
Since I am a bit lazy, I really appreciate it when a Yakiniku restaurant offers grilling services, especially if they grill it well. It definitely adds to the quality of service!
This particular Lao Gan Pei is located on the upper floor of a department store in the Xinyi area, so it has a pretty good location.
Therefore, if you want to dine here, it's advisable to make a reservation in advance. Otherwise, if you come without a reservation, you might have to wait outside for a while to get seated!
Like other high-end Yakiniku restaurants, you can choose between a set menu or à la carte here.
I personally prefer the set menu and have chosen it during my two or three visits.
I think the portion size of the set menu is quite generous—two people can really fill up comfortably with the double portion set!
The overall quality of the meat is also quite good.
Additionally, the presentation and flavor are handled very well. It's a great place for mid-to-high tier Yakiniku.
Regarding the set menu, in addition to the basic meat platter, there are other sides to pair with it.
So if you order a set menu here, you'll not only enjoy the Yakiniku but also have a complete meal with the main dish and dessert!
In my opinion, Lao Gan Pei is relatively stable in quality.
It won’t be particularly stunning but certainly a quality Yakiniku restaurant.
If you want to enjoy some upscale Yakiniku but can't think of a place to go last minute, Lao Gan Pei is definitely a solid choice!

⭐️ Food
On that day, I came with a friend, so we ordered the double serving set.
Craft Japanese Wagyu Double Set $4580
👉 Three appetizers: fresh tomato yam noodles, cold mixed tripe, crab meat chawanmushi
For the appetizers, the tomato yam noodles were quite refreshing.
However, since I’m okay with yam, I found it decent—if everyone else enjoys yam, they’ll like it!
I highly recommend the chawanmushi.
Although the portion isn’t large, it’s very substantial.
👉 Japanese Wagyu Sushi
This Wagyu sushi is also a very famous dish from Lao Gan Pei, and I personally recommend it a lot.
Even though each person only gets one piece, the beef on top is grilled to perfection.
It’s very delicious, and I personally really love it!
👉 Chilled Beef Tongue
The beef tongue was well handled, with thin, slightly chewy slices.
It tastes pretty good, okay, okay.
👉 Meat Platters
Next comes a whole set of meat platters, including pork, beef belly, assorted veggies, etc.
This part is more of a premium meat platter, and the staff will specifically come by to grill it for you.
They kindly ask how well you want it cooked and if you have any special requests.
I think the cooking skills of the Lao Gan Pei staff are quite good, and the meat they grilled came out delicious!
If you want it less or more cooked, just inform the staff ahead of time, and they'll take care of it for you!
👉 Wagyu Dumplings
👉 Colorful Crispy Tofu
The dumplings and tofu are more like a transitional dish in terms of flavor.
The dumplings are cute and small, but I found the taste just okay.
As for the tofu, it really offers a flavor transition, giving a sense of a refreshing change.
👉 Japanese Wagyu Steak
Of course, the staff will also come by to help you prepare the Wagyu steak.
I personally thought this steak was quite nice with great quality meat.
After being cooked by the staff, it turned out tender and delicious.
👉 Little Happiness Special Curry
Next, they serve the curry, and it truly lives up to its name: it's really just one bite.
The portion served is quite small—if you want to finish it in one bite, that’s perfectly fine.
But I have to say, it's genuinely quite delicious!
Though it's really just one bite, if they could serve three or four bites, I’d find it even better! 🤣🤣🤣
After all, shouldn’t it be considered a main dish?
👉 Accompanied Tea-Pickled Rice
This rice is also part of the main course, and it has more rice than other parts of the set.
When it arrives, it’s dry white rice with some condiments on top.
Next to it, there are additional toppings you can use as you wish, along with a small bowl of tea for the guests to enjoy with it.
I personally really enjoy this mixed rice!
👉 Handmade Ice Cream
The ice cream is pretty good, but nothing particularly memorable.
After so many oily dishes, it’s nice to have a dessert to help cleanse the palate!
Extra order:
👉 Japanese Wagyu New York Fried Sandwich $880
I noticed they also have a Wagyu fried sandwich, so of course, I wanted to try it.
However, I was a bit disappointed when it arrived.
For this price point, I expected something truly impressive.
Unfortunately, it didn’t stand out from Wagyu fried sandwiches from other Japanese restaurants.
The beef didn’t have a special texture combined with the sandwich.
So, if you’re thinking about ordering this, from my perspective, I wouldn’t recommend it. 🤣🤣🤣
Overall, I was quite satisfied with the food.
The quality of the meat and the cooking methods are good because the staff grilled it for us.
It’s definitely tastier than if someone inexperienced like me were to grill it!
Whether it’s about the meat quality or the overall presentation, I think it’s of quite high caliber!
