Beinan Township, Taitung County｜龍泉鄉茶藝館

Such a lovely place. Its situated up to hill, we have walked there and felt quite exhausted but the restaurant was definitely worth the tour :) very nice staff, beautiful surrounding with view to forest, great food - we have ordered their special menu and it was definitely more just food, it was more of a experience.

Nice ambiance n the owner very nice to explain the type of essentials oils n soap purposes. Yea leaves also very nice

I think eating their homemade handmade local food is really an interesting experience to do if you are in Taitung! Price is 300 per person for eating and if you also want a foot bath you should spend additional 300 twd. They also sell some tea, wooden objects, soaps, their olives etc although a little bit expensive (as normal for a good restaurant as it is!). As first, I should say that as other people said we booked to make sure they were open and that we could eat some food. Although I have some allergies, they have been so nice and understanding with me and us!!! They are really kind! And they told us to come at 17:40 instead of 18:00 as the road would get dark without lights so for safety it would be better to arrive before it would be too dark. Then, we were traveling around near the Riverside Park, Bayu falls and we saw also the Qingjue temple which is the nearest thing to see near the restaurant. To reach this restaurant from the temple although it was near it was a little bit steep so since we were riding a scooter we had to pay attention to how we rode it. When we arrived they were really nice and they asked us to wash our hands first and then they prepared for us a tea with the High Mountain Chrisantemum grown by them. It was really delicious and it tasted very similar to chamomile! Then they gave us to eat several dishes: the usual white rice bowls, two dishes of green vegetables, one braised tofu, another homemade dish which felt like vegan meat made from soy (although they don't say it is vegan meat but it tastes delicious and like vegan meat), a soup with tofu skin and mushrooms! The most delicious dishes were the braised tofu and the other dish made with soy. The food all tasted authentic, special and delicious! They also made us try some of their plums, olives and the fermented olives and honey small drink! The owner was really nice and talked with us about the food and also about the Falun Dafa as they support it and gave us many interesting information. However she mostly speaks Chinese so best to come here if you are traveling with a Taiwanese friend/boyfriend/girlfriend etc or with someone who speaks Chinese. It should also be said that they don't have a menu so they will prepare the food also based on what you can/can't eat (for example for allergies). It is really an experience to try if you are in Taitung and in Zhiben! Really authentic food and nice owner! Suggested 100%!!! Just pay attention when driving car/riding scooter and give them a call at least a few hours in advance to book a table! Thank you for the experience!
