For 498 TWD or $16 USD, you can have all you can eat for lunch. It's 598 TWD or $20 USD for dinner. There were apparently cheaper options like hole-in-the-wall ones but they may not have been all you can eat but I just wanted to go to one that was nearby since we were getting tired near the end of the day to explore too far away from our hotel for dinner. This is actually not bad of a price but it may be considered expensive for locals there as food is ridiculously cheap and rarely do you see fat or heavy people here. They don't eat too much or they have high metabolisms. There is a mandatory 10% service charge which isn't too bad considering how most of the US demand for 18%+ in service charges these days and get really upset at a 10% tip.They gave a 2 hour limit per table in case people tried to take advantage of their buffet.
