I would strongly recommend that if you want to eat here, that you eat on the 1st floor, not the 2nd floor. 2nd floor is more of a &#8216;rough and ready&#8217; style of eating, with the 1st floor seeming to offer fresher ingredients and less greasy dishes, overall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">The fried rice and the smoked chicken were great. The omelet was also surprisingly good. I wouldn&#8217;t recommend the soup, but that came as part of the set so we didn&#8217;t initially try to sub anything else out. Next time, I will sub it for a different soup, though.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Opening Times:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Tuesday &#8211; Sunday 10:00 &#8211; 22:00, Monday &#8211; closed<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Tel:\u00a0<\/strong>02 2939 5615<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u53f0\u5317\u5e02\u6587\u5c71\u5340\u6307\u5357\u8def\u4e09\u6bb538\u5df737\u865f\u4e4b1<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">1-37, Lane 37, ZhiNan Road, Section 3, Wenshan District, Taipei City<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3616.9241296330815!2d121.58957695057644!3d24.968695846981603!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x3468002fb0ff011f%3A0x7e35fec803d0c7f7!2z6Zi_576p5bir55qE5aSn6Iy25aO66Iy26aSQ5buz!5e0!3m2!1szh-TW!2stw!4v1665562844560!5m2!1szh-TW!2stw\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maokong &#8211; a beautiful mountainside area to spend some time on the weekend.
