VVG & VVG Table both have great brunches on the weekend. Service is very French on purpose. Which means the food comes out slow.
Carnegies has a brunch but it's definitely quantity (huge! servings) and price (very affordable)that they are going after. quality and service are only so-so.
You Should also try LA Cafe in the back of Warners... they serve really great breakfast =D
daddy alex: i've heard that about Carnegies! I will have to try it sometime
anonymous: really? what do you like?? :) i went to LA Cafe around the time they first opened (for dinner) and wasn't that impressed.
Carnegies - I only know that they're famous for over-aged expats hitting on local women. It's kind of like Wanchai in Hong Kong.
I thought Carnegies only open at night. I went for brunch yesterday, and it really surprised me. Egg Benedict is quite good with good price, but they don't have high chair for kids. It makes sense. Who would expect kids go clubbing!!
Try "Woolloomoolo"- I reckon it's like I'm having brunch in Melbourne (for atmosphere and taste). It's only open Fri, Sat, Sun, and is tucked away at 95 Fu Jin Street, last street to the right off Tun Hua North Road, before the airport.
Simple menu (eggs benedict, pancakes, etc.) and great coffee.
You really need to try the Diner (behind Culture University on Her Ping and Jien Guo). It's packed on Sundays for prime brunch hours and you usually have to wait at least 20 minutes. They opened up another storefront across the alley and the waitresses walk back and forth with covers over the plates of food. It's an eclectic crowd and it reminds me of local diners back home in Cali. That's probably why I like it the most. Their pastrami sandwich isn't too bad, either.
Grandma Nitti's is also another obvious place that people first hear about when they get to Taipei. Whether or not you think the food is good or so-so, it's a good selection of food, the staff is nice, AND there's a flea market outside every Sunday 4-10. I know this is a shameless plug, but I do volunteer work for an organization that helps stray animals (called Animals Taiwan) and this flea market is one of our major fund raisers. So, spend a late Sunday at Grandma Nitti's and come peruse our flea market; everything is really affordably priced!
virgomac: i still want to try carnegie's brunch...
dianne: yup!! i've been to the diner.. it's really good.. sorry, haven't updated all my category pictures/info yet.. but it's searchable under the labels.
Awww! It's evening here now in Los Angeles but I am drooling looking at these breakfast pictures! I had Mister Donuts in Taipei and we stood in line for 1 hour!
