Taipei Bistro 》搬家後訂位困難的草頭西餐酒館值得再訪
Last Updated on 2021-10-27 by Foodelicious
(2021.10 更新) 搬家後重新開幕的 草頭西餐酒館 是2021 台北新開幕餐廳美食 , 多數饕客都知道草頭西訂位困難, 草頭西菜單與酒單也不定期更換, 依舊是我的台北餐酒館推薦之一.
( 2021. 10 Update ) After moving and reopening, Catouxi Bistro becomes one of the 2021 Taipei new restaurants. It is difficult to reserve seats. Catouxi menu and alcohol menu sometimes would change. But, it is still one of the Taipei Bistro Recommendation.

草頭西訂位
Catouxi Bistro Reservation
草頭西餐廳離台電大樓捷運站4號出口約 15 ~ 20 分鐘路程, 沿著師大路轉進巷弄即可抵達, 一整排高腳椅與 “Parko Parco 餐酒館 “相似, 窗邊有兩張桌子, 各可兩人坐, 在這特別的餐酒館, 我會建議坐高腳椅. 草頭西是預約制 , 無法 Walk-in , 訂位規則以他們的 Facebook 公告為主 ( https://www.facebook.com/catouxi2020 ) , 每個月的25號早上 9:00 am 開放「下」一個月整月份的 Facebook 私訊預約, 相信我, 訂位很快就會滿.
Catouxi Bistro is about 15 ~ 20 minutes walking distance from Tai Power Building MRT station Exit 4. The high chair seating area is similar with “Parko Parco Bistro”. There are two tables for 4 people near the window. The reservation policy is stated at their Facebook announcement ( https://www.facebook.com/catouxi2020 ). Usually, the reservation time starts at 25th of every month for the next month reservation via Facebook private message. Trust me, the reservation is filled up easily.

草頭西菜單 & 停車
Catouxi Bistro Menu & Parking
我個人建議搭大眾運輸, 因為草頭西就是要喝酒搭配菜. 我還是找了停車場地圖給你們 (圖一) , 草頭西有賣單杯紅白酒與精釀啤酒. 小黑板有當日菜餚名稱與價格 (圖二), 菜單會不定期更換.
I would suggest you guys to take MRT public transportation since you might drink to pair with the dishes. But, I still get the parking map for your guys (pic 1). They also offer single glass red wine, white wine and craft beer. The menu might change time by time. The black board has the menu and its price (Picture 2).

草頭西 – 菜餚
Catouxi Bistro -Dish
烤軟絲, 墨魚醬汁, 烤馬鈴薯
Grilled Cuttlefish, Squid-Ink Sauce, Baked Potato
Price: NTD $500
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍👍
現流海鮮是我到草頭西專攻的菜餚, 我個人很喜歡吃簡單的烤軟絲, 比 “請客樓”運用複雜料理手法的紅糟軟絲好吃許多,微炙厚切烤軟絲吃起來意外地嫩, 並不是西式烤花枝硬口感, 好吃程度與 ”山男 YAMASAN”一樣高. 沾著綿密黏口的黑色墨魚醬汁入口, 搭配提味的香草 ( Herbs ) , 更讓鮮味增加. 馬鈴薯的紮實口感與其他食材口感截然不同, 澱粉是一道完整菜餚裡所需要的元素. NTD $500 我可以接受, 也很推薦.
I always focus on seafood dishes at Catouxi Bistro. I personally like to eat simply grilled cuttlefish. It tastes better than the fried cuttlefish dish at “The Guest House”. The grilled cuttlefish is tender instead of hard texture. The delicious level is as high as “YAMASAN”. The squid-ink sauce is in thick texture. Dipping in the sauce and pairing with herbs will increase the seafood flavor. The starch from the potato completes this dish. I can accept NTD $500 and also recommend it.

