I chanced upon this charming neighborhood in Tainan one evening and decided to visit it again the next day. I had good reasons. The eco-friendly restaurant in the alley looked very tempting so I made a reservation on the spot for the next evening. The name of the alley seems to come from Yeh Shih-tao (葉石濤), writer who once lived here. The restaurant I had my dinner is called Dao Syuen (島旬). It is quite good. There are quite a few blog posts about this alley. The one from Lynda Lim includes many photos (http://lyndalimts.pixnet.net/blog/post/218400777-). She visited it in the early morning though.
