Yi-Yuan Chinese Restaurant at The Sherwood Taipei is one of the oldest Chinese restaurants in a city hotel. Celebrities, local business leaders, and even everyday folk enjoy Yi-Yuan's cuisine as much as they appreciate the ambiance there, which often is full of people celebrating one milestone or another. This fall Yi-Yuan is presenting set meals that have won the hearts of well-known visitors to the restaurant: former U.S. President George H.W. Bush, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and Malaysian Tan Sri Dato' Seri Yeoh Tiong Lay. --Written and translated by Diva
