Everyone can feel inflation pushing prices up, but some restaurants keep their meals remarkably affordable, offering their customers a great value. One pasta place in Taipei offers its cheapest dish for just NT$55, while another buffet in Taoyuan is just NT$380 and includes dozens of high-quality dishes, from roast duck to fried crab.
Broccoli, onion, garlic, basil, and spices are added to a pan and cooked in broth.
The pasta is then cooked in the broth to absorb the flavor. This simple Italian pasta dish that would normally cost over NT$100 is only NT$55 here.
Mr. Chen
Restaurant owner
Most Italian dishes include a main ingredient and a pasta, and are sold for NT$100 or NT$200. My idea is that customers can pick the ingredients they like, so everyone can customize their dish and also decide the price, like at a lu wei stand.
The owner sells pasta during the day, and his brother takes over in the evening, selling late-night snacks. The two brothers split the cost of the store’s rent, saving on costs and offering affordable, tasty meals.
Meanwhile at a steakhouse in Taoyuan, the kitchen is busy frying fish and cooking shrimp while also searing steak.
This buffet offers dozens of dishes from Chinese-style stir-fries to Thai lemon fish and Cantonese duck, as well as desserts and drinks. The best part? It’s only NT$380.
Liang Chung-cheng
Steakhouse owner
We offer to-go meals that we sell at three different locations, so we’re more of a professional restaurant and to-go meal store. My main strategy is to deal in cash and directly with suppliers, buying in bulk to reduce costs.
This 30-year-old restaurant negotiates prices with suppliers and buys in bulk to reduce costs, providing customers with a great dining experience for a low price.
