the setting is very nice and tranquil in a small hut in the middle of the rice fields above Changbin. The place is by reservation only, there is no menu - you eat what you get. There are only 3 table sitting a maximum of 8 guests. We ate a 10-course menu of small dishes, each one lovingly made and prepared by the chef in the small kitchen. The athmosphere is very relaxed, the chef and his fiance (who acts as server/cook) are very young and extremely friendly -an unforgettable experience.
This place is a HIDDEN GEM! The location is superb (definition of “superb”: nicely tucked inside the rice terrace and overlooking the Pacific. However, might be tricky to get to after dark). More over, the food is phenomenal and creative. The ingredients are super fresh and mostly sourced from local farms and fishing villages.
The owner couple are lovely people that simply want to share their creations with others. They’ll introduce the story behind every dish - how it is made and where the ingredients are sourced.
Don’t expect an upscale Omakase place. Instead, it feels like having a laid-back dinner in a friend’s house, which is exactly what we wanted.
I’d recommend getting a bed and breakfast in this village and walking over to 夜月 for dinner. After traveling around the world, this tiny village in Eastern Taiwan never fails to surprise me.
Logistics: It’s reservation only. Please reserve at least one day in advance. By the time I visited, it was $1000 NTD per person (tips and tax incl.).
This is an amazing journey in Taitung. Warm and inviting environment with perfect food plus 100% beautiful wine....You will want to take second run after the first run.
Upscale French cuisine with Japanese fusion. Served from a small homestyle restaurant along the coastline of Taiwan.
Chewy is the chef — formerly a Taipei musician. Sophie is his wife and assists with preparation and service.
The menu is set, so be sure to request and dietary issues well in advance.
If you can get in to this 8-seater it’s well worth it.
Happy the cat is cute.
