Shin Yeh

Taiwanese cuisine is identifiably Min but with its own nuances. It is proudly, wholesomely home-cooking. Shin Yeh began 42 years ago in 1977 when LEE Xiu Ying fulfilled her dream of opening a small restaurant in a Taipei back alley. She was in charge of the kitchen. Starting with 11 tables Shin Yeh has since grown to 11 restaurants with several hundred tables offering mouthwatering Taiwanese cuisine. Behind this successful woman stands a little army of chefs.
