✨ Personal recommendation
◽ Premium Beef Truffle Cream Risotto ✨ $380 NTD
The truffle flavor is incredibly rich! Truffle lovers shouldn’t miss this~ The risotto is also on the softer side, making it suitable for children to eat👌 The beef has tender cartilage in the middle, which is easy to bite into, and finally garnished with black pepper and spice powder to enhance the meat's aroma.
◽ Chef's Golden Cream Shrimp Noodles (Thin/Fettuccine) ✨ $320 NTD
The ratio of golden sauce to cream is just right, rich but not greasy. It has a familiar white sauce flavor, with a hint of salted egg yolk aroma in the finish. The Fettuccine has a softer texture, and the shrimp is already shelled.
◽ Grilled Mentaiko Smoked Salmon Omelette ✨ $240 NTD
This dish is a bit heavier in flavor, and they give a generous amount of mentaiko sauce! The soft omelette contains salmon, making it suitable to order as a side to share with everyone.
◽ Chef's Special Salsa with Corn Chips ✨ $120 NTD
Unseasoned corn chips that you can savor the aroma of, paired with the chef’s special salsa, which is a bit sweet, slightly sour, and mildly spicy, a flavor I've never had outside.
◽ Mentaiko Soft French Bread ✨ $49 NTD
The bread is toasted just enough to be slightly crispy, with the mentaiko flavor just right, not too salty or bland.
◽ Lime Pomegranate Sparkling Drink $150 NTD
The ice and sweetness are fixed, with lemon slices added as decoration, making it not overly sweet and great for photos!
◽ Japanese Roasted Tea Latte ✨ $140 NTD
The roasted tea flavor is strong, with a slightly sandy texture, recommended for those who, like me, love strong tea.
◽ Worry-Relief Caramel Pudding $120 NTD
The pudding 🍮 is very tender! It's best enjoyed with caramel sauce, although I find the caramel slightly bitter; I prefer eating the pudding alone, which has a subtle egg aroma~
◽ Chestnut Tiramisu $140 NTD
Those who have seen the popular “chestnut flavored tiramisu” on the internet will know its fame, but I still prefer the traditional tiramisu recipe.
