Japanese Sake & Taiwanese Tapas Tasting – Ni Fon Kitchen × TAZAKI

Ni Fon Kitchen × Sake experts by TAZAKI

Taiwan and Japan. Three hours apart. Generations of friendship. Two island nations shaped by the same sea, the same mountains, the same belief that the best food is honest, light, and made with care.

This spring, Ni Fon Kitchen brings both worlds to one table — five Japanese sakes paired with four Taiwanese small bites, handmade the way your grandmother would recognise. Rice feeds us both. Rice becomes sake. And sake, it turns out, was always meant to be drunk alongside the bright, clean flavours of a Taiwanese spring table. An oriental breeze in every sip. A story in every bite.
