VISITOR RATINGS & REVIEWS
Since
the success of Amaroni's Little Italy on ChangChung
Rd, Larry Quarmley has led his team on a new venture,
the Cosmopolitan Grill. Different from the business
and family clientele of Little Italy, Cosmopolitan has
chosen the younger crowd of XiMen Ding, drawing in a
more vibrant crowd. Larry designed the overall ambiance
of the restaurant, with tiffany lamps, crafted tables
and chairs, retro decorations from the '70s and '80s,
pop culture wall hangings and huge windows. The menu
is enthusiastically explained by the staff, stirring
up one's curiosity. And what is served is always a pleasant
surprise, demonstrating just how well Cosmopolitan knows
about having a good time! Set menus are reasonably priced
(NT$160-NT$260). Larry insists that the ingredients
used here can definitely be compared with Little Italy.
Chef Larry and Manager Amy both recommend the Trump
Towers Warm Beef Salad with Truffle Dressing, the Fire
Pit Smoked Ribs, the London Broil with Wild Mushroom,
the Roast Chicken Stuffed with Blackened Catfish, the
Cardamon Roast Chicken with Saffron Sauce, the Monkey
Shrimp Creole and the Braised Steak. And don't forget
to try their well-known desserts! --By Josie Wu, translated
