About

HAIION restaurant draws its name from the Taiwanese pronunciation of whale, evoking a deep connection to the sea. Symbolizing not just the ocean but also Taiwan's likeness to a graceful whale navigating the Pacific, HAIION aims to share the rich nourishment of seafood integral to its culinary philosophy. With "people" as its focal point, it revolves around six elements: "touch, taste, sight, smell, sea, terroir", crafting a platform to articulate the language of cuisine.
