Mume

I celebrated Valentine’s Day at MUME in Taipei. Reservation was easy, and the team was very accommodating with my time change. I received a warm welcome on arrival and the ambience was very modern. Food presentation was excellent, with well-portioned dishes and clear explanations throughout the meal. Service was attentive and professional. I had the non-alcohol beverage pairing which matched well with all the dishes. I really enjoyed my experience and I would definitely dine at MUME again when I next visit Taipei.

It's hard to book a table for solo diner in a michelin star restaurant. But lucky, MUME offer an option for a solo diner like me. I'm having a great night with overall experience. I book the chef's table with the half glass wine pairing. My 1st favourite is the yilan's red prawn. I will say this food is like love at the 1st bite. LoL. But it is the best i can describe for my experience. The sourdough might not be the best, but i love the idea of pickled chilli butter! LOVE IT! It is well paired with the sourdough! Wine pairing especially very well paired with the yilan abalone and wagyu short rib. As for desserts, i'm amazed that chef even thinking of making burdock as a desserts. Something i never imagine, but it actually working well with chocolate and banana. But tbh, with a combination of chocolate and banana, there is no way it will be failed. Too bad the wine pairing doesn't include any dessert wine. But i think in taiwan it's not common to drink sweet wine with desserts. The staff are helpful, the sommelier especially giving me some good recommendation as well. I'm actually worried that it might be difficult to communicate with me as i don't understand any chinese. But all the staff are still very helpful and make sure i'm having a good time at MUME. Thank you so much for the experience. If i ever comeback to taipei, i will surely coming back to visit MUME.

I celebrated my birthday with a friend here and had a really great time! Service was excellent - no complaints. The staff were all super courteous and made sure the explained all the dishes clearly to us. Atmosphere-wise, the lighting was a little too dark for my lighting but otherwise very comfortable. Now let's get to the food-we got the 9 course meal with 2 additional amouse bouches (not in menu). Wonderful flavors all around and interesting use of local ingredients and inventive flavor combinations and textures. The sourdough bread + beer butter and fermented chili butter was my fave, I wish there was a way to just buy it on its own!! Duck was fantastic except I wish the skin were crispy lol. On to the main - the wagyu was just.. ok for lack of a better term. It was wagyu alright but it was a bit too plain for my liking (not the restaurant's fault, maybe I have a less than refined taste in beef). Overall though still a wonderful meal and I would go here again but I'm looking forward to trying a different tasting menu. Cheers to Mume!

Booked for a party of 7. They were very sticky about corkage charges. Food was well executed. Flavours blended well and presentation was masterful. Would recommend if you visit Taipei.

First visit to MUME Taipei. Reservation was easy, and the team was very accommodating with a last-minute change of date. Warm welcome on arrival and a refined, inviting ambience. The bar was particularly well presented, and the course was clearly introduced. Food presentation was excellent, with well-portioned dishes and clear explanations throughout the meal. Service was attentive and professional, and the wine recommendations were well paired. While the overall experience was polished, the flavors were average and none of the dishes stood out by the end of the course. Given the reputation, I was expecting more depth and memorability in taste. Overall a pleasant experience, but I’m unlikely to revisit.
