Sweet Treats of Miyahara

Miyahara (宫原眼科) was once an ophthalmology clinic back in the day, but now is a popular dessert shop and restaurant (2nd floor) in a refurbished century-old red-brick building. It is located at 20 Zhongshan Road, Central District, Taichung, and is open daily from 1000-2100. It is around 350 meters 5 minutes walk from Taichung train station. The building had preserved the original red-brick walls and archway, the interior decor was redesigned like you've stepped into a Harry Potter movie with tall ceilings and brown wooden bookshelves. It is a retail store that sells chocolate, cookies, and traditional Taiwsanese pastries, including pineapple cake and sun cakes. And not to mention, the Miyahara ice-cream parlour, one of the best in town.
