The Formosa Restaurant
For over 30 years, the Formosa Restaurant has maintained a well-dressed, attentive staff and a lovely atmosphere of calligraphy-papered walls and softly lit red lanterns. Despite the formal dining room, prices are affordable, especially if you go for a lunch special, which comes with an entree, soup and fried rice. Favorite dishes include a number of healthy options such as vegetable soup, seafood and a number of steamed dishes. Splurges include the house duck and a particularly rich, sesame-encrusted Chicken.
