Vegetarian Dining---Thai Cafe

停業 Closed

---By Claire Tyrell Translated by Tre Gordon

Located in a lane behind the headiness of ZhongXiao East Road, this place is perfectly situated for much-needed time-out. The simplicity and calming music of this small restaurant makes it welcoming for a relaxing solo meal, or dining with friends. Although billed as Thai-style, this is a subtle influence more than the real deal, tempered to the local palette. But it is certainly a great little place to check out. The rice main course set includes a light soup, refreshing salad and dessert, and the vegetable curry is recommended (NT$168). It was a good selection of vegetables in a fresh-tasting curry sauce, complemented by a perfectly-spiced helping of tofu. All meals are thoughtfully presented and other options include Salt and Pepper Chicken (NT$180), Pineapple Seafood Bowl (NT$180) and a simple selection of noodles, including the succulent Stirred Noodles with Papaya (NT$150). Hot pots are also featured (NT$260-320), as is a selection of coffees and fruit juices.
