Longtail
Longtail is a restaurant in Huxiao Village featuring modern design, warm lighting, and comfortable seating arranged around an open kitchen. The space includes stylish touches such as terracotta walls, a marble counter, and Japanese kintsugi art that create an elegant yet welcoming environment for dining.
The restaurant underwent recent renovation and earned multiple Michelin stars for its high-quality cuisine. After a kitchen change in 2024, it shifted focus to feature a blend of Cantonese flavors with North American cooking techniques such as grilling and fermentation.
Longtail functions as a gathering place for the local community and visitors in Huxiao Village, drawing people together for evening meals and conversations. The restaurant reflects contemporary village life by blending modern design with traditional hospitality values that make guests feel welcomed and at home.
Reservations are recommended in advance, especially for tasting menus or busy evenings. The restaurant offers both regular seating and traditional tatami mat seating near the kitchen, stays open in the evening hours, and has street parking available nearby.
A house specialty is the crispy Kaya French toast served with espresso ice cream, a popular dish that brings guests back repeatedly. The combination of a caramelized exterior, creamy center, and bitter espresso notes creates a balanced flavor experience that leaves a lasting impression.