甜蝦, 魚, 蛋
Shrimp, Fish, Egg
Price: NTD $420
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
這些食材聽起來很樸實, 做出來的菜餚比預期地精彩. 雖然沒有 “JUJU Spanish Gastrobar “ 的西班牙馬鈴薯烘蛋厚實, 烹調手法與菜餚成品也絲毫不馬虎, 先是在瓦斯爐烹調悶煮, 之後再端進烤箱, 不僅有誘人的半熟蛋, 蛋白邊緣也微脆, 主廚善用香草 (Herbs) 搭配中Size的甜蝦與魚不違和, 因為這一道菜餚有三顆蛋, 建議 2 ~ 3人分享.
Those ingredients sound simple. But the finished dish is better than expected. This egg dish is not as thick as “JUJU Spanish Gastrobar” Tortilla de patatas. But the cooking method and display is done by experienced chef. All the ingredients are cooked on the stove and then baked at the oven. It has the half-boiled egg, the egg white is a bit crispy as well. The chef pairs the herbs well with the medium size shrimp and fish. Because this dish has three eggs, I would suggest 2 ~ 3 people to share.

炸牛肚, 辣蕃茄醬
Fried Tripe , Spicy Tomato Sauce
Price: NTD $340
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
我上次吃炸牛肚是在 “Salotto 19 食酒客廳” , 這次在草頭西餐酒館純粹只是想念這道菜餚. 因為我吃小辣, 主廚細心地將辣蕃茄醬裝在小碗裡, 避免炸牛肚沾到辣蕃茄醬.如同雪花般的起司挑起食慾, 搭配微脆美味的炸牛肚, 我自己一個人可以吃完這一道菜餚.
Last time I ate Fried Tripe was at “Salotto 19 Restaurant”. This time, I ordered this dish just because I miss the taste. Because I can only eat mild spicy food, the chef puts the spicy tomato sauce inside the small container and put aside. So, the fried tripe won’t be near the spicy sauce at all. The shredded cheese increases the appetite. The fried tripes are crispy and delicious. I can finish this dish by myself.

金殼蝦, 豬背脂, 煙燻葡萄
Grape Shrimp, Lardo, Smoked Grape
Price: NTD $420
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍👍
我這次到草頭西是專攻海鮮, 這一道在小黑板是在 “當日海鮮: 時價“, 與其中一位 Chef 聊得知現流海鮮來自濱江或合作漁船, 金殼蝦就是葡萄蝦, 是少數可以做成頂級日本刺身的蝦類, 另外一項少見的食材是豬背脂, 在義大利餐廳有吃過類似的鹽醃豬背脂, 金殼蝦的蝦肉鮮甜,豬背脂滑嫩與油脂更突顯出蝦的爽口程度高, 煙燻葡萄更增加另一層果香風味, 美味程度比預期地高, NTD $420 很值得, 我個人很推薦, 因為是現流海鮮, 下一次可能就吃不到這道了.
This time, I focus on Catouxi Bistro’s seafood dish. This dish is under the category of “Daily Seafood: Based on its present price”. One of the chefs mentioned that their fresh seafood is from Binjiang Market or the cooperated fish boats. The grape shrimp is one of a few shrimps that can be made with top level Japanese nigiri. The other rare ingredients would be the lard. In Italian restaurant, the ingredient is called Lardo di Colonnata. The shrimp tastes fresh and sweet. The smooth fats from the lard enhanced the seafood flavor. The smoked grapes brings the refresh fruity flavor to the tastebuds. The delicious level is higher thane expected. NTD $420 is definitely worth it. I would definitely recommend it.

