月廬食堂

Dickson's Fooday food review is here for Hualien!
This time, I want to introduce a famous place that supposedly requires reservations a month in advance—
a mountain restaurant nestled in a dense forest,
a place with great views from high up!

On the day, a group of us arrived with several cars
and indeed, the weather was nice, the visibility good, and the scenery fantastic.
You can overlook the beautiful scenery of Hualien City from the mountains.
The view is undoubtedly amazing! 👍👍👍
Though it was a bit hot🤣🤣🤣

As for the food,
the specialty is said to be chicken—
some kind of plum chicken 🐔

But it seemed... not particularly memorable.
It's probably just a nicer version of hand-pulled chicken!
It really requires teamwork to pull apart that chicken!
Additionally, the other dishes were not particularly outstanding 😧😧😧

However, the decor and style of the restaurant were quite impressive.
It feels like dining in a fancy cafeteria with a great ambiance—
a sort of isolation from the world,
yet everyone is enjoying a meal in a luxurious hall.

The food was really quite average.
Fortunately, the overall price wasn’t too high.

The evaluation is kind of like a one-time scenic restaurant experience🤣🤣

🤪🤪 Dickson's rant 🤪🤪
If you're coming just for the plum chicken, hand-pulled chicken, or grenade chicken,
there's no need to make a special trip to Hualien's high mountains to eat here,
especially since you need to make reservations super early.
It’s just not worth it.

But if it's for the views,
I do recommend driving up to enjoy the scenery.
If it's lunchtime with nice weather,
it really gives a feeling of being high up, gazing out at the green expanse.

At this time, the girl can also gaze into the distance with you~~
bringing a distinct "Titanic" vibe in the mountains 👍
(Though I'm not sure how the night view is...)

Since you’ve specifically come to Hualien,
you should definitely take the girl into the mountains
to breathe in the essence of nature.

As for the food, well, that’s just how it is~~
