Asasumi
★ 4.0 · 98 reviews Taipei Opened 2026
Charcoal-grilled fish, the way breakfast should be
Skip the pancakes. Asasumi grills seasonal fish over charcoal and plates it with pickles and Japanese side dishes, the full asagohan setup instead of the usual Taipei brunch menu.
Fujin Street sits in Minsheng Community, Taipei's slowest, leafiest neighborhood, so the plan writes itself: grilled fish first, then a wander through the shops nearby. Weekends fill up fast, so go early.

The fish was good, oyster was good, too. The other side dishes and miso soup were ok. Nothing was really impressive.

Side dishes from left to right: Taitung Changbin Grilled Okra: The sauce likely contains fermented bean curd, and there might be some lemon zest on the side. It's slightly salty. The grilled okra has less slimy texture, but the taste is quite good. Salmon: Moderately seasoned. Tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet): Not overly sweet; the layers of flavor are average. Burnt Sausage: Average. Brussels Sprouts: Moderately seasoned. Miso Soup: Contains bean curd strips and seaweed; the flavor is okay, not too salty, but the portion is a bit small. Ginger and Mentaiko (spicy cod roe): Mentaiko is recommended to be served with rice. The ginger is great for adjusting the flavor. Fukuoka Mackerel: The skin is slightly charred, but the flesh inside is tender and oily. It's quite good with lemon juice.

The atmosphere was nice, but the service was just average. The price-performance ratio wasn't high; it's worth trying, but I wouldn't specifically return. There's a small card before you're seated explaining things, but while you seem to understand it, many things aren't immediately clear. For example, each grilling method is paired with different types of fish, and the price varies. Or, "Sold out" isn't shown on the menu. After looking at the menu and wanting your desired cooking method, you only realize it's sold out, making your trip feel like a waste. The food was good, and the dipping sauces/seasonings on the side were quite delicious.
