3 Michelin-recommended Banquet Restaurants In Taipei

"Helmed by veteran chef Dong—who cut his teeth at Taipei’s most distinguished restaurants during the golden era—this restaurant (MICHELIN Plate, MICHELIN Guide Taipei 2018) presents intricate banquet dishes with craft and nostalgia. A standout is the rarely seen fried shrimp cake: more than three hundred catties of lard from black pigs are shaped, sliced into 0.1cm sheets, then bisected to half that thickness to form paper-thin fat wrappers that envelope shrimp and water chestnut before being deep-fried into golden medallions. “Crystal chandeliers and sumptuous stone trimmings contrast starkly with the rustic faux-bamboo chairs in this bright dining room with its high ceiling and full-length windows. With over forty years of experience, chef Dong aims to impart finesse to Taiwanese cuisine while breaking some rules. Re-invented classics include three-cup chicken and braised fish skin with bok choy. Innovative dishes such as egg omelette eel roll also impress.”" - MICHELIN Guide Taipei Editorial Team
