Taipei 101


Inside the shopping centre of Taipei 101

We got tickets to Taipei 101! I feel that its not really worth the queue and wait just to go up. Unless you are super interested in the history of Taiwan or for the experience and thrilled of it. If not, I would rather you spend the time exploring other parts of the area.
 Listening to the recorder on the areas on top of Taipei 101

A must-try Ding Tai Feng when we are there!
Happens to see this bling bling eiffel tower. Looks really cute.
鬍鬚張 - checked!
We were told that this was one of the famous "Ru Rou Fan" (Taiwanese Pork Braised Rice) located near 五分埔. Honestly, there are many many places that sells this pork braised rice and most of them taste really really good in a really affordable price too. But for 鬍鬚張, they do provide packed pork braised so that you can packed back home to eat.
淡水老街 
My personal favourite place in Taiwan. Because the place is really cooling, pretty nice and calm. Can take a long stroll along the place and enjoy the food. Although the travel journey, if i recall is kinda long. But how can you miss the Tie Dan when you're in Taiwan?? Didn't really take us really long to finish the whole stretch of place and headed to another night market.

Yu Ren Ma Tou (漁人碼頭) - checked!




Mini Ah Po Tie Dan (阿婆铁蛋) - checked!
Night market - checked!
There are many night market that you will get to explore and there's many things you can do in just 1 night market. So most of our nights are spent in night market, not just eating but much entertainment thu' out the night. Its one of the best place to shop for cheap and good food. 


 And many Taiwan sausages not to be missed :) - checked!
Ah zhong Mian Xian (阿宗麵線) - checked!
I think you should have known that they are famous for their intestine mee sua instead of the common ones we've seen in Singapore which is the oyster mee sua. All and all, I prefer intestine mee sua cause of the chew chew feeling. Heh. If you know wht i mean! 



One last post on Taiwan - Taipei on all other things I've yet to mention like the theme parks at Leofu Village (one of the scariest roller coaster rides I've encounter)
