MICHELIN Guide Taipei 2019 Selection

"Making its debut in the guide with two stars, this 12-seat Japanese restaurant in Da’an District centers on a solid cypress counter and offers an omakase that includes 12 pieces of nigiri using seasonal fish mostly from Kyushu, with rice cooked in natural spring water from Nagano. Chef Shogo Amamoto, who has lived in Taiwan for more than 12 years and is the brother of Masamichi Amamoto of Tokyo’s two-starred Higashiazabu Amamoto, presides over the experience, and demand is so intense that food lovers wait months—sometimes up to half a year—for a seat." - Hsieh Ming Ling
