Pictured: Beef sukiyaki, rice with mountain veggies, homemade agedashi tofu and shrimp. Merely snippets of the amazing lunch special offered daily at Sumie Nouvelle Cuisine Japonaise at the San Want Hotel. My heavenly main course came accompanied with a hearty salad, assorted sashimi (really fresh fish), three small plates (the appetizers vary day to day), rice with mountain vegetables, miso soup, dessert (mine was a piece of tiramisu mochi), and coffee/tea. Extravagant much?!
Total damage: 750 NTD, which comes out to be roughly US$23

I love Taipei. I attended middle school and high school there, my parents still live there, and gosh darn it, the food in Taipei is to-die-for.
As usual, much of my voyage home this past winter was spent chowing down. And why not? We're the Chows! With le cub in tow, I felt a great sense of responsibility. It was my duty to not only show him a good time, but good grub as well! With my epicurian momma nearby, le cub would surely leave Taipei with his tummy not only smiling, but bulging.
For the sake of aesthetics (I personally detest uber-long blog entries because they look ugly), the following Taipei food entries will be kept short. Photo, location, and maybe a tip on ordering? That should do. After checking out our photos, perhaps you'll find that a trip to Taipei for YOU is long overdue!
Happy New Year!!!
Our tummies are smiling,
Le cub and cougar
