Tainan - A retro, old-school, European-style western restaurant: La Cupola Dome Western Restaurant

#100 Ways to Travel When it comes to the renovation of old hotels in Tainan, we have to mention #Tianxia Nanyu. This Tianxia Hotel, which opened in 1985, has transformed into a fashionable hotel that best embodies retro aesthetics and is very popular among young travelers. The #lacupola Dome Western Restaurant on the R Building is full of old-school elegance and is also the oldest Western restaurant in Tainan. As soon as you enter the restaurant, you can feel the luxurious and fashionable style that mixes Taiwanese and European styles, especially the wooden structure, arc-shaped and red velvet seats, which look like the VIP exclusive box seats on the stage of an opera house. The ordering style is semi-buffet. Once you order a main course, you can enjoy the buffet. There are about 30 dishes on the table, including appetizers, salads, soups, hot dishes, desserts, fruits, etc. It is a small and beautiful style. The main course is a standard steak: herbed chicken thighs with Mexican spicy sauce, oven-roasted short rib steak with creamy mustard sauce, oven-roasted Australian beef short ribs with lobster and red wine sauce, lamb shanks braised in tomato and red wine, and zucchini and fresh vegetables with pumpkin risotto. The names of the dishes are long and the food is pretty average, but the best thing is the ambience of the western restaurant. It is so old-school and elegant, coupled with the textured light, which recreates the European and fashionable feel that was popular in Taiwan's social circles in the 1980s. I suddenly felt like I had transformed into a celebrity.
