The pumpkin shrimp shell pasta and pumpkin soup provided by the restaurant are sweet and delicious, with fresh shrimp, and the almond cream pie dessert is unique, overall offering great value for money. The pink sauce chicken and shrimp spaghetti has a rich creamy sauce combined with tomato and cheese, lightly spicy and refreshing, while the mushroom soup is rich, and the Basque dessert is sweet but not overly so. The tomato chicken spaghetti has delicate noodles, and the chicken texture is acceptable.
The restaurant has an elegant environment and a comfortable atmosphere, attracting many diners, with no empty seats shortly after opening. The surroundings are comfortable, clean, and bright, with plenty of seating and a basement.
The staff is friendly and attentive, providing thoughtful amenities such as plastic gloves, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The serving speed is fast and the service efficiency is high.

Tomato Chicken Pasta $300
The pasta is thin and can be enjoyed slowly with a satisfying chew. Although the chicken doesn't taste particularly remarkable, it’s at least tender enough to be easily eaten. Each bite leads to another, immersing me in the deliciousness of this Italian dish.
The mango snow ice cream flavor is delightful; each bite brings a chill that makes me forget about the hot pasta I just had, leaving me feeling completely refreshed.
A popular Italian pasta restaurant, with several branches that seem to have different names. The environment is comfortable, clean, and bright, with plenty of seating and even a basement. It is usually fully booked, but the food comes out quickly. There are a variety of options on the menu, and overall, I really like it.
My favorite dish is the pink sauce chicken and shrimp pasta. The rich cream sauce paired with tomato and cheese, along with a hint of spiciness to balance it out, is very satisfying. The chicken and shrimp make for a fulfilling meal, and the mushroom soup is rich and delicious. The Basque dessert is sweet without being overly so and is also quite good. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are sufficient. Highly recommended.
Taipei favorite shop 💓
Every time I come to Taipei, I must eat here. The pumpkin shrimp shell pasta has an extremely sweet and delicious pumpkin sauce, and the shrimp are very fresh, so eating it won't cause allergies.
The pumpkin soup is very sweet and tastes great; it's super delicious paired with bread!
The must-try dessert after the meal is the almond cream pie, which has a texture similar to ice cream macarons and includes almond slices. It's a tasty little snack that you can't find elsewhere! 😍
Overall, it's a place with a very high cost-performance ratio!
This pasta shop has been open for a long time at Zhongshan MRT Station. There were already several groups of customers queuing up at the door before it opened at 11:30. There are many locations on the first floor and basement of the store, and it was full within half an hour of opening.
That day, my friend and I ordered spicy grilled chicken wings. We were very considerate and came with plastic gloves. The chicken wings had less meat, and they were sprinkled with spices to add a flavor that would not be too greasy.
The shrimp and chicken pasta in pink sauce I ordered was seasoned with the sour and milky flavor of tomatoes, which I thought was delicious! The portion is also quite sufficient. I couldn't finish half of it before taking it away. However, the portion of chicken is on the small side and the shells of the shrimps have already been peeled off, which is very considerate.
For the attached dessert, I choose lava chocolate, I think everyone must order this! It was still hot when served, the chocolate inside was liquid, and it tasted very happy.
I think the environment is great, overall I recommend it!
