Tainan Bistros and Wine Bars: Dates and Small Gatherings in Old Houses and Alleys
Kong Que (孔雀) has a deep-blue retro space that suits a date at night. At Dao Zhi Hou (島之後), the genmaicha risotto can be paired with a custom cocktail from the bartender. Zhu Guang (築光) serves German pork knuckle with crisp skin and tender meat. Most places have few seats and a minimum spend, so book ahead and ask about the minimum first.

築光Bistro,Coffee&Lounge(Bistro and coffee lounge)
A restaurant and bar that locals recommend on Threads. The German-style pork knuckle has crisp skin and tender meat, and the risotto, pizza and shrimp soft baguette also get good word of mouth. The space is roomy and well designed, the owner comes by the table to chat, and birthdays often come with a cake and small decorations as a surprise.

Some find the prices reasonable and the value high, and the set menu for two comes with a discount. Others find à la carte prices on the high side, and say two people may not get enough to eat.
