FRASSI
Taipei CityZhongshan DistrictItalian restaurant
The menu delivers complex yet balanced flavors, with wine pairings and service standing out.
Signature Dishes
Red sea bream
The fish skin is crisp and the flesh is just right; it is steamed then roasted, and its natural flavor comes through even without sauce.
Pici
The noodles are close to udon in thickness, with cockles and house-made bottarga working well together in a seafood sauce.
Aged venison
The venison fillet is fragrant and tender, with an aged-duck-breast-like texture; the unadorned version works well, though it may retain a slight gamey note, and the truffle does not necessarily add much.
Olive oil gelato
Olive oil gelato is paired with tobacco and coffee notes, sweet with a distinctive spicy finish.
