Taiwanese Food @ The Gardens

Supposed to post this up last 2 weeks, but has been busy with other stuffs. Hence it has been dragged till now.

4 of us went to MV for a meet up on one Saturday's morning. We decided to try out this newly opening Taiwanese restaurant in The Garden. After browsing through their menu, we found out that their menu selections are not as many as we thought, and there are quite a number among the menu is beef selections which are not to our favorite .

Anyhow, 4 of us managed to order different sets like 3-cup chicken, Cheesy Pork Chop, Fried Chicken Chop and Fried Pork Chop as well as some snacks such as Fried Taiwanese Style Tempura, Fried Salty Chicken and Taiwanese Popiah. The beverages over there are quite pricey as well. We ordered 2 pot of hot tea for 4 of us to share, I think 1 pot cost about RM 10 if I didn't remember wrongly.

The food comes in a nice deco & layout, taste wise as well except for the Popiah. I'll prefer our Malaysian style one, more tasty and it's not so dry like the Taiwanese one we had. Each set comes with a bowl of white rice with some minced pork, a small pot of soup and 3 side dishes. The side dishes are different for each set, the portions are a bit small but very tasty.

As for the Taiwanese Style Fried Tempura, it tasted similar like Fried Fishcake, but the texture is not as "Q" (chewy) as the usual fishcake that we have. The Fried Salty Chicken didn't taste like what we expected, I think the one I had before in "Little Taiwan" restaurant is much more better.

Beside that, the waiters over there are quite attentive too. They'll come and check whether do you need tea refill on and off. It's quite nice to have a long chatting with a cup of hot tea!
