The Kitchen Table

The Kitchen Table serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and brunch. The a la carte menu offers everything from Caesar salad to pizza, to Thai-style seafood toss and Taipei-style braised beef noodle. It has a great mix of Asian and Western food. The atmosphere can be described as both casual and sophisticated.

Dining

The regional cuisine is a mix of Chinese, Japanese, and aboriginal Hakka styles. It is also influenced by its island geography and the scarcity of arable land. Fish and poultry, therefore, play a major role in local cooking. However, the base of all dishes is made up of seasoning varieties particular to Asian cooking, such as soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame oil, supplemented with black beans, peanuts, chilli peppers, and a local variety of basil.
