National billiards champion
Kemic has always wanted to provide a billiards
venue unlike any other, for players who truly
love the game. Keeping that in mind, he took
over a place which had been running for a
number of decades, and re-opened it, naming
it "Clean". Kemic's elaborate plan
for "Clean" can be seen as soon
as you walk in the door. The place is equipped
with Brunswick tables, which are familiar
to veteran billiards players. First-class
cues and spacious, luxurious-looking private
rooms, which can cater for up to 20 people,
are just two of Clean’s features. Unlike
many poorly-lit billiards halls you see in
Taiwan, Clean has sufficient lighting on the
second floor and six electronic air filtering
machines to ensure that the air circulates
and players can enjoy their games in a comfortable,
clean environment. If you happen to be one
of those people who just come to kill time
or tag along with friends, then you can kick
back at Clean's independent resting/reading
area, or the waiting and smoking room, where
you can thumb through newspapers, books and
magazines, as well as watch television and
use wireless Internet. You can help yourself
to the ground coffees (NT$20), or the carbonated
beverages sold in the vending machines. The
restrooms here are not only "clean"
but also have a lounge feel with hip-hop music
playing in the background, which shows Kemic's
personal style even more. Present your business
card to the staff and receive a special 10-percent
discount; foreign guests can also enjoy this
offer. --By Sean Chang, translated by Ann
