Taipei Travel

My wife and I dined here last night, and we LOVED IT! Silks House is outstanding...we ingested the lobster tail, spicy fish soup, ants climbing a tree, suckling pig with the most delectable crispy skin in town, saw-tayd greens, and chongqing chicken. Everything was cooked close to perfection...full of flavor...beautiful to look at...and all served up in a serene setting by an expert staff. We washed the meal down with a decent bottle of sauvignon blanc. Nothing to complain about. If you can't get a reservation, then please note that we walked up at 8:55 p.m. without one, were seated toot-sweet, ordered up before the kitchen closes at 9, and we ate leisurely until we were finished at 10 or so. Definitely consider eating in this fine restaurant in the Regent Hotel...I bet you will love it just like we did. Hao-hao!

I come here with 2 other friends, we orders dinner set, which is amazing, judge by the price and their dining space, I'll give them 4 starts.

Located inside the Regent`s hotel, in the heart of downtown Taipei, the place is very elegant although you can eat there with no tie and no suit, as always in Taipei (dress code is always relaxed, which is nice - that doesn`t mean you can go there in jeans anyway). Food is good, service is very good, wine list is ok with good international wines (a few good Italian bottles although the list is somewhat short).

The restaurant craft each dish as a piece of art. Personally I like the chicken soup with tofu(carefully crafted as a flower). My second favorite is their sweet Bao.

My colleagues booked us a private dining room here for a business dinner. Wow, what a location. We had a set menu of some wonderful foods, a lot of them new to my western palette. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and although not all of the dishes were to my taste, that was probably me more than any fault with the quality of the cuisine. A wonderful experience.
