Penglai Tai Cai - Taipei

Traditional Taiwan style local restaurant, you can taste the food marriage with liquor, like beer 、sake or plum wine

Very hearty casual Taiwanese cuisine. The staff were super friendly.

Traditional Taiwanese cuisine. Worthy to come here sometimes.

Food quality is average local style, even for their recommended fried ribs chicken dish. Clean environment. Service quality is mixed... front desk is cold when we arrived at 8pm, telling us curtly that the kitchen was closing soon for cleaning, so cannot add order. Service at table was better, with staff offering to change plates mid course.

Hearty Taiwanese food look out for the 3 images on the wall for their 3 signature dishes toufu, pork rib and yam. I would recommend to try them alln, their toufu and pork rib are interesting renditions. I also ordered a fried rice, mushrooms, gourd and miso soup, which all turned out satisfactory. They had 2 seatings when I visited for lunch , which means one has only 1.5h to eat. They serve pretty quickly, so it all went well.
