R5 Bistro Introduction
The concept of a three-in-one establishment combining a restaurant, café, and art gallery comes from the founder of "R5 Bistro," Chong Hsiao-Tse. Having previously worked as a software engineer, he always held a dream of opening his own shop. After thorough assessment and consideration, he boldly decided to leave his job and start his own business, showcasing his culinary aesthetics through R5 Bistro to every customer who visits. During his student years, Chong Hsiao-Tse had a working holiday experience where he tasted a very pure American burger—without excessive sauces, just a burger with meat as the soul. "Although simple, it has a refreshing taste," he fondly recalls, "but after returning to Taiwan, I never experienced that feeling again." This motivation solidified his goal of establishing a new type of Western cuisine restaurant. Chong Hsiao-Tse proudly mentions that all the dishes at the restaurant use natural ingredients, adhering to a policy of not adding MSG or overly strong seasonings, making it not only healthy but primarily aimed at letting customers enjoy the pure flavor of food. With this culinary philosophy, he aims to recreate the simplicity he once experienced. "Additionally, the beverages and desserts are also of professional quality, such as our specialty coffee and freshly baked handmade desserts," Chong Hsiao-Tse adds. Beyond focusing on Western dishes, he also wants to ensure the quality of beverages and desserts. "I hope that customers who come here don't just think of it as a restaurant, but also as a café and dessert shop." This reflects his ambition, as he diligently strives for excellence in every detail, continually collaborating with like-minded individuals to accumulate his experience and expertise. It’s not only a restaurant but also reshapes people's perceptions—regularly hosting exhibitions that activate wall spaces, filling the small area with an artistic atmosphere while providing a platform for art lovers to交流. Do you love dishes made from pure ingredients? Are you a fan of specialty coffee? Do you enjoy cultural events? Then come to "R5 Bistro" and satisfy all your cravings in one visit!
