The salted egg yolk soft shell crab with thin noodles has a rich flavor but is not overly salty, and the noodles have a nice chewiness. The seared fresh tuna salad comes with sauce and crispy toppings, offering a rich texture. The squid with creamy salted egg thin noodles is flavorful and smooth, and the tiramisu is sweet but not cloying. There is a variety of items available, the flavors are decent, and the overall value for money is high.
A restaurant suitable for group gatherings, with clean restrooms and a comfortable overall atmosphere. The Yixian branch has plenty of seats, making it easy to find a spot even on short notice. The environment is comfortable and clean, with ample seating.
The staff confirmed that the meal was complete but could proactively provide a storage basket to enhance the service experience. The service was a bit slow, but it did not affect the dining experience.
Italian pasta restaurant, with several branches, has a comfortable and clean environment with plenty of seating. During weekdays at lunchtime, there are many office workers, and the business is very good. You may have to wait a bit for the food, but it doesn't affect the experience.
They offer pasta, risotto, baked dishes, pizza, fried items, as well as salads and drinks. The variety is diverse and the menu is rich, which can basically satisfy various needs. The portion sizes and flavors are, in my personal opinion, not stunning but still decent. It's worth a try.
Location: Xinyi District, Taipei City
This is one of my favorite places. Whenever I want to eat pasta in Taipei, this place comes to mind. The space at the Yixian branch is much larger than the Qingcheng branch, and it seems there aren't as many people, making it easier to find a table when I decide to go on a whim.
🌟 Squid Ink Cream Sauce with Salty Egg Yolk Flat Noodles
The flavor of the salted egg yolk is very clear, without feeling too milky. The richness combined with the seafood makes for a very smooth experience when eating. The flat noodles are cooked to a perfect chewy texture, but due to the salted egg yolk, there is a slight oiliness at the end, which doesn’t detract from the dish’s deliciousness at all.
🌟 Tiramisu
My favorite dessert 🥰. This dish has a higher cream cheese content, but it’s not overly sweet or heavy. It pairs wonderfully and is very tasty 😋.
I also sampled a bite of the dishes my friends ordered, and every one of them was above standard. I highly recommend this place if you're around the City Hall and don't know what to eat! 😋
I should have eaten at cin cin N times; I can really get full with my large appetite!
This time I ordered:
👍 Main dish: Salted egg yolk soft shell crab with thin noodles
👍 Set B + 198 - Grilled fresh tuna salad + black tea
(Usually, I have to order C) 🤣
First of all, I have to say that the value for money is quite high; the fresh tuna in the salad, paired with the dressing and crunchy toppings, as well as the potatoes, not only satisfied my taste but also the texture! 😋 Oh my, I'm craving it again!
Then, about the main dish: the salted egg yolk flavor is really incorporated into the noodles, but it’s not too strong or salty. If you like salted egg yolk, you should definitely give this a try; the noodles have a firmer texture, which I find quite chewy!
Next, I must mention the soft shell crab itself; when I bit into it, I felt like there was crab roe inside, not just a crispy texture.
Finally, the black tea is just malt-flavored black tea. It’s clearly labeled as malt-flavored on the menu, so it’s pretty standard, nothing too spectacular.
If it's a gathering with multiple people, I definitely recommend it; everyone can share and have pizza or other types of dishes!
And lastly, the restroom was very clean, which I liked. The staff maybe seemed a bit tired and didn’t hear our orders clearly but did confirm everything. If they could be a bit more proactive in providing a basket for belongings, I think it would be even better!
Restaurant recommended by Happy Partners
The spaghetti really needs to feature the salted egg yolk series
You can tell right away that salted egg yolk is the star; it’s really delicious
The risotto has a texture comparable to that of foreign dishes
The staff suggested it could be a little softer for easier eating
And it really is (the service was great)
Overall, the main dish portion is just right and very tasty 😋
The appetizer of braised tripe did not disappoint either
Paired with toasted bread, it adds layers to the texture
Amazing, amazing, amazing!
