For Taiwanese people expecting a 'food paradise,' this place just feels like a typical department store basement food floor.

Omura Butcher Shop
Mishima Korokke are a local treat made 100% with May Queen potatoes from Hakone-seiroku. The potatoes are especially rich in creamy, made into a sweet, fluffy delicious bite that even restaurant chef’s love.
The heart-shaped Mishima croquettes are delicious, whether they’re filled with onion, beef, or other ingredients. If you get the chance, you should definitely try them.

All-you-can-eat Sweets Bar A-55
"Let's have an after-school party at a secret base! is the concept behind this unique bar. When you enter the bar, you will hear J-POP and anime hit songs from the 1990s to 2000s. A blackboard covered with graffiti is hung on the wall, giving the impression of a corner of a classroom. The area is filled with toys, character goods and manga that you may have read when you were a kid, making you feel instantly nostalgic.
The interior is super retro, and there are tons of snacks. Every corner is filled with childhood memories—so nostalgic!

Hakata Motsunabe Yamaya Toyosu
A specialty spot for “motsunabe”, the famed hot pot from Hakata in Kyushu. Restaurant is run by Yamaya, an acclaimed Karashi Mentaiko maker.
Even though you can eat as much mentaiko as you want, it’s a bit salty so I couldn’t eat too much. Still, the presentation was really nice and everything tasted good.
