From the rainy \"Sanping\" in Keelung to the sunny \"Kira Bistro\" in Anping, Tainan, the geographical migration itself is full of topics. Kira inherits the chef's creativity in sauce language and the stability of heat, giving people a taste of solid potential.
However, as a restaurant and tavern, we have experienced an embarrassing experience caused by the uncontrolled pace of the meal. The same dish for guests at different tables was arranged to be served together, which caused us to wait for a long time at the table. This is the kitchen's lack of control over the on-site meal period, and the rhythm is seriously incoherent, which destroys the connection between flavors and makes the deliciousness weakened by the long wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kira bistro menu introduction and dining experience<\/mark><\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Charcoal grilled kale, white anchovy, North African millet ($220)<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The vision is refreshing, but the seasoning is weak, the ingredients do not have the power to pull each other, the structure is loose, and the focus on taste is missing. It is a salad that has lost the original appearance of the ingredients.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Flower branch, loofah, Shaoxing hoisin sauce ($280)<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Flower branches and loofah are a common combination, but the emergence of Shaoxing hoisin sauce has brought a clever combination of oriental fermented wine flavor and concentrated marine umami flavor, which instantly raises the level of the whole dish. The \"liquid bubbles\" of finger lemon burst out in the mouth, and its refreshing citrus sourness completes the end of this rich aftertaste. Very surprising and recommended.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Sea shrimp, fireworks sauce, cat ears ($320)<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The two big shrimp are fresh, firm and elastic. It's just that the surface of the cat's ears is too thick and lacks a Q-bomb bite. Although the performance of the fireworks girl sauce is stable, it cannot pull up the overall energy. It's not bad, but the overall performance is ordinary, and it fails to leave a memory point.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Japanese eggplant, Chulal sausage, red miso ($250)<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This dish shows the chef's mature idea of localizing exotic ingredients. The eggplant is roasted to make it soft and moist and still retains its structure. The deep salty freshness of red miso, the smoky salty aroma of Chulal sausage, and the natural sweetness released by the round eggplant, the three strike a delicate balance in the richness. It is a comfortable work that makes people stop and feel it, with familiarity and freshness.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Smoked oysters, coked scallion sauce, rice stew ($580)<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The oysters are plump and huge, the smoky aroma is charming, the rice stew retains the heart of the rice, and the concentration and humidity are properly controlled. The slightly sweet and burnt flavor of coking scallion sauce, combined with the stable rice heart of the risotto, the overall performance is mature and stable, and it is the most complete staple food tonight.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

Charcoal grilled salmon, baby vegetables, garlic cream sauce ($680)<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The maturity of the salmon is controlled at eight points, the fat melts to the best condition, the outer layer is slightly crisp, and the inner layer is tender. The excellence of this garlic-flavored cream sauce lies in its thick but non-sticky texture, which perfectly absorbs the oily aroma of salmon. It is an excellent performance that can make people call for bread and wipe the sauce from the bottom of the plate without leaving a drop.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Personal feelings<\/mark><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Eating it as a whole, the advantages and disadvantages of Kira Bistro are very clear. The advantage is that the sauce seasoning ideas are creative and mature; the heat is stable, and the staple food performs well. But the disadvantages are also quite obvious. The rhythm of serving is out of control, which seriously affects the fluency and immersion of the dining experience. The serving size is too small, and it is about seven minutes full after eating, but the price is close to the price band of Taipei restaurants and taverns. Moreover, the wine list and menu are less selective, and it is slightly thin as a restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a shop where the chef's intentions and potential can be eaten, but if the pace is not improved soon and the wines and dishes are expanded, the high price risk will be much higher than the incentives for return visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
