This Japanese-style hot pot, which has a sister location in Taipei, attracts many regulars. The wooden, outdoor seating lets customers enjoy a cool breeze while waiting for meals or enjoying a refreshing beverage. Open until the wee hours of the morning, Orange also caters to those who work late. The seafood at Orange is carefully chosen and fresh. Well-known varieties include Emperor Crab, Qiu-Ye Crab, Large Scallops, Taiwan's own Red-banded Mantis Shrimp and U.S Prime Beef: All have quality ingredients customers can choose from. With nice broth selections and specially imported, handmade copper pots, Orange keeps patrons coming back to their authentic food. --Words and photos by Eden Lin, translated by Ann Lee
