While most buffet restaurants offer a mix of cuisine, the buffet at Shang He Wu is purely Japanese. The owner, Mr. Chiang, started the chain as a street vendor operator in Taipei city. Now he is the owner of 10 Shang He Wu restaurants. His success lies in the quality of the food served. For one low price, diners can enjoy dishes such as raw oysters, crab, eel and lobster.

Recently, this restaurant has been importing king crabs from Japan to form part of its crab hot pot, with goes great with oolong noodles. There are more than 200 dishes offered each meal time. Sashimi, Japanese beef stew, Kobe roast beef, shark's fin pot, all sorts of stir fried dishes and seafood barbecue will all ensure you walk away from the table supremely satisfied. They even have Haagen Dazs ice cream. Parking is available in the paid lot across the street. Receive a coupon for one hour of free parking for puchases of NT$500 at this restaurant.
