HEXA, which officially opened last week, is located about a 5-8-minute walk from Taipei Daan Station. Outside the store is a fresh white system with low-key texture. Inside, cement gray is the main color, with simple black and white. The seating space for coffee and light food is not too large. Coupled with the independent seats by the window, there are only about 5 tables. The space here does have a minimalist design attitude consistent with the brand concept.

HEXA's brand selections are mainly home, work and leisure. At present, there are as many as a dozen different brands. People who come to dinner for the first time may first notice the irregular water mark glass decorative plate on the table, which is also from HEXA's Korean design and life selection brand ABLE TIME. In addition, Hong Kong's handmade watch brand MAVEN WATCHES, and Seoul's well-known Oh, Scent! Fragrance brands can also be found in the selection space on the side.

Although there are not too many options on the HEXA menu, there are mainly three types of rice and two kinds of salad meals. Drinks offer Italian coffee, tea and seasonal sparkling drinks, as well as prepared plate fried and alcohol options, open at 11:00 every day, open from 10:00 on weekdays and 11:00 on weekends. All meals are served 24 hours a day, any time. Can enjoy different taste buds experience in this beautiful space.

● "ETNEWS News Cloud" reminds you: don't drink, don't drive, don't drink.

▼ Guali muscle Salad for $130

The portion of HEXA's salad is quite moderate. If you have some other staple foods with your friends, it is enough for two people to share together. In addition to the inside muscle, it is paired with chlamys farreri, potatoes and various fresh lettuce ingredients, and then sprinkled with homemade lemon oil vinegar sauce. The meat is locked in the meat by first frying and then roasting, and more original flavor is retained. The meat taste is good, but the proportion of the sauce and the amount of the sauce are a bit too heavy that day. Therefore, the ingredients of lettuce are stained with sauce, and the taste is obviously salty.

▼ smoke spices roast Rice with Stewed Chicken Leg for $170domestic use / $150takeout

The whole bowl of roasted Rice with Stewed Chicken Leg looks quite rich. The chicken leg is pickled before roasting, and the meat tastes good, but it is obviously too salty. The fresh lettuce is not covered with any sauce and is presented in the original taste. However, if you are not accustomed to eating it raw, you should mix it with other ingredients, which should be more moderate and lower in taste. On the contrary, I prefer the ingredients such as stir-fried eggplant and roasted small red potatoes. On the whole, I think that the concept and richness I want to present are very good, but if the taste can be slightly adjusted, it should be better.

▼ fries, cheese chips, fried chicken $250

The whole portion is suitable for 2-3 people to share, and all three kinds of fries taste good, but the French fries and chicken are also obviously salty; cheese strips choose mozzarella cheese, which is also strong and heavy, suitable for cool beer.

▼ American Coffee costs $100 / slightly sour and tastes good.

▼ lemon bubble $110,

It tastes sweet and sour, and its performance is moderate.

▼ Taiwan native sesame relatives $240,

The hand-made dessert here, selected from the Amor House private house dessert, is soft and flexible and tastes moist, with rich sesame stuffing on the inside and soft fresh cream on top. The overall taste of sesame is memorable, slightly with a fresh flavor, so delicious that it can be eaten by one person, but it is actually 3 inches large, and it is OK for two people to share it.

After eating, I specially checked the Internet information. Amor House private house dessert is a dessert studio for two set up in May this year, which only provides online home matching to order, while the dessert in the studio is currently dominated by Qifeng cake.

HEXA meals and drinks are served with takeout, lunch boxes offer a discount of 20 yuan, and some areas (Songshan District, Xinyi District, Da'an District) also have a delivery service of more than 700 yuan (you need to make an appointment before 11:00).

Postscript

-

Like the Nordic style life attitude that HEXA wants to show you in Taipei, it is very beautiful and temperamental, and the unique design texture of the selected items is also pleasing to the eye. I feel that there is another good place to choose gifts. In contrast, the taste of this meal is a little too salty, less of the original concept of light diet that the store wants to convey, but it is also expected that future meals will have a more consistent and moderate taste adjustment. I believe that the beautiful belief of the HEXA brand to "live a simple but not simple life" will certainly make more people feel.
