With the dramatic growth of housing complexes in the GuShan district over the last few years, new restaurants and bars are sprouting up in the area. Chimney Bar and Grill, not far from BoAi and Minghua Roads, has done just that. Upon walking into Chimney, it is evident that the affable proprietor, Joy, sees customer service as the key to success for her new establishment. Joy, who is also part owner of the long-standing Stormy Weather Pub on WuFu Road, is quick to start up a friendly conversation in either English or Chinese, and her wait staff is also eager to please. Recommended by the staff are the Cheese Steak Sandwich and the Thai Spicy Sour Seafood Spaghetti, both for NT$200. And the Guinness Stout on tap is a hard-to-find-in-Kaohsiung treat (NT$160). A rich variety of music, comfortably casual interior, free billiards, and an extensive menu, all combine with the friendly service to make Chimney a welcome addition to the neighborhood. --By Michael Brown and Pei Ling Wu, translated by Annie Liu, photos by Michael Brown
