Arjan T.Arjan Timmermans: Western style brunch and lunch spot with a menu mostly inspired by Italian cuisine. A quick walk from Taipei 101. They brew a mean cup of java too!

GraceGrace: The food portion shrunk after their renovation, also cut the fresh fruit comes with breakfast. A bit disappointed.
