Margaret's Garden overlooks a spectacular valley vista and with the awe-inspiring view mountain peaks of Nantou. The entrance to the restaurant was decorated with flowers, hanging chime, stone table and chairs. The restaurant is also basically painted with the color of purple, which made it fit much more naturally into the garden landscape.

The dining tables are filled with decorated daisy flowers.
On to the table, we ordered the shrimp tomato cucumber salad with sweet red chili glaze sauce. I can say they were fresh. The salad had this sweet yet spicy sauce and it was just great. Its beautiful colours isn't it?
Even a large bowl of soup or eggs and tomato always hit the spot.
Tender smoked duck breast comes in very thin slivers of what tasted like smoked ham to me.
We also had a stir fry cabbage its grown on this mountain region. It taste very fresh and organic.
To end off what was a very nice and filling lunch, we had coffee and tea. The iced Vienna espresso was presented with a mug of coffee, a glass filled with whipped cream to top of chocolate in a dish was all perfect blend.
The almond milk tea its good to shared for 2 people. The tea and almond was very creamy and fragrant.
I promptly ordered a hot coffee, I was very appreciative of this rich a cup of caramel machiatto coffee drink. It warmed me up fast and it was perfect during winter season.
Yummy homemade popsicles or fruit pops as we call them. And you may find them beside the Starbucks in Cing Jing area. They were brightly sweet, colored, ice on a stick and it came in different fruit flavors.
Our favorite part and the reason why we always come to Cing Jing. Beacause of this wasabi deep fry mushrooms, it was crisp bites of spicy wasabi powder from Alishan was blow you mind its delicious. If you are a deep fry mushroom mania. I recommend to try this fried mushroom and you may see this store or stall in Wushe area.

Overall we loved the Margaret's Garden and would definitely return. The service is pretty quick and what we appreciated most was that the flavors were simultaneously simple and complex, the ingredients was very fresh, and always very satisfying.