And the portions are generous.
If you ordered the double-serving set with a friend, you might find yourself quite full by the end!
One thing I think is a bit unfortunate is that at the beginning, the flavors were quite stunning.
But as you keep eating, you might start to feel a bit fatigued.
Although the later meat quality and taste are still great, you might just feel a bit overwhelmed.
So it may also require a sense of flavor transition; even though the meat is delicious, you might experience taste fatigue! 🤣🤣🤣
⭐️ Drinks
The set menu also includes a drink, which can be upgraded to alcoholic beverages at an extra cost.
I remember the drinks here being quite good, switching to other alcoholic beverages or sparkling drinks feels quite satisfying!
⭐️ Service
Since this is quite a high-end Yakiniku restaurant, table service is included.
The staff is very attentive, grilling according to different types of meat and asking about any special preferences beforehand, like how well you want it cooked.
I believe they've received professional training because the quality and flavor of the grilled meat were quite good!
Each time a type of meat was served, they also took the time to explain the dish or suggest how to enjoy it.
So overall, I found the service to be very good—well looked after!
However, if you and your friends are in a hurry to chat, discussing more private topics might end up being overheard by the staff.
Sometimes the staff might even chuckle! 🤣🤣🤣
⭐️ Atmosphere
This Yakiniku restaurant gives off a very glamorous vibe.
The space is quite large, and there are also seating areas with sofas.
I’ve been here two or three times, and every time it felt quite comfortable.
The overall atmosphere is also nice, and there isn't a strong smoke smell after eating, which is a great plus!
⭐️ Price
For typical high-end Yakiniku restaurants, the prices are slightly higher.
But I personally think their quality is quite stable, positioning itself in my book as a reasonably priced safe option.
You definitely won't regret coming here!
You can fill up quite well at this price, but if you’re looking for something even more impressive at this price point, that’s also an option.
⭐️ Location
Because this restaurant is located on the upper floor of a department store in the Xinyi area, it has a very good location.
It’s perfect for stopping by after a movie or shopping, making reservations for a great dinner!
So regarding location, I find it wonderful!
It’s great for transitioning from other activities to continue your date here for a meal and maybe head for drinks later!
⭐️ To sum up
I think this place serves as a very safe and reliable mid-to-high price Yakiniku restaurant.
It’s suitable for multiple visits, even if the menu is somewhat fixed.
The flavors, taste, and atmosphere are all great.
So if you suddenly feel like having Yakiniku and need a place to gather with friends in a mid-high price range, and can’t think of a good option last minute, then I think you should definitely come here!
After all, the food is good and the atmosphere is nice—there’s really not much to complain about at this price!
🤪 Dixon’s Mouthpiece Zone 🤪
When the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, and you’re not sure what Yakiniku to have with your girl,
those Yakiniku places outside can be very expensive, while the ordinary ones might just be too casual.
So I think you should consider Lao Gan Pei!
After all, it’s a well-known brand with stable quality.
We just want to have a smooth and pleasant Mid-Autumn Festival, and Yakiniku is a must-eat.
So why not head to Lao Gan Pei for a relaxing meal?
Yakiniku is just part of the process;
the date for the Mid-Autumn Festival is the main focus!
During the Mid-Autumn holiday, why not catch a movie in the Xinyi area first?
Then, hang out nearby, enjoy the air conditioning, and do some shopping.
We’ve already made a reservation at Lao Gan Pei.
In the evening, we can take the girl out for Yakiniku, and later, we could go to nearby bars for a couple of drinks.
Or we can go to an outdoor bar and watch the moon in the sky.
Look at this quality date itinerary!
Isn’t it bound to bring us closer to the girl? 😍😍😍😍
Dixon’s Mouthpiece Zone, see you next time! 🥰

Dickson's Fooday review is updated!
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching~ This time I’m reviewing a barbecue restaurant~~
A barbecue izakaya located in Ximen’s remote alley!
Although it mainly focuses on wagyu barbecue as its main selling point,
my impression of the wagyu barbecue wasn’t very deep on the day of the visit 😂
The meat quality was decent, but it lacked memorable features.
However, the prices are quite affordable!
So the overall value for money is very high~ 👍
Additionally, combining with the izakaya concept,
you can find a variety of beers and umeshu (plum wine) here.
The shop isn’t very spacious~
The seating isn’t overly roomy, but it isn't cramped either,
so this part is acceptable!
In terms of this restaurant's direction,
it’s basically a place for filling up with barbecue with the concept of a high-value Japanese barbecue izakaya.
