Alvin & Anita Coffee Inn is a new dining option in the YiZhong street shopping district. Owners Alvin and Anita serve delicate Italian dishes with creative spices. These include: Baked Fish Filet with Herbal Leaf (NT$228), Rosemary Chicken Filet (NT$198), Wild Mushroom Stew with Rice & Herbs (NT$148), and the Herbal Hot Pot (NT$168-198), just to name a few. The chefs put a lot of skill and effort into every meal but, when it comes to pasta, they recommend the Clam with Cream Sauce Spaghetti (NT$138)—if you like creamy and rich flavored pastas, then you should definitely try this dish out. Alvin and Anita also come up with seasonal dishes to keep customers pleasantly surprised. This summer, they introduced a refreshing dish called the Lemon Chicken Au Gratin Rice (NT$168); other than that, they also offer vegetarian dishes (NT$138-168) for a healthier option. Apart from great food and a comfortable setting, Alvin & Anita has a friendly staff and good service. --By Marlene, translated by Ann Lee
