Gushan District, Kaohsiung City｜Le Bon Marche

What a pleasant surprise! Nestled in an early 20th century residential building housed this not-so-big but no-too-small restaurant. A simple menu in which styles of a few Southern European countries are presented with special local seafood ingredients and flavors mixed at the chef's delight. We ordered too many entrees and appetizers but advised by the friendly server not to over ordering. Apparently, our eyes were too big than our stomachs. After 4 of us had cleaned out every plate, we collectively gave a thumb up. We loved it. How much did we like it? None of us had dinner that day because we were still full by the evening, maybe we wanted to savor the tastes of those delightful dishes from our lunch. There are 3 entrees that needed advanced order. I suppose this is a proprietor's business strategy bringing customers back. Well, we sure will. Worthy of mentioning - tarter for dessert was good too, although I was looking for some exotic à la mode.

This is a creative home-style restaurant. The overall space has a Taiwanese nostalgic tone and a European country style. The elegant atmosphere is accompanied by exquisite meals and wines with basic tones. I like it very much! Please come and try it, you will not be disappointed. By the way, the chef is very handsome, the owner is very beautiful, and the attitude of every waiter is very good.

Fresh ingredients, snarling portion. The decor is very European and the food certainly compliments the ambience. Cozy and adorable. Best yet the chef is very friendly and personable. Be sure to ask him for the recommended dish of the day.
