Yilan Wood-fired French Cuisine - Is Ye Fu Chui Yan a gourmet restaurant or a Yuanshan attraction?

Years ago, Ye Fu Chui Yan was a Chinese banquet-style restaurant without a set menu. Now, the restaurant has hired a French chef and transformed into a French cuisine restaurant, using kiln and fire roasting techniques to create a unique dining experience. The dining environment used to feel rustic, but after a complete renovation, it has become a refined French restaurant. The restaurant's website emphasizes 'welcoming foodies in hiking shoes,' suggesting it might also be a great spot for a day trip. Of course, I have to plan a visit! Ye Fu Chui Yan's menu is simple and clear, with three pricing options (1880 TWD, 2480 TWD, 2880 TWD). Each set includes an appetizer, main course, and dessert. Notably, Chef Ji Yong's 'French Onion Soup' won the 3rd 500 Plates Award! The restaurant's decor features a wooden theme, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering unobstructed views of the mountains and lake. The restaurant has a large open space with a pond and a leisure area; you can arrange a walk along the mountain trails. I think this is the unique charm of Ye Fu Chui Yan, only found in the mountains! Rather than just dining, it's more about enjoying the scenery, making it a perfect spot for a leisurely day trip! 📍Address: No. 21-8, Shuangpi Road, Yuanshan Township, Yilan County, 264 💰Average spending: Over $2,000 per person
