As a resource, F.com is massively useful to the casual browser but if anyone were to us this thread as a resource for “Good Retaurants” then they would have to wade through a veritable cesspool of North American crap about what they miss at home and the lowest common food denominators; as if the consumption of a particular doughnut (donut - to dumb it down) was the be all and end all of existence in Taiwan. Bollocks!
This forum should exist to further the exploration of decent restaurants and outlets that serve food way above, and beyond, the usual American crap that the average browser (who is most likely to be a Yank) may care to see/dine at/consider.
This forum would be best served if all the fast food, burger stuff etc. be separated into another thread otherwise, the average visitor to Taiwan may think that this country is just an extension of America, which, is, having driven about 4,500 miles across it, about as culinarily adept as my little finger.
So, enough of the fast food/donut/ice-cream/hot dog/burger stuff in the restaurant forum and let this thread in Forumosa.com be a useful guide for visitors and not a mouthpiece for cheap students to hail their fave cheap grub as if it were the be all and end all of food on this planet.
There used to be really good reviews of “restaurants” in this thread but it seems as if no one has any money to go to them any more and the whole thing has become one big cheap student/teacher forum dominated by bloody Yanks and their desires for their cheap “back home” edible glop.
Up the standards Sandman and get rid of the dross!
