What We Ate In Taiwan, Part 6 - Upscale and Buffet at the Royal Chihpen

Once again, Supera/Signet Tours (www.superatours.com) did a remarkable job of finding excellent Chinese food in out of the way locales in Taiwan.  The Royal Chihpen Hotel in Beinan is located in a rural town of about 15,000 people, though the area is heavily populated by tourists seeking hot springs and scenic areas.  Even so, it was surprising to find something as upscale as the restaurants in the Royal Chihpen Hotel.

In the La Han Teppanyaki restaurant we had our only non-Taiwanese meal and not only was the food good, but surprisingly I was just as impressed by the plating of the food.  First came the appetizer of salmon, a seafood roll, and candied tomatoes.

  
Pumpkin foam soup as delicious as it looks.



Grilled scallop, squid and vegetable.  Too bad there was just a little of each.


Finally steak cubes with more vegetables.




We were still a little hungry in the end but with food like this so visually and culinarily well prepared, you can't complain too much.  

Meanwhile, in the Naruwan Restaurant, how often do you see foie gras in a breakfast buffet?


For some reason, this sausage roll seemed to be untouched during the period that I ate at the buffet.


A very common dish in Central Taiwan was stir fried gluten.




Given our locale in rural Taiwan I certainly had no complaints about the food here and props to Supera/Signet Tours for identifying this location.
