Tairyo Biyori (大漁日和)

Yilan | Tairyo Biyori: a bountiful catch, and the freshest Japanese-style feast a foodie could ask for. Come through the Hsuehshan Tunnel, leave the interchange and turn onto a small road, and the air smells of rice fields. Calling charming Yilan Taipei's back garden hardly does it justice. It is the paradise every traveler dreams of, and Tairyo Biyori is the freshest Shangri-La a foodie could hope for. Experience the attentive touch of a Japanese family home: like every B&B in Yilan, Tairyo Biyori sits beside the fields, wrapped in local warmth. Still, it's hard to miss. A wooden door is set into light gray slate, with a few bicycles and potted plants beside it, and it feels warmer than the concrete buildings around it.
