We ate at Canton court, a Michelin rated restaurant known for its local delicacies. Taiwanese food is similar to Chinese food but seems lighter on the saltiness and sweetness giving it a very pleasant taste.

Café Un Deux Trois

The yummy breakfast at the hotel. Asian buffets are the best given the breadth of both western and local foods.

The cafe is open from 6:30am to 10:30am.
