"Zhuan Zhuan discovered that the pasta restaurant is located in the Gongguan shopping district of Zhongzheng District, Taipei City. The nearest MRT station is Gongguan Station Exit 1, about a 3-minute walk away. The shop's sign is currently missing, making it difficult to spot from across the street. The shop is not large, with about 22 seats, and the distance between tables and chairs is quite close.
Customers find their own seating for dining in, and the staff provides a paper menu. After filling it out, customers place their order at the counter to pay, with cash and a variety of payment methods available. The restaurant also takes delivery orders, with the tablet ringing non-stop.
For dining in, customers can grab free drinks, which are quite mild in flavor. I ordered corn chowder and garlic bread for $60, and it was served quickly. The corn chowder was of the kind that is commonly offered as free (it used to be free, but now there's a charge); it had very little corn and was quite watery, not very good. The garlic bread was decent.
Since my appetite was larger, I enlarged two types of pasta for an additional $20. The white sauce chicken penne: the pasta was not cooked very soft and was a bit hard; the sauce was extremely bland, watery, not thick, and definitely not good. The pine nut basil clam pasta: the sauce had some oily basil flavor, and the quality of the clams was okay; it tasted not bad.
This restaurant seems to target university students looking for a hearty meal, so I can't be too picky about the space and decor. The convenience of payment and the availability of free drinks are decent. However, the food is not acceptable; a budget restaurant should not equate to low-quality dining. In conclusion: I won't be returning."
