Let’s stray from wedding talk for a minute and focus on one of our other loves in life, food.

As well as showcasing what Taipei has to offer, there is also another good reason for highlighting this particular restaurant as it’s where we had our engagement celebration in February with the wider Hsu family and also the venue we always get taken to whenever we are in town.

Mitsui is a personalised type of kaiseki Japanese restaurant as the dishes you get are the very best dishes they create on the day based on the food imported from Japan earlier in the day/the night before. This doesn’t mean you only get set meals or everyone in the restaurant gets the same food, but rather, they recommend based on what you like, eg if you want tempura, what’s available on the day, or if you want sashimi, what the freshest fishes are and so forth. The menu and the service is customised to suit your preference.

We recommend those thinking of paying Mitsui a visit the lunch menu for NT$1,000 (approximately AUD$45) per person, which gives you around 5 dishes + dessert. Dinner is double the cost.

Highly recommended for those attending our Taipei reception.

There are several Mitsui but we recommend the original Mitsu on Nong-an Street:
