Datong District, Taipei City｜RéeL French bistro meal

2018.04.16=Alas, a gourmet restaurant hidden in the alleys of Yonghe, with a bunch of novel dishes, powerful sauces, and a slightly cheaper price compared to Taipei, combined with the quality of the food, I want to visit again after eating, wow Hahaha! At the beginning, the bread was served, well, it was not the point, and there was nothing to be picky about the reception, 4 points. "Chicken liver pate, crispy toast", in fact, I just ate a loaf of bread and frowned when I saw the toast again. But a knock on the chicken liver pate, phew! Hard, novelty. Extravagantly spread a large lump on the toast, the sweet and sour taste of lemon, very moderately suppressed the slightly bitter smell of chicken liver, leaving only the rich taste. It really makes people take one bite after another, and it’s hard to stop. When I hit the sweet spot, I used pink pepper to tell the horse, oh, it turned out that it was not lemon but pheasant pepper, high pole, 8 points. "Charcoal-grilled beef heart", the thinly sliced ​​beef heart is directly charcoal-grilled, the firepower is well controlled, and the center of the beef heart is slightly red; The sour bean mayonnaise on the side can effectively enhance the meat taste, delicious, 6 points. "Fresh fish with lemon juice", freshly cut white hamachi, served with a sauce made of lemon juice and some lettuce (I forgot how to make it after drinking too much), it feels like Japanese food, but it has a lot of spiciness. Is it Peruvian again? XDD Personally, I think it’s all wrong for a single dish, but the spiciness a bit hinders the tasting of other food and wine, 6.5 points. "Peruvian Chicken with Garlic Cheese", this dish, um, the cookedness of the grilled chicken is quite good, and it is not bad with some recently rammed wheat and half-cooked eggs. But the usual chicken dish feels boring to me, but this time, with that yellow cheese sauce, oh, oh, it makes up for the emptiness of chicken that lacks fat, ask the boss what is this, "secret "XDD Hahaha, to put it simply, there are some secret recipes on the yellow pepper cheese flavor, quite satisfied, 8 points. "Lyon offal sausage", when I see the menu, I always like to order a little bit of hunting. The pig offal is crushed and enema, and then served with sesame leaves. Eating offal sausages alone...Well, to be honest, the fishy smell is too strong, but with the sauce, oh, the whole taste is fused together, but the taste in the whole mouth is only sticky and thick, which is not bad. The offal sausage alone is about 4 points, but it is 7 points with the sauce, which is really magic. "Fire-roasted tender shoulder beef, Dauphin potato, pickled tomato", the current meal is not bad, add some steak to finish. Potatoes are served with cheese, full of aroma. The mastery of tender shoulder beef... is much better than the godfather steak, and I am quite satisfied with the limited meat quality. The sweet and sour taste of the pickled tomatoes can bring out the sweetness of the beef itself, but it is a pity that only two are too few, XD 7 points. "Spicy chocolate cake", the chocolate cake is quite dense, and the spicy powder is sprinkled on the cake, um, it's okay. On the contrary, the oranges on the top have been burnt, the taste is crispy and then the orange juice is sprayed out, and then there is an abrupt burst of spices, wrong step, 6 points. This Japanese red wine brought back by Kai smells different from ordinary European red wine. It shows a lightness without the stimulation of alcohol. Women should love it very much. After one meal, I ate too many potatoes... Would like to visit again.

Incredible restaurant. Excellent cuisine crafted with amazing ingredients and impressive skills. It’s not as expensive as other bougie French restaurant in Taipei city, yet it has perhaps more refined, delicate taste and better portion. The environment is also well organized: clean, cozy, stylish and calm. Worth going for special occasions.

Well the pictures can’t do justice, you just gotta pay a visit.
