Taipei Chef

Don't let the minimalist decor fool you:Taipei Chef packs a punch. Located in an Artarmon side street,this Taiwanese restaurant pours attention into what matters:the food. Soft-shell crab,diced into small pieces and coated in salt and pepper,is a refreshing take on an Asian classic. Freshly made prawn dumplings have a beautiful sweetness and burst with flavour,while kong bao q eggs - eggs marinated and then fried,served with fresh shallots and chunks of ginger - is simply stunning. The secret might be out;this local gem fills quickly on weeknights and with BYO,it's a place you'll want to keep coming back to.
