     Herbs is located within a department store, but the interior has an ingenious New Deco look: black and white, well-lit and simple, with a large blackboard adorning the wall. The blackboard is covered with writing, but diners can get only a vague impression of what it means. The interior features a glass facade and a skilful arrangement of single and double seats. An open-style kitchen lets one see the chef prepare dishes. As its name suggests, this restaurant offers food with an herbal theme. Herbs are added to give the food a simple and light feeling. At the same time, a distinctive fusion flavor is evident. The menu includes Roasted Basil Lamb Chop And Risotto, Stewed Rosemary Beef Knuckles, and Beef Fillet Steak With Green Pepper Sauce. The manager, Bruno, welcomes people with a smile, and especially recommends the Oregano Seafood Soup (NT$220) and Herbs Baked Seafood (NT$450). Many drinks and deserts are available; people are often curious about the Soy Milk Latte (NT$140), which combines coffee and soybean milk. The Cappuccino Cheesecake (NT$110) helps add to the restaurant's fragrant aroma. -- By Josie Wu, Translated by Michael Le Houllier
