薔薇廳 - 兄弟大飯店
The breakfast at the Brothers Hotel in Taipei continues the tradition of this long-established hotel with its steady and friendly atmosphere. The restaurant is located on the upper floor of the lobby, spacious and bright. While the decor has a slightly dated feel, the overall cleanliness and comfort are commendable, and the service staff is friendly.
The breakfast on the upper floor is mainly buffet-style. Although the selection is not as extravagant as large five-star hotels, it offers a complete range of basic Chinese and Western dishes. The Chinese section includes porridge and side dishes like peanuts and gluten, which have a standard flavor. The Western portion offers toast, scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausages, alongside juice, milk, and coffee—simple yet adequate.
I first served myself a bowl of plain porridge with side dishes, which was refreshing. Then I tried the scrambled eggs and bacon; the taste and texture were similar to those of typical business hotels, not outstanding but also without any mistakes. The croissant had a soft texture, and it became crispier after toasting.
Overall, the breakfast at Brothers Hotel is a practical business breakfast: sufficient variety, stable flavor, it won't disappoint anyone, nor will it provide excessive surprises. If they could add some signature dishes or local snacks, it would enhance the experience. However, considering the comfortable dining environment and convenient location, it’s still very suitable for business travelers or families to enjoy.
