From its comfortable indoor setting to the bright, garden seating area underneath the windows, Toscana is filled with southern European charm. In addition to Toscana's attractive surroundings, the superb selection of ingredients has in the past decade ensured that food lovers keep coming for the delicious, traditional cuisine available here. In celebration of the return of American beef, The Sherwood Taipei has imported the best available A1 Premium Grade Beef to create a feast of American beef with original flavors, grilled to perfection and combined with other high-end ingredients, such as foie gras, liver, and mushrooms. Sicilian Head Chef Gaetano Palumbo has experience of cooking for Prince Charles, Pavarotti and other famous celebrities. He recommends the Traditional Venetian Carpaccio (NT$680) as an appetizer and the Grilled Prime Beef Tenderloin with Crispy Duck Foie Gras and Pink Peppercorn (200g, NT$1,500). The meat is tender and juicy and, when combined with the duck foie gras and pink peppercorn, one can taste the effort and techniques that the chef has put into preparing this dish.