It’s very suitable for a few stinky guys to meet up,
to enjoy some barbecue and shoot the breeze for a bit,
but bringing a girl here for a date might not be the best idea~ 🤣🤣

🤪🤪 Dickson’s banter 🤪🤪
Oh dear, since I’ve already mentioned that bringing a girl here isn’t a great choice,
it seems I can only meet up with my fellow stinky guys here! 🤷♂️🤷♂️
After all, back in the day, we were all about the meat!
Come on, meat! 🥩🥩🥩
No need to nitpick about the quality of the meat,
between men, it's all about getting to eat!
Just enjoy it, right? 😂
We can happily spend this dinner time chatting and laughing~
As the saying goes among friends: “Dining with you guys means eating in high style!”
Exactly! Our pocket list, besides fancy restaurants for dining with girls,
is also filled with spots that offer high value for our brothers!
After all, we need these places filled with sweat and passion, right!
🥩Oh my! Original Grill, Banqiao Cultural Store🥩
Speaking of the Mid-Autumn Festival, we definitely cannot miss out on having barbecue!
Now, it's becoming less common to grill meat outside by ourselves. 🐷
First, it's because I'm getting older and my friends are all very busy, making it hard to get together. 🥲
Second, I'm also quite lazy to clean up after grilling, which is exhausting. 😔
So every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I usually go to a barbecue restaurant with my girlfriend. 🧑🤝🧑
This time, we came to eat at Original Grill, a brand under Wang Pin. 🫅
I have to say, Wang Pin truly deserves to be the largest dining brand in Taiwan.
The quality of their restaurants is consistently good.
This time, I ordered the pure pork set meal.
I felt the amount of meat was very sufficient.
There was a large tomahawk pork chop, and the staff assisted in grilling it.
We had pork belly, Matsusaka pork, cherry duck breast (the duck breast was quite thick, not the thin kind), and another plate of pork belly with Matsusaka.
The portion of meat was very ample, making for a delicious meal.
However, I recall that in a previous visit, the bibimbap had a Korean-style kimchi pork flavor, but for some reason, it wasn't available this time, and the meat had become ground meat, which is a bit of a pity.
As for appetizers, there were two marinated ingredients that were quite tasty, so I recommend trying those.
Having lettuce 🥬 with barbecue is essential, and kimchi is also a must.
Some restaurants charge extra for these, but at Original Grill, you can get unlimited refills at no additional cost, which is a huge plus.
We ended the meal with red bean and purple rice porridge and ice cream for a satisfying finale.
What a fulfilling day!
📍Zhongshan District, Taipei City (next to Exit 4 of Zhongshan MRT Station)
A lively and long-established Japanese BBQ chain restaurant 🥩🍻🔥
It seems like the last time I ate at Kanpai was 10 years ago 😆
This time, it’s a restaurant that my friends from Hong Kong specifically wanted to come to Taiwan for! There’s no Kanpai chain in Hong Kong.
Kanpai is most famous for its 8 PM event time; currently, the event reward includes a free drink, shandy, or beer 🍻
At 8 PM, the staff creates a festive atmosphere. This time, a staff member asked us about the reason for our gathering, and at 8 PM, one of the employees introduced the key figures at our table to all customers. Most of the other tables were there to celebrate birthdays, and we all ended up singing the birthday song together 😂 It was quite special and joyful.
🥩
Order Items:
▫️ Australian chilled thick-cut beef tongue ($399):
This was my favorite item this time; the thickness of the Wagyu is substantial, and the texture is such that you can bite through it, yet it has a nice bounce back.
▫️ Fresh-cut Australian Wagyu sirloin steak ($3.33/g):
I ordered this to play the steak guessing game!
If you guess within ±5g of the actual weight, you get it for free! Plus, the staff will cook this piece for us!
In the end, the weight was quite different 😆—it was almost 300g.
▫️ Australian grain-fed brisket, salted ($380)
▫️ Salted scallion sauce belly pork ($330)
▫️ Wagyu small intestines, salted ($180)
Very fatty! It spattered a lot of sparks while grilling ⚡️ The texture is chewy and has a high degree of bounce.
▫️ Anchovy garlic cucumber ($90)
▫️ Kanpai's homemade pickled vegetables ($88)
Very crunchy! The pickling is spot on.
Highly recommend getting this to balance out the richness.
▫️ We also ordered some drinks and shandy 🍹
🍄
Will I revisit? Possibly 🤔
It’s perfect for a fun birthday celebration style!
✏️
Small notes:
🔸 The service is quite good! The staff introduces the menu, pays attention to how everyone is grilling, and they’re quite thoughtful in changing the grill nets regularly.
Environment
Heng Burnt Meat specializes in affordable personal barbecue 🔥. When dining alone, you can enjoy your own small space, and if you go with a group, there are tables where you can share the meal together 😋. The seating space is quite spacious, making it comfortable to sit and enjoy.
