Zum Fass German House

Chi Tiao Tung,one of Taipei’s most famous bustling night life streets, is home to authentic Japanese, Korean and Taiwanese cuisine. Surprisingly, it’s also where you can find the oldest German restaurant in Taiwan. For more than 30 years, Zum Fass has been at the same location, the basement of an ordinary apartment building at the corner of a small alley, with only a logo, a blackboard and an arrow sign reading “restaurant” to indicate its presence. Zum Fass’ low-profile has not prevented its reputation from spreading by word of mouth. It is so popular, in fact, that tables there are booked solid almost every evening. The major attraction of Zum Fass is its traditional German and Swiss cuisine, which is among the most authentic you can find in Taipei. As its name shows, Zum Fass The Keg was first started as a beer hose by a group of Swiss Businessmen. Handpicked German wines and their wives' homemade dishes made it a cozy place to relax after work. Business boomed, so they hired the late Swiss chef Anton Grueniger, who was responsible for most of the dishes on the menu. Although most dishes now use less salt and are not so rich, so as to adjust to local tastes, Jack Hsu and Mary Chen, this Taipei restaurant’s present proprietors, insist on handpicking ingredients from Germany and making the dishes by the book. German pop and folk music complement the warm atmosphere created by the homey wooden tables and chairs. Pictures of the German countryside and traditional handicrafts adorn the walls. Chen is a diligent student of European cuisine and for the last decade has been overseeing the kitchen, paying attention to details such as making sure that the right type of cheese is used in certain dishes. Hsu is in charge of the bar.提供了超過四分之一世紀以傳統南德家鄉菜及瑞士菜為主，維持正統德式料理的香宜，有了更舒適的環境，更寬敞的 空間，更增加了每日更換菜色的超值美味午間套餐！當年設計的菜色歷久不衰;黑啤酒烘烤的脆皮豬腳、 進口純德式香腸、讓人唸唸不忘的德國啤酒，讓老朋友吃得滿意，新朋友吃得開心！香宜有了新家，更能使喜愛正統德國料理的您享受更多的美味！請您隨時到活動 報導看看，香宜為您準備的各式活動。品嚐道地德國料理，只有在香宜！
