Located near the Nan Ya Carrefour, Yi Family is a chain Italian pasta restaurant that is suitable for many students, families, and office workers. It doesn’t rely on fancy decor or high-end European style, but stands firm in the market with the approach of “super cheap, large portions, and flavors that are not mediocre.” If a restaurant like this doesn’t do well, it can come off as cheap, but the charm of Yi Family lies in the fact that it is inexpensive yet genuinely tasty!

Pink Sauce Smoked Salmon
Pink sauce is a blend of red sauce and white sauce, and if the ratio is not well-controlled, it can be overly sour or greasy. However, Yi Family's pink sauce is quite balanced, offering a creamy flavor without losing the bright acidity of the tomatoes, and surprisingly delicate. 🍅
The portion of smoked salmon is quite generous for this price, with a clear salty fragrance and no overwhelming fishiness. The overall flavor is smooth with stable seasoning, and the noodles hold onto the sauce well, making it the kind of pasta that leaves you feeling satisfied. For a budget chain restaurant, it deserves applause for its performance.

Pesto Tender Chicken + Baked
Pesto can often be a hit-or-miss, either being too oily or too salty, but Yi Family's pesto has a stronger creamy flavor with a friendly aroma that is not overly stimulating. The tenderness of the chicken is decent, cut into moderate-sized pieces, and when paired with the baked element, it elevates the overall richness.
The baked topping is fragrant and generous, and after mixing with the pesto, the flavor becomes rich and fulfilling, creating a joyful “high value for money” experience!

Garlic Spicy Stir-fried Large Shrimp
The spiciness is light and lively; while the shrimp may not be top quality, the meat is not dry and the shells are easy to peel. It is a dish that feels refreshing and enjoyable when combined.

Considering Yi Family’s price point, this plate of pasta is absolutely worth more than its price: clean seasoning, clear garlic flavor, moderate spiciness, and overall easy to eat without being complicated.