Meals
Today, two of us spent 💰2046 for two sets with no extra orders. Each set includes: side dishes, soup, salt and green onion, and dessert. The buffet selection includes: red tea, oolong tea, pickled vegetables, kelp, bean sprouts, passion fruit papaya, and lettuce wraps for the meat 🥬.
📍 Man's Feast Combo Set 💰980
You can enjoy up to nine types of meat, each with its own characteristics. If you tend to have a big appetite but struggle with choices, I recommend this combo set; I ate until I was so full my belly expanded 🫃.
📍 1885 Beef Feast Combo Set 💰880
You can enjoy up to six types of beef 🥩 cuts. This combo is for heavy beef lovers, as it offers various cuts of beef that are quite good, very tender, and satisfying to eat.
Parking
If you are driving 🚗, there are many paid parking lots nearby 🅿️, with prices ranging from 30-50 for half an hour. If you’re lucky, you might find a spot on the street, and there are plenty of parking spaces for scooters 🛵 as well.
Service
The restaurant uses QR code ordering, and there are thoughtful introductions of various meats on the table 📝. The speed of replenishing ingredients at the self-service bar is very fast, and clearing empty plates is also very efficient. They even proactively replace the iron plates. Overall, the dining experience was quite pleasant 👌.

Dickson's Fooday food review is updated!
Although it's full of chatter, the content is definitely heartfelt 🥺
This time, I'm reviewing a Japanese BBQ restaurant~~~
This restaurant is right next to the Zhongxiao Dunhua MRT Station.
The location is quite great, and the transportation is convenient 👍👍👍
From the entrance, the ambiance clearly reflects the concept of a Japanese BBQ.
The presentation of the grilled meat is very delicate and suitable for photos.
Though the portions are small, they are arranged very beautifully.
Additionally, the prices are moderate; not too expensive.
That day, I ordered a $1980 set with friends,
which included a beef platter, salted beef offal,
as well as a seafood platter and dessert.
Overall, the quantity isn’t especially abundant, but it's still sufficient to fill you up!
However, the quality of the meat and the dishes is average,
more like a casual BBQ restaurant –
there's nothing particularly memorable about it 🥺🥺🥺
It's somewhat hard to feel motivated to visit again,
giving off a bit of a one-time consumer vibe.
The advantage is probably the convenient transportation in the East District.
Making reservations is easy, so when you have no ideas and just want to grab a bite,
this place is a relaxed option!

Oh dear, if you’re tired of wandering the East District streets,
and you and your girl want to have some BBQ,
but you’re too lazy to spend time searching,
come here! 👋👋👋👋
With online reservations, just pull out your phone –
easily choose a time and you can come for BBQ!
The girls will definitely find it super convenient
to have a BBQ place at their fingertips!
And in the East District,
whether you want to stroll around little shops with the girlfriend,
grab some afternoon tea, or watch a movie,
you can first make a reservation for an evening BBQ to enjoy some meat.
Eat meat ~ and after eating meat, gain some meat!
As for where to go after dinner, the allure of the Xinyi area in the East District, do you still not know where to go?
The girls all want to club!
Whether to shift venues for a drink or just hang out doing something,
there are unlimited possibilities 🤫🤫🤫
Jiū Hào Kè BBQ
Located on the 3rd floor of Jiū Jiān BBQ Set Meal
The 2nd floor is for 㖂 Nǎi Seafood Hotpot
At first, I couldn't find where to go upstairs
Just bravely walk into Jiū Jiān BBQ Set Meal
After confirming the reservation with the staff on the 1st floor, they will ask you to take the stairs to the 3rd floor
Today, I opted for the 758 plan
The few things worth praising are the desserts and the drinks at the self-service bar
The drinks are in cans or foil packs
The cotton candy is roasted cotton candy, the white kind!
Not the colorful kind (seeing colorful roasted cotton candy makes me angry 😡)
It’s rare to find a place that offers takoyaki, so I was curious and ordered it
When it arrived, it was cold, so it had been reheated
Not sure if it was originally cold or just had been sitting too long
The clam soup was decent, but the wooden tray at the bottom takes up a lot of space
The quality of the meat is average, not memorable
The oysters tasted relatively fresh
When I went, it wasn’t a meal period, and there were only 2 tables of customers
The staff often gathered together to chat
You need to walk over to find them
However, they were quick to replace the grill and serve dishes
But the staff training might not be very good
At first, we thought the fire was too low
The first staff member said it was turned up to the maximum
After a while, when there was no improvement, we called another staff member who said it hadn't been adjusted
After readjustment, it was normal
I may have gotten past the all-you-can-eat phase
At the same price, I would prefer to go to a place where you can order individually.
