Yeah, it's nothing new to you, maybe, but a sandwich on a crusty roll can be a bit hard to find in Taiwan, so it's nice to have one right there in the basement of the Mitsukoshi down the street. Unfortunately, the menu is a sad shadow of its American cousins. The bread bowl is good, but the chowder was just a bit worse than disappointing. The ingredients in the chicken Caesar salad were all good enough, but in typical Taiwan fashion the dressing had the sweetness which I hate to find. Would've been good if I got the dressing on the side. Got the steak sandwich for myself, and it was tasty enough. The onion and jalapeño topping made it a bit awkward with the GF after the meal, though.
