🎭 URBAN PARADISE Xinyi Store
📅 2025/07/26 (Saturday) Lunch
🏠 5th Floor, No. 11, Songgao Road, Xinyi District, Taipei City

🥂 The grand opening attracted a huge crowd; I arrived at 11:15 and already saw a long line, almost a centipede 🐛. I didn't get seated until just before noon. The atmosphere was truly an explosion of sound, light, and taste, very much like dining at a buffet in a nightclub 🪩🎧.

🍸 The slightly tipsy vibe is real, with bartenders mixing drinks on-site and a vending machine selling beverages. My favorite was the "Urban Paradise," which features pineapple coconut milk—beachy vibes but with a very light boozy taste. The scallops were definitely worth trying, and the hand rolls and sashimi were quite fresh, with many highlights in the hot food area.

🍖 Dishes like cumin-roasted pork belly, corn chowder version of chawanmushi, "Happy Town" goose noodle soup, garlic clam soup, and salt-grilled Matsusaka pork with spicy pineapple sauce surpassed expectations overall 👏🏻.

🍰 The dessert area is quite creative with options like cinnamon sugar-glazed donuts, torched lemon tarts, and a collaboration ice cream from "Nuan Wei Jia." 🍦 The maple bacon milkshake is a perfect balance of maple-flavored bacon and vanilla ice cream—sweetness just right.

📸 The overall atmosphere is characterized by elaborate decor and play of light and shadow. The space is spacious with enough distance between tables, and the curtains create a dramatic feeling. The music also matches the rhythm, making it perfect for birthdays or gatherings ✨.

💰 Holiday lunch is NT$1690 + 10%. There are a total of nine major dining areas (Ocean Bar, Breeze, Merriment, Viva, Happy Town, Fragrance, Crisp, Wonderland, Oasis), where you can enjoy the atmosphere as well as the creativity ✨.

At the venue, there’s a bartender who makes special cocktails on the spot 🍸 and there’s also a coin-operated beverage machine! I highly recommend the "Urban Paradise" drink: pineapple + coconut milk + a hint of alcohol flavor, it’s delicious and smooth~

🍩 Cinnamon Sugar Glazed Donut Those who love cinnamon will absolutely fall in love with this one! The outer layer is fried to a crispy crunch, coated with a layer of sweet glaze and a noticeable yet not overwhelming cinnamon flavor. One bite reveals a fluffy and layered texture, with a high sweetness that is completely not cloying. It's my number one in the entire dessert area! 🎯

The left 🍋 is a crispy lemon tart. It's perfectly tangy and not too sweet—super suitable as the finishing bite!

Maple bacon + milk ice cream is super compatible!

🥞 Scallop Maple Butter Pancakes This dish is super similar to McDonald's breakfast 2.0 version 😂 The pancake itself has the familiar sweet and moist texture, topped with a grilled scallop and drizzled with maple butter sauce, creating a surprisingly harmonious combination of salty and sweet flavors! Although it takes a bit of time to prepare, it's really delicious, so you should give it a try!

🍍 Treasure Island Grilled Pineapple At first glance, it looks like regular grilled pineapple, but one bite reveals it's incredibly juicy! The freshly grilled pineapple has a slightly charred aroma, with a chewy yet tender texture, and it retains the fruit's natural sweetness. When you bite into it, it bursts with juice—so good that you'll want to get more after finishing!
