（英文版看下面/ Scroll down for English)

久違的東方文華Cafe Un Deux Trois ，一直以來是殘編在台北最愛的法國餐廳。很遺憾的，前兩天去造訪時，餐廳已改成buffet吃到飽自助式的無國界料理。東方文華一直都是殘編心中的第一名的飯店，僅管改變模式，就是有辦法做得比別人好。

Mandarin Oriental Hotel Taipei’s Cafe Un Deux Trois has always been my favorite French restaurant in Taipei. Unfortunately, when we visited a few days ago, the restaurant has changed to an All-you-can-eat buffet-style restaurant serving international cuisine. Mandarin Oriental has always been my favorite luxury hotel and for a reason. They really upped their buffet game.

東方文華超奢華的海鮮自助區/ Luxury Seafood Buffet

• 餐廳最受矚目的就是「痛風」（海鮮）區了，東方文華的海鮮自助區有肥滿的九孔鮑、鱈場蟹、岩螺、熟白蝦、麵包蟹、淡菜、甚至還有小龍蝦。這裡有各式各樣的醬料，包括蕃茄海鮮醬、芥末、檸檬等等，饕客可以依自己的口味喜好添加。

熱食異國料理區/ Exotic Hot Food Area

• 生菜沙拉＆現煎區/ Salad & Cooked On-site

生菜沙拉區的醬也是形形色色，居然還有超級健康食材藜麥和超奢華的松露醬！（不加怎麼對得起自己）牛排區有現切的爐烤安格斯肋眼，廚師出手大方，切超大塊重量級的五分熟牛排給我們。

煎烤區有開放式的廚房及待命的廚師為客人現煎豬里肌雞腿、雕魚等優質魚肉品。

The grilling area is an open kitchen with a few chefs on duty to serve pork loin, chicken thigh, snapper, and other quality ingredients cooked-to-order

• 加點菜單/Aditional Items on the Menu：

東方文華將五星級飯店自助餐給升級了，除了琳瑯滿目吃不完的自助吧餐點，桌上還附一張小菜單，菜單含三種主廚現做的主菜，兩種甜點和咖啡或茶。用餐的客人可以無限加點：

Mandarin Oriental definitely raised the bar for luxury hotel buffets, in addition to the dazzling buffet stations, the dining tables also come with a small menu with three chefs’ main dishes, two desserts, and coffee or tea, which are also included in the dinner fare and can be ordered unlimitedly.

• 北海道干貝墨魚燉飯/ Scallop and Squid Ink Risotto

• 慢燉澳洲和牛小排/ Braised Australian Wagyu Beef Short Rib

慢燉澳洲和牛小排

澳洲和牛入口即化，甚至不用刀子，叉子就可以把牛肉切斷

（English/ 英文版）:

Australian wagyu beef is melt-in-your-mouth tender and can be eaten without a knife, the fork alone does the job.

• 佛跳牆/ Buddha Jump Over The Wall

佛跳牆
(Buddha Jump Over The Wall)

東方文華的佛跳牆是港式料理，所以沒有芋頭、鵪鶉蛋等材料，只有簡單的豬腱、豬皮跟海螺，跟台式佛跳牆比，較為清淡。

（English/ 英文版）:

This famous Chinese soup dish is considered luxury and served on special occasions like Chinese New Years. Mandarin Oriental‘s Buddha jump over the wall is a Hong Kong-style, which means there is no shark fins or quail eggs, etc., but simply pork, pigskins, and conch, compared to the Taiwanese Buddha jump over the wall, Café Un Deux Trois’ soup is relatively light.

文華ＣＡＦＥ甜點：

我們當晚的晚餐秀是世界聞名的甜點火焰阿拉斯加，除此之外還有一整桌的店家甜點自助吧，所以菜單上的「香草布蕾」和「烏龍茶奶凍」我們就沒點。
甜點出眾的包括濃醇的芝麻布丁、杯裝的提拉米蘇、超濃郁的巧克力蛋糕、抹茶蛋糕、跟花生焦糖蛋糕，還有做得小巧精緻的迷你馬卡龍。

（English/ 英文版）:

Our dinner show for the night was Baked Alaska, which is a dessert. In addition to the show, there is a whole table of dessert buffet, so we decided to pass on the “crème Brulee, and Oolong Tea Panna Cotta included on the menu.
Our favorites were the sesame pudding, tiramisu, a rich chocolate cake, matcha (green tea) cake, peanut caramel cake, mini macarons.

火焰阿拉斯加秀 / Baked Alaska Show：

晚餐秀廚師跟我們解釋說火焰阿拉斯加這道甜點起源於法國，當時受到王室貴族的喜愛，後來是由一位美國的華裔加以發揚光大，
是利用冰淇淋蛋糕表面包覆著蛋白霜，外型做得像雪山一樣，象徵著阿拉斯加的高山，最後再淋上火燒過的香橙酒，象徵著極光燃燒阿拉斯加的樣子。香橙酒經過現場點燃燒過後，表面就會充滿焦糖與柑橘的風味，味道也會變得比較有層次感。旁邊有芒果泥、巧克力跟草莓果泥，廚師建議搭配著吃。台北文華東方酒店吃到飽自助餐果然不失所望，保住它在殘編心中的寶座。

（English/ 英文版）:

According to the dessert chef hosting the show, this dessert （Baked Alaska) originated in France and was loved by the royalties, then promoted worldwide by a Chinese American.
It is a dessert made with ice cream cake and covered with meringue. The appearance is like a snow-capped mountain and symbolizes the mountains of Alaska. The dessert is topped with flaming orange liqueur, which symbolizes the aurora lighting up Alaska. After the liqueur has been burnt, the surface caramelizes with full of citrus flavors, and the taste will become more layered. The chef recommends topping the cake with some fruity purees that are available next to it. Mandarin Oriental Hotel Taipei’s Café Un Deux Trois’ 5-star buffet does not disappoint and like its hotel, still holds a special place in my heart.
