A very well stocked bar.
Only a few blocks away from Xinyi Anhe MRT, right next to Renai circle is the chic boutique hotel, Madison Taipei.
Right next to the lobby of the Madison Taipei, is it's bar/restaurant URBAN 331.
A large space with tons of seating. The couches were very comfortable and spacious with good distance between them so you can talk freely with your friends.
A tray of tea samples, which you can smell and decide which one you want.
We ordered the tea set for two people.
Beginning the set we were served these scones and shots of some kind of fruit juice.
Each set arrives in two wooden boxes. One box is full of savory items and the other of sweets.
The canapes in the savory box included : braised beef croissant , crab salad stuffed tomato, shrimp salad puff pastry, bacon cheese ball, anchovies custard and a a chilled muskmelon soup.
The braised beef was very tender and flavorful, but the croissant was a little to soft and soggy. The rest of the savory items were okay.
The sweet box included: mini raspberry eclair, cheesecake, mango dacquoise, hazelnut mille feuille,raspberry dark chocolate cake and a Madison signature chocolate ball. Similar to the savory box, nothing particularly was amazing but nothing was bad either.
We ordered two pots of Supreme Earl Gray to accompany our tea set.
URBAN 331 would be a place Id come back with friends for a drink or two , with its very comfortable and large room. But I think having their tea set once was enough for me. There are many other places with far better food for the same price. But if you're looking for a place that's relatively quiet and private to talk and eat a little, then this place would be an ideal spot!
