Summary: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
Dickson's Fooday Mouthful Review is updated!
This time we're at a high-end steakhouse with a view in Taipei!

Are we here for the view, the steak, or the atmosphere?
Or is it all equally important?
As a steak lover and local guide, I'm so looking forward to this! 😚😚😚

We were a group of four dining together.
As soon as we arrived at the entrance, we felt the elegant atmosphere.
Right from the start, it gave off a high-end restaurant vibe,
perfect for a date or celebrating a special occasion!

The large restaurant sign at the entrance
had many people taking pictures with it,
boldly indicating their visit.

On that day, we even brought our own red and white wines,
planning to celebrate with a luxurious treat for food lovers.
The restaurant happened to have a promotion
where we didn’t have to pay a corkage fee. 👍

Now let's dive into the analysis!
For seating, we were placed at a round sofa table for four,
which was quite comfortable and not crowded.

The distance between tables in the round area
ensured we weren't easily affected by our neighbors' dining experience.

However, the round table was somewhat far from the scenic views at the floor-to-ceiling windows.
On that day, the small two-person tables by the window were constantly being turned over with new guests!
It seems everyone really loves high-altitude views!

Now about the food,
of course, at a steakhouse known for its steaks,
what else should we enjoy besides the steaks?

We ordered two main course steaks for four people,
and since we wanted to understand the difference in dry aging,
the decision was made: I want it all!
Let's see how it tastes!

Indeed, the dry-aged method
had slightly crispier or harder surface textures,
but inside it was still tender with a nice contrast.

Considering the price difference,
the dry-aged steak tasted slightly better, but it was much more expensive.

Overall, dry-aged steak did have a different flavor,
yet the regular wet-aged steaks were still top-notch,
although nothing particularly stunning. 🥺🥺🥺

Additionally, we ordered the Angry Shrimp appetizer,
which was a fairly standard shrimp appetizer,
just to taste it. 🥺🥺

Finally, we had to get the chocolate cake that everyone raves about!
How could we miss it?
As expected, the cake was enormous,
and even four of us couldn't finish it!

The chocolate cake was great,
but isn't it a bit too big and sweet?

Since there was a birthday celebrant among us,
the restaurant also provided a birthday cake.
Though it wasn't as good as the chocolate cake,
the flavor of the birthday cake itself was also wonderful!

In terms of service,
it was very attentive. Whether it was introducing the menu while ordering,
how to eat when the dishes were served,
or refilling water and wine,
everything was professional and timely.
The service was commendable.

They also engaged in friendly conversation with guests,
introducing us to the steak wines and other restaurant information!

For a high-end steak restaurant in Taipei,
I personally think this place is perfect for dates or celebrating special occasions.

However, the view and atmosphere are about 70% important,
while the food has only about 30% impact.

After all, sometimes the atmosphere matters more than the food!
So I’d say you should come during significant moments,
as it is filled with a sense of occasion! ❤️❤️

If someone proposes here, I wouldn't be surprised!

As for the price,
how inexpensive can you expect a top-notch steak restaurant to be? 🥲

🤪🤪 Dickson's Mouthful 🤪🤪

Gentlemen of significant occasions,
how can we create a sense of ceremony?
Money spent can definitely set the basic tone!

Don't let the girls tease you for being a straight man!
Just look at the atmosphere of the upscale restaurant,
the attitude of the servers,
and the view out of the window—
this is the feeling of ceremony!

Bringing a girl to places like this
is bound to make her feel elated.
Isn't a sense of ceremony created just like that?
Girls suddenly become more talkative and gentle!

Perhaps she secretly thinks in her heart,
"Wow, dining here, could he...
pull out a diamond ring? Present flowers?"

"Oh no, I'm too casually dressed today!
What if a bunch of cameras show up later?
What should I do?" 🫠🫠🫠

These videos would last a long time,
and might even be projected for others to see!

Wow! Girl, you're overthinking this!
This might just be the suave guys' way of trying to give you a sense of ceremony!

But to you gentlemen!
A sense of ceremony really needs $$$ to stack up!

Don't randomly spend at such places without a special reason!
It's easier to go from frugality to luxury,
but hard to go from luxury to frugality!

You can't spoil the girl's appetite,
thinking a small celebration
needs to start at this level of restaurant.

Think about it: this meal could cost you
several hours of your work salary!
Working from dawn till dusk,
just to build up this sense of ceremony.

I guess this is love!
But also a good way to evaluate her feelings for you.
If you bring her to such an extravagant meal,
how does she react and feel? 🥺🥺
Oh dear, if she's a princess, just run away!!!

Getting sidetracked—
In closing, I sincerely recommend
you consider adding this restaurant to your list for major celebrations
and booking a table in advance online
before special occasions arrive.
It's best to choose a table by the window;
not only do you get the atmosphere and the view,
but also the steak!
With these feelings, isn't she bound to be thrilled?

All set!
Date restaurant—check!
But don’t forget to take care of your wallet! 😚😚
