Since the opening of their first branch in TianMu back in 1988, Diamond Tony's has been serving mainly Italian cuisine to its patrons. Moving into the 85th floor of the Taipei 101, it has employed the old kitchen crew, but also hired chefs who are specifically trained in Japanese cooking. They call themselves a fusion cuisine restaurant, combining ingredients and culinary techniques from the East and West, and presenting a new, trendy spot for all food lovers. So come appreciate a panoramic view of Taipei city while enjoying their newly designed fusion delicacies. The designer uses black crystal glass to create a reflex effect inside the restaurant, so that no matter where you are sitting, you can still see an uninterrupted view outside. --By RebeKah Godfrey, translated by Ann Lee

A. A gondola boat is placed at the center of the bar to showcase Diamond Tony's top quality seafood selections-sashimi, French-style oysters, Taiwan deep-water fish and fresh produce imported from Japan. You name it, and chefs cook it right in front of you, and it is all made-to-order. This open bar setting can serve up to 60 customers at a time.

B. Any time throughout the day, you can have five set meals to choose from. Those include the Stylish Set Menu, Business Set Menu and First Class Set Menu. Items on the menu are mostly Western-style and prices range from NT$1,380 to NT$3,280. You can choose items like a combination plate, cold appetizers, steamed fish, and as many as seven main course items. Around the 18th of every month, they change the dishes offered to create more surprises for the patrons.
