A restaurant in Taipei is distinguishing itself by using medicinal Chinese herbs to create yummy and healthy foods:
” What happens when three 20-something female fitness instructors decide to shift careers and enter the culinary business? The answer is a homelike barbecue restaurant that offers a wide variety of grilled delicacies spiced up with healthy sauces prescribed by practitioners of Chinese medicine.
Rarely adopted in other barbecue joints, Chinese herbs are key ingredients in the eatery’s savory sauces, dressings and beverages. The signature teriyaki marinade, for example, is made with various medicinal herbs that are added to the broth.
For those who like their food simple and palatable, the de-shelled shrimp plate (NT$90) comes highly recommended, not just for the competitive price, but also for the simple salt and pepper seasoning that brings out the freshness of the food. The juicy boneless beef sparerib (NT$150) is another favorite that is flavored with sesame oil and the specially concocted blend of Chinese herbs. “
