I came because I never really had Taiwanese food before and also I thought it would be good place to have a drink and chit chat with friends. We ordered 2 pots of Chinese herbal tea which was very good. I enjoyed that part a lot. The pots are not huge so it's per person. We ordered the popcorn chicken, fried squid balls and this veggie dish which were recommended by the waiter. They were good, but I wouldn't say that it was so amazing that I would have to come back for it. The service is good and very friendly. The place was clean and seating was comfortable. It's not a very big place.
Now for the ambience. Ummm...It did feel like a library when we walked it. I guess it was because 2/3rds of the people who were in there had their laptops up and were studying with their friends. I guess because it offered free wifi so people take advantage of it. It was just awkward for the fact that the entire cafe can hear every word we said. I felt the need to talk quietly because of this. Perhaps they could have turned up the music a bit to get some atmosphere going....just a suggestion. It just felt a little uncomfortable for us. I never understood why students go to restaurants and cafes to study in the first place but I guess everyone has their way of doing things.
