Da’an District, Taipei City｜樂埔町 Leputing （裝修期暫無營業，年中重新開幕）

There is a fixed dinner set with a choice of 3 main meals. There was only the beef and duck options available for us that day. I chose the duck for my main meal. Though the dishes may look small in size, it was very appealing and appetising! The food was warm to the palate. The waiters were quick to clear our used dishes. We have a very good dining experience, even till the minute that the restaurant was closing. :)

We were at Leputing for lunch on Christmas eve. This is a beautiful restaurant that has been converted from a Japanese dormitory, while retaining many Japanese elements such as the garden. Leputing's seven-course meal is incredibly delicious. Each dish from the start to the end is arranged thoughtfully delighting our palates. What I appreciate most about their dishes is that the restaurant retains the original texture and flavour of the ingredients they use, and is served as a perfect dish. Service was extraordinary with the servers always ensuring our needs are catered for such as my partner's dietary restriction. We were here to celebrate my birthday and the server surprised me with a birthday cake. In summary, it was an enjoyable lunch experience at a beautiful restaurant that serves delicious food complemented by professional service. Five stars!

Overall it was a great experience from start to finish. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Our server's attention to detail was excellent when he picked up from our conversation that it was one of our birthdays. But the food was definitely the star. All the food items were carefully crafted with a lot of thought. The chef used a lot of unique food items to accompany each main item. Would highly recommend a visit!
