For those living in the city,
when was the last time you truly sat down for a good meal?
What if a restaurant was more than just a place to eat—
but a table that connects you
to Taiwan’s land, culture,
and even the next generation?
—
In 2026, île wants to do something more meaningful.
We are bringing the table back to the ocean.
Through three dining experiences,
we journey across three different coastal cultures of Taiwan—
from an international fishing port,
to a tidal flat fishing village,
to a captain who still sails the sea.
This is not just about seafood.
It’s about rediscovering:
👉 what is happening to our ocean.
—
▍This is not just a meal.
It is for those living in the city
who are beginning to care about
what they eat,
and what is happening to the land.
It is also an opportunity
to reconnect with food
through a more transparent and conscious sourcing system.
Perfect for corporate gatherings,
team experiences,
or anyone seeking a more meaningful dining moment.

▍Local Regeneration × Sustainability
One table. Three coastal stories.
Each experience reflects a different way of life.

A major international fishing port in central Taiwan

this experience presents the richness of mullet and threadfin.
Interpreted through Japanese × French culinary techniques,
reimagining a modern Taiwanese ocean feast.
—
▸ 07 / 07|Fangyuan Tidal Flats, Changhua
A place where people live with the sea,
deeply connected to both nature and social realities.
Rooted in self-sustaining fishing village culture,
this experience invites you to rediscover
how humans and nature coexist.
—
▸ 09 / 02|Keelung Harbor × Captain Lin Xin-Yong
A fisherman in his 70s who still goes out to sea,
practicing sustainable fishing through RFI methods.
Centered around Keelung’s local food culture,
featuring seasonal catch and coastal flavors,
telling the story of the northern sea.
—
▍The reality we face
We eat seafood often,
but rarely understand the ocean behind it.
We want to support sustainability,
but don’t know where to begin.
—
▍Our approach at île
We start with the table.
✔ Sourced from RFI sustainable fisheries
✔ Stories told through food, not lectures
✔ Where sustainability and flavor coexist
5% of proceeds from each dinner
will be donated to children’s sustainability education.
Because the next generation
deserves to truly know the ocean.
