An unsolicited very personal opinion of a non-expert average being in the search for the greatest 檸檬-西西里咖啡 in Taiwan.
Overall 西西里咖啡 rate - 3.5/5. Good, refreshing, but on the pricey side.
Coffee: 🆗 - a bit hard to distinguish. Its taste gets lost in the drink. Perhaps using some medium to dark roast would help to make the coffee stand out a bit more. Sweetness: ✅ - just about right.

Then the server told us we had to order drinks to reach our minimum fee to stay in the restaurant. That sent us over the top. You’re telling me I just spent almost $1100 and I had to spend another egregious amount on a drink. Sped out of that place as fast as humanly possible. Never...
