About Formosa Garden

Formosa Garden serves an entirely plant-based lineup of Taiwanese and Asian comfort classics in East Perth. Mark your order on paper slips at the counter, then watch steaming spreads arrive within minutes. Regulars bring omnivore family members who routinely mistake the crisp salted chicken for the real thing. The kitchen accommodates strict allium-free diets without skipping a beat, turning out fiery mapo tofu, broth-filled noodle bowls, and rich claypot beef with enoki mushrooms alongside cups of chilled bubble tea.

  • Fully Plant-Based Taiwanese Menu: Classic Taiwanese noodle soups, hotpots, and plant-based meats completely free of meat and seafood.
  • Allium-Free Accommodations: Dishes can be prepared strictly without garlic or onion without losing authentic, robust seasoning.
  • Fast Counter-Sheet Ordering: Guests mark paper slips and pay at the counter, with piping-hot courses hitting tables in minutes.
