This place is perfect for a taste of Taiwanese home cooked food - dumpings, wanton, bamboo shoot soup, omelette...big menu. Dish size is small so you can try a few different dishes. Inexpense. Clean for this type of restaurant - they just renovated.

Shops
Great shop for organic products from olive oil to soaps. Products are imported from Australia or New Zealand. I love, love the Dindinatural products (especially the soaps). Also, I like using their cleaning products and dish detergent. No chemicals and great smell.... Support a small independent store and stay away from chemicals....Oh, and they have great Australian wine. Why not celebrate everyday with a glass of fine wine.
