Le Chat Noir Introduction
Art is the most charming ingredient. Stepping into this 60-year-old house, you won’t feel the weight of time but rather a beautiful fusion of Chiayi and French art. The old space is adorned with antiques brought back from France and oil paintings hand-painted by the artist owner. The restaurant regularly hosts cultural events, inviting Taiwanese artists to perform here, offering handmade dessert classes, art exhibitions, and wine tastings, allowing this space to be filled with delicate and vibrant artistic souls. In addition to bringing back a French ambiance, it also brings authentic hometown flavors - French crepes, with a soft texture that was originally a dessert only found in a few five-star hotels in northern Taiwan, have become a daily delight in Chiayi. Served with handmade fruit preserves made from carefully selected fresh Taiwanese fruits, Alishan longan flower honey, orange liqueur, and other local ingredients, it blends Chinese and French flavors, complemented with a French estate's rosé sparkling wine, stirring your taste buds and inviting you to discover the most charming flavors of life here. French artist Toph operates Le Chat Noir with a variety of art exhibitions, cultural activities, French cuisine, and wine, facilitating cultural exchanges between Taiwan and France. Address: No. 518, Linsen East Road, Chiayi City, (05) 2775502, 0932125244. Recommended dishes: French crepes, French estate rosé sparkling wine, banana custard tart.
