A nine-course gourmet meal for $26 USD at 台南 帝一鐤無菜單私藏料理

I have repeatedly said that N-course gourmet dining needs not be expensive in Taiwan.  This entry shows an example.  I share here a blog entry by amy & anthony  detailing their experience at the restaurant.   The article includes pictures of all nine dishes, starting with what appears to be an appetizer 黃金泡菜 (golden pickled cabbage), followed by sashimi and ended with an assorted fruit plate. I could not resist posting the picture of the 4th, which is steamed fish. The cost of this 9-course meal was $800 TWD, or $26 USD. The celebrated legendary gourmet 魚夫 has a youTube video (2:23) showcasing a much higher-end and therefore more expensive meal at the same restaurant.
