Brunch at La Cocotte

Now let's walk around the little lanes in Taipei, there's one small cozy place which is quiet, elegantly decorated and has good food. Weekend brunch time is quite long, starts from eleven in the morning and lasts until three in the afternoon, suitable to meet a good old friend (or young friend)  and chat away the whole afternoon. Best of all, with healthy tasty food and a glass of  chilled nice bubbly.
