    Unlike typical lunch counters or single-dish noodle shops, the kitchen provides an all-day Taiwanese menu spanning breakfast crullers and rice rolls to full dinner bentos.

    They also have a huge selection of options from breakfast to dinner.

Before you head over

Practical dining tips on timing, daily specials, and dining room service
