📍Xinyi District, Taipei City (Near Yongchun MRT Station)
A cozy camping-themed Italian pasta restaurant ⛺️🍝
Late at night the day before the holiday, I suddenly had a craving for pasta, and this restaurant was open for online reservations ☺️
The shop has clearly put a lot of effort into the appearance and interior decor, creating a camping atmosphere, although I personally find the camping chairs a bit inconvenient for face-to-face chatting.
The menu is thoughtfully designed in a newspaper style 📰 and clearly notes all the details of the dishes.
🥘
Ordered items:
💗 Pink Mushroom Salmon Noodles ($300):
The pasta was pretty standard, with the sauce leaning more towards a creamy flavor. It was a taste I could imagine, but it didn't have a surprising impact; eating too much can be cloying.
What's good is that the portion of salmon was generous, and the pieces were quite large. The noodles were cooked perfectly al dente.
🥓 Cheddar Bacon Soft-Boiled Egg ($220):
Average performance, a bit more outstanding than the previous pasta dish.
🌼 Osmanthus Oolong (served with pasta) lightly sweetened and no ice:
The restaurant has a section dedicated to hand-shaken drinks, and it was super delicious!!! It has a very strong floral aroma with a sweet aftertaste.
🤍 Set D ($195)
The side dishes were outstanding! Highly recommended.
Creamy Mushroom Soup:
Rich in creamy flavor, it feels like extra cream has been added! When served, the staff will ask if you want black pepper; adding freshly ground coarsely ground black pepper makes it even better ❤️🔥.
Rosemary Crispy Bread:
The bread has great chewiness and elasticity, and you can indeed smell the rosemary.
Sinful Cheese Fries:
Freshly fried fries with the skin on, topped with melted cheese and crumbled bacon—so indulgent! It's best to share, or it can get overwhelming by the end.
🍄
Would I revisit: Yes!
The dining atmosphere was quite comfortable, and the side dishes were excellent! Next time, I’d like to try other main dishes.

Notes:
🔸 The restaurant also has some small games; if you can give a five-star review at checkout and accurately hit 8.8 seconds (with three decimal places being zero!), you can get an additional discount! (Super hard 😅 It feels almost impossible.)
🔸 Additionally, there's a promotion: if you spend over 500, you can grab a can of cola (aluminum) and the shop will provide a plastic bag for you to take it home 🤣.
