Tasting Journey #151 - 築地野台壽司

築地野台壽司
台北市萬華區桂林路106號   
02.2302.6775


Came here for dinner with a colleague of mine.  I've heard of this place before, or must have googled it sometime, somewhere. The name sounds familiar, so it must be popular (weird logic, hehee, but it's true).


Located in an old district of Taipei, this place is small yet packed.  Although the owners are all Taiwanese, the dishes are quite authentic. 


Wooden interior deco, red paper laterns, sake bottles, and wooden table tops... all definitions of an izakaya.

 
Portions are not big, but the price is reasonable, and considered average for Japanese cuisine.  According to my colleague, the tactic for eating at places like this is to order a rice dish, complimented with side dishes.  Reason being that rice dishes are typically not expensive, yet filling.  The side dishes are tiny, and considered the pricey dishes.  Interesting analogy, and I guess it's true.  We ended up spending a bit over NTD$1,000 for the two of us.
