About the degustation dinner
Join us for a journey that brings the vibrant sounds and flavors of Taiwan to the heart of Prague. An exclusive tasting menu features 7 Taiwanese dishes in tapas form, showcasing a rich spectrum of Taiwanese cuisine and special seasoning—— from Indigenous Amis 阿美族菜, Minnan 臺式閩南菜, Hakka 臺式客家菜, and JuanCun 眷村菜 traditions to modern East-meets-West fusion. Crafted by award-winning chefs Chang Keh-Chin 張克勤 and Lu Kai-Yuan 路凱源, each dish offers a distinctive interpretation of Taiwan’s iconic flavors.
Hosted in the charming Šodó Bistro, each course highlights the depth and diversity of Taiwanese cuisine, blending authenticity with innovative flair. As you dine, you'll be immersed in the chefs' personal stories and the cultural inspirations that breathe life into every bite.
This event is not only a rare opportunity to indulge your palate in Taiwanese cuisine but also a unique chance to explore Taiwan's traditional music through your auditory sense. Taiwanese Hakka BaYin and BeiKuan 客家八音與北管音樂 artist Chung Chi-Yi 鍾繼儀 has been invited to deliver a live performance, featuring popular Taiwanese folk songs 臺灣民謠 and BeiKuan melody 北管曲子 during 1960s Taiwan.
Whether you're a seasoned gourmet enthusiast, a curious foodie explorer, or a music lover, an adventure awaits you within the cozy elegance of Prague's most beautiful homey kitchen.