尖梭魚, 鯷魚麵包粉, 沙拉
Great Barracuda, Anchovy Bread Crumbs, Salad
Price: NTD $560
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍👍
這道也是當日海鮮, 當我聽到尖梭魚, 我第一個反應是刺應該會很多, 之後 Chef 回覆魚刺已挑掉, 而且是將尖梭魚做成捲型. 端上桌時, 外型類似 “Pasti”的烤白帶魚捲煙燻起司, 草頭西主廚將魚其串起來以免脫落. 尖梭魚就跟 “千壽鰻魚飯” 一樣刺都被細心地挑掉, 適量鹹度裡也是可以感受到魚肉的肥美, 灑在上方的鯷魚麵包粉不僅增加鹽漬海鮮風味, 更增加口感, 建議搭酒, 一旁搭配的沙拉則是讓味蕾清爽. 我個人很推薦這一道, 只是下ㄧ次要見到類似菜餚就要靠緣份.
This dish is also under daily seafood category. When I heard of Great Barracuda, my first response would be “There are gonna be lots of fish bones, aint it?”. Chef explained that the fish is without bones and make into roll shape. The appearance is similar with “Pasti” fish roll. As the chef explain, the fish is perfectly boneless, just like “Senju Taipei” eel rice. The salty level is medium-high. But, you can still tastes the delicious seafood flavor from the fish. The anchovy crumbs brings crispy texture and enhances more seafood flavor. I would suggest to pair with the wines or beers. I would also recommend this dish as well.

碳烤中卷, 芥蘭花, 青檸辣椒
Grilled Squid, Chinese Kale, Lemon Green Pepper
Price: NTD $420
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
吃完現流海鮮項目, 就點小黑板上的這道海鮮. 碳烤中卷份量適量, 酸香微辣青檸辣椒風味注入東南亞風格在這道菜餚. Chef 有細心地將芥蘭花的粗纖維挑掉, 整體吃起來非常脆, 中卷口感也不會過硬. 我個人也覺得不錯吃.
This dish is on the blackboard. The grilled squid quantity is fair amount. The acidity and sour flavor is from the lemon green pepper sauce. The overall flavor is toward South Eastern Asian cuisine. The Chinese Kale is quite refresh instead of bitterness. The dish tastes is quite good.
草頭西 – 甜點
Catouxi Bistro -Dessert
布拉塔起司 , 松子, 甜柿
Burrata Cheese , Pine Nuts, Persimmon
Price: NTD $360
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍
布拉塔起司可以算是另類甜點, 只是台灣人通常將起司當作前菜, 就像我在 “Vice Versa 餐廳“ 吃到的布拉塔起司與醃漬橄欖前菜. 柔軟滑順的布拉塔起司非常討喜, 主廚再加上甜柿,甜菊花葉 ,橄欖油, 香料油與松子, 讓這道甜點更精彩與多層風味.
Burrata Cheese can be considered as dessert. However, Taiwanese always consider Burrata Cheese as appetizer, just like the Burrata cheese that I had at “Vice Versa Restaurant”. The soft and smooth texture of the cheese is quite attractive. The chef adds persimmon, chrysanthemum leaf, EVOO, spiced oil, and pine nuts into this dish. Overall, this dessert becomes layers of flavors and full of surprises.

草莓奶酪
Strawberry Panna Cotta
Price: NTD $200
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
我完全沒想到草頭西會自己做甜點, 草頭西的綿密奶酪搭配新鮮草莓很美味, 我其實很少在台北餐酒館吃到好吃美味且自己作的甜點, 目前我滿意的餐酒館甜點只有 “Bottless 非瓶“ 與 ”Allez Bistro” , 草頭西是第三個. 下次再訪我應該會再點其他甜點.
I didn’t expect Catouxi Bistro makes their own dessert. Their creamy Panna Cotta pairs great with the fresh strawberry. I rarely eat delicious dessert at Taipei Bistro. Only “Bottless Bistro” and “Allez Bistro” make quite good dessert. Now, Catouxi Bistro is the third one. Next time at my visit, I would order other desserts.

