Why choose a café off the main strip?

The streets around Zhongshan Station are some of the busiest in Taipei. A few minutes’ walk away, Lane 53 is a different world: a quiet lane between Chifeng Street and the park, a small café built for slowing down, and a lazy dog mascot setting the pace. NOR is open daily, dogs are welcome, and the menu leads with two cream-top signatures — peanut butter, and salted caramel sea-salt. See the full menu.
