Went Taipei with my sister and my Les Berries bestie last month and three of us had a great time enjoying the food and shopping. Nearly don’t wanna come back lor :p Totally miss the food and shopping after we came back. Though it’s already my 3rd time to Taiwan but I still enjoyed my trip very much. The photos show it all!

Off to Taipei!

First stop was to eat Ah Zhong Mian Xian

Day 2 was a full day of visiting to other places as we have arranged a driver to bring us around.

First stop was to YehLiu.

Different types of rocks can be seen.

Look at the long queue of *ahem* ah tiongs wanting to take pics with the Queen’s Head. The driver told us because of weather, the neck of the Queen’s head is getting thinner. So in time to come, this famous structure will be gone le.

The weather on that day was super hot lor.

Welcome to Yehliu~!

Rows of shops selling local food stuffs.

Next was to ShiFen to put Tian Deng ~

Explaining to us the different colour of lanterns are for what purpose

Started writing our wishes . When the shopowner saw we wrote Dio Toto/4D, he said almost all Singaporeans wrote that lor -__-”’

Halfway through we got to move inside the shop to continue the writing cos the train was coming~~~ choo choo~~~

Our wishes with our signatures

Once the lantern was lighted, it moved up so fast before we could catch a good picture of it :-/ Jace was so scared of the huge fire as you can see from the pic. Really beri the hot u know~

From ShiFen we went to JiuFen~

I was so happy when I saw the stall selling smelly tofu but these two were not keen at all

But I told them to give it a try and they were converted very fast! :p

Another famous must-try dessert when you go JiuFen.

Love the pic I took with my sis!

Next we headed to JinGuaShi, Gold Mining Town.

and the Golden WaterFall …

Even saw this couple having their wedding photoshoot there

Keke… It’a always nice to have some ice-cream on a hot weather. My sister can’t stand it when I kept taking pics of them buying food :p

All three places covered!

Last stop was to Kee Lung Night Market! Food!!!

We were so spoilt for choices when we reached there.

This is not a normal looking fried chicken. It was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Awww~

We shared this and it tasted great too.

KeeLung Night Market seems to be famous with seafood so we tabao crab back to our hotel to eat. Yumzzzz

Day 3 we skipped breakfast and went straight for mala steamboat for lunch before we head to Wu Fen Pu for shopping.

Look at the wide selections of food

Big chunks of beef… Haagen Danz and Movenpick icecreams and free flow of Taiwan beer~~~

Nom…nom…nom…

After shopping at Wu Fen Pu, we walked to Raohe Night Market to get our dinner. We love night markets!

That two were so converted that they suggested tabao-ing smelly toufu back to eat. Haha~

Day 4 was another day of shopping. Brought my sister to her fav tw online shop near Taipei 101. Happy dao~

Jessica brought us to this place for some taiwanese food. The guy even posed for the photo lor. Keke

Took some pics while waiting for seats.

Concentrating on the menu…

The noodles very the Q lor~~~

We passed by a street all selling teas so we chose one and had some cold nice tea to cool ourselves down. Weather was so hot almost everyday when we were there.

A must-go for night markets – Shilin!!! And look at the long queue for Hao Da Fried Chicken!

We tried this for the first time and it tasted great.

Jessica’s friend recommended her to this famous smelly tofu. We tried both of mala noodles and smell toufu. We ordered 2 big servings of the smelly toufu lor. Now I think they will hate me for asking them to try it because they can’t find it in S’pore if they ever have any craving :p

And we chanced upon this long queue outside and went to check out what was it. Seems like a very famous shop selling desserts.

The queue was really too long and we didn’t wanna wait so we went to the shop opposite with a shorter queue. Oh man~~~ Their macha red bean ice was the best we have eaten. The ice was so soft~~~

Walked around abit and I saw this very familiar shop *erm…* selling smelly toufu. Quite similar to that one Max brought us near his house during the last taiwan trip. Tabao one bowl back and Jessica loved it too.

Day 5 was a more relaxed day for us. We had our lunch at this stall near our hotel selling duck noodles.

Shopping at Carrefour!!!

Shi Da Night Market on Day 5 for more yummy food and shopping …

We shopped till about 11pm before we went back to ShiLin Night Market to tabao whatever we wanted to eat for supper. Shiok!!!

Had early lunch on our last day in Taiwan

Went to try this near our hotel but were very disappointed because it didn’t tasted as good as what we had at Shilin night market

Goodbye Taiwan but we will be back very soon