草頭西 – 單杯葡萄酒
Catouxi Bistro – Single Glass Wine
Esprit Prométhée
Price: NTD $360
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
草頭西的選酒都是自然酒, 而且都有單杯酒選項. 我個人喜歡白酒搭配海鮮, 這一款法國白酒是 Mikael Bouges Esprit Prométhée , 葡萄品種為 Chenin Blanc,礦石風味特質比蜂蜜更明顯, 酸度不過於尖銳, 但頗有存在感, 適合搭配海鮮.
Catouxi Bistro wines are natural wines. And they offer single glass. I personally like to pair seafood with white wine. This French White wine is Mikael Bouges Esprit Prométhée. The grape is Chenin Blanc. The mineral flavor is more obvious than the honey flavor. The acidity is not too sharp but can sense its existence for sure. It pairs well with the seafood.
Don Kindeli Tinto Red Blend
Price: NTD $280
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍
這款紐西蘭紅酒有 90% Pinot Noir, 5% Syrah, 5% Petit Verdot , 我會建議先靜置 5 分鐘再品酌, 酒體偏輕盈, 酒的顏色微紫紅, 單寧不明顯, 覆盆子與紅醋栗等紅色水果風味十足, 可能是因為我吃的是重口味炸牛肚搭配辣番茄醬, 感覺這杯紅酒的特色被菜餚壓過.
This New Zealand red wine has 90% Pinot Noir, 5% Syrah, 5% Petit Verdot. I would suggest to let it rest for 5 minutes before drinking. The wine body is toward light. The wine color is purple-red. The tannin is not too obvious. The raspberry and red currant are quite flavorful. Maybe because I ate the heavy flavor dish – Fried Tripe with spicy tomato sauce, the red wine characters are mostly covered.
Morando Silvio Naturalmente Bianco
Single Glass Wine: NTD $280
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
這款是來自北義的白酒, 混釀葡萄有 Chardonnay, Favorite , 和 Cortese. 這款自然酒不過濾, 但是聞起來並沒有濃烈二氧化硫味道, 而是有些許水梨果香, 適量酸度讓這款酒適合搭配我點的海鮮. 這款酒 “Pure Wine 璞斟酒窖”有販售.
The unfiltered wine is from Northern Italia. The grapes include Chardonnay, Favorite and Cortese. It doesn’t smell strong SO2. It has small amount of pear flavor. The medium acidity pairs great with my seafood dish. This wine is also sold at “Pure Wine”.

Domaine Gardies On s’en Fish
Single Glass Wine: NTD $280
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍👍
這款是來自法國知名區域 Languedoc-Roussilon 的紅酒, 混釀葡萄是我不熟悉的 Cinsault 與 Carignan, 草莓與櫻桃風味多過於黑莓風味, 是我喜歡的酒款風味類型, 可以搭配海鮮並不會違和.
This red wine is from Languedoc-Roussilon, France. The grapes include Cinsault and Carignan. The strawberry and cherry flavors are stronger than the black berry flavors. It is my favorite wine type. This red wine can pair well with the seafood.
Els Vinyerons vins Naturals Saltamarti
Single Glass Wine: NTD $280
Foodelicious 美味程度: 👍👍👍
這款西班牙混釀葡萄有 Tempranillo , 與 Grenache. 黑醋栗與李子風味偏多,有比較少見的礦石味, 我個人是比較喜歡上一支 Domaine Gardies On s’en Fish.
This Spanish wine include Tempranillo and Grenache. The plum and black berry flavor is quite strong. It also has fair amount of mineral flavor. I would prefer the previous wine – Domaine Gardies On s’en Fish.

結論 Conclusion⭐
草頭西餐酒館目前只有ㄧ位廚師在開放式廚房工作,講述菜餚與酒款的時候非常專業, 現流海鮮對我來說是可遇不可求, 我到草頭西是專攻海鮮, 我會建議你們至少要點一款現流海鮮, 草頭西餐酒館甜點也在水準之上, 而且美味程度完全 match 價格. 我會建議搭配酒, 要不然你會覺得全部的菜餚偏鹹. 我個人很推薦這家餐酒館.
There is only one Catouxi Bistro chef working at the open kitchen. He explains the dishes and the wines in a professional level. The daily seafood category is quite special. I focus on ordering seafood every time. I would suggest to order at least one daily seafood dish. Their dessert is quite yummy too. The delicious level matches its price. I would suggest to pair with wines. Or else, you might consider all the dishes are salty in Taiwanese’s taste. I would definitely recommend this bistro.
