A Hong Kong style restaurant on the second floor with a few Portugese/Mecanese dishes and a bakery on the ground floor. An outdoor wooden deck furnished with comfortable summer chairs and tables is a pleasant spot for a cup of coffee. The shrimp wonton comes with tasty broth and the shrimps are firm and delicious. Baked whole pigeon served with a piece of lemon, salt and pepper and Worcestershire sauce as condiment, is tender and juicy, a nice change from the familiar taste of chicken. Taipan’s shaola, roasted and barbebued meat is probably arguably the best in town. You can order anywhere from one up to three types of your favorite meats and it comes with a heap of steamed rice and two pieces of choyxim, the typical southern ‘heart vegetable’. There are also several kinds of curry dishes offered, ranging from 20 RMB to 98 RMB for crab curry. Portugese sausage garnished with tomatoes and onion and Mecanese fried rice is worth trying. Golden Jaguar is located on Donganmen Dajie and the cooked-to-order-feel of the restaurant is not a million miles away from that of the Wangfujing night market outside. The interior’s brightly-lit marble floors give it the anonymous atmosphere of an upscale canteen, but it does have a buzz about it, with cooks hovering over food stations and attentive staff constantly maneuvering between tables. Fish fans in the north of the city should head to their Yayuncun location.
