泰集 微風信義店

📍Xinyi District, Taipei City (MRT City Government Station)
A stunning Thai-style all-you-can-eat 🇹🇭🐘

For a company dinner, we chose from many buffet restaurant options, and the one we finally selected was this Thai-style place. One reason was that this buffet operates on an order-based system 😆, so we didn’t have to get up to pick up food ourselves.

Located on the 4th floor of Breeze Xinyi, there weren't many people during weekday lunchtime, the food was served quickly, and most of the staff were very friendly uncles and aunties ❤️‍🔥.

✨ Thai cuisine all-you-can-eat classic + luxurious dishes $1,099 (plus a 10% service charge)

Notable dishes:
🌛 Moon Shrimp Cakes
My favorite dish; when it arrived, I thought it was the thickest moon shrimp cake I've ever seen!
The shrimp paste wasn’t blended very finely, and you could still see the whole shrimp pieces, which added to the texture.

🦐 Thai Spicy Raw Shrimp (luxurious dish)
These are completely raw shrimp, seasoned with cilantro, chili, and garlic, which made them completely free of fishy taste. The texture was even smoother than regular fresh shrimp sashimi.

🐔 Pepper Chicken
🌶️ Spicy Cold Slices

More ordinary dishes:
🐮 Green Curry with Beef
🔥 Spicy and Sour Fresh Shrimp Soup (might be too salty as we ordered it with strong flavors, and it lacked a bit of shrimp taste)
🥤 Thai Milk Tea (on the sweet side, with no tea flavor)

🍄
Will I return? Maybe 🤔
For the selection we chose this time, I feel it’s a bit too pricey if I were to pay myself. The dish variety is mostly strong-flavored options, and a lot of it pairs with rice, which fills you up quickly.
If I come back, I would consider returning just to order the moon shrimp cakes 🤤
