GERMAN FOOD AND BEER AT VIVA CAFÉ

      Fine dining connoisseurs in central Taiwan will welcome yet another opportunity to savor great cuisine this month, thanks once again to Viva Cafe. From the beginning of October, this popular restaurant has launched its three-month German Food Festival, the latest installment in a never-ending rotation of international dining events. Leading into the festival is Viva's concurrent German Beer Festival, which began on September 27 and continues to October 5, showcasing the excellent Warsteiner German Beer (NT$120/bottle). The German Food Festival offers a NT$680 set meal, with soup, salad, appetizers like Fried Cheese with Tartar Sauce, and a choice from four main courses: Bratwurst Mit Sauerkraut, Roasted German-style Pig Knuckle, Prawns with Beer Sauce, and Beef Steak with Mustard Sauce. Finish off your meal with Schwarzwald Torte or Deutcher Kasetorte desserts and a coffee or tea. There is also an expanded NT$880 meal which includes a glass of Warsteiner or Apollinaris apple mineral water, and an extra bottle of German Rhine wine can be had for NT$480. A highlight of the festival will be a October 4 dinner concert with Golden Tripod Award winner Pan Lili, singing well-known German melodies. This special event is NT$880/person with reservations required.
