MADE Taipei

MADE Taipei is located at the intersection of Section 4, Zhongxiao East Road and Section 1, Da'an Road, near the bustling East District shopping area. The store is on the second floor, and the silver sign at the first-floor entrance is quite eye-catching.

Although we came to a bar, for various reasons, it wasn't suitable to drink today. So, we only ordered pan-seared cherry duck breast, private house braised appetizer platter, crispy ten-spice chicken feet, Korean cheese steamed egg, and Tsingtao beer, totaling about NT$1,400. There were actually some other dishes, but for various reasons... anyway, that's that 🥹. The minimum spending at the store is actually NT$600 per person.

Pan-Seared Cherry Duck Breast: The duck breast has a lovely pink color and a delicate texture, with the duck skin, duck fat, and dipping sauce all complementing each other perfectly, allowing the rich aroma of duck meat fat to linger in the mouth. The salad was quite standard.

Private House Braised Appetizer Platter: This is ordinary but delicious braised food. The price of NT$260 is due to it being a bar, and it is indeed tasty, though the price is quite high. The more memorable items were the "tofu, baby corn, and beef," all well-braised and flavorful.

Crispy Ten-Spice Chicken Feet: Fried foods are always best eaten hot. The crispy thin skin is sprinkled with chili flakes and garlic bits, adding spiciness. The boneless chicken feet are easy to eat without any burden. I really liked this dish.

Korean Cheese Steamed Egg: The cheese flavor makes the steamed egg rich and smooth, and the topping of shrimp roe adds a luxurious touch. Enjoying the steamed egg with shrimp roe creates a delightful symphony of two completely different textures in the mouth.

Tsingtao Beer: The dried lemon slices provide a refreshingly crisp taste, helping to reset the palate while enjoying these rich-flavored dishes at the bar.

Overall, it’s a bar with quite good culinary standards. The store on the second floor feels a bit crowded; the space isn't very spacious, and the music is somewhat loud, leaning more towards the lively atmosphere of a Friday night.

I recommend it to everyone!
