Taipei, Taiwan - Day 1

From Jiu Fen, we took 1062 bus to Taipei. Direct from the place we stay at Jiu Fen. No transfer needed as we carry heavy duty luggage. This way is nothing more convenient and finally we only need to take train to where we stay.

Place that we gona stay for 3 nights. This might not be as good as previous homestay we went but one thing that is good, we can just walk to the biggest Shihlin Night Market within walking distance and also to the train station.

Put down our burden, the luggage, we went to explore the magnificent Taipei where this is the most attractive city of Taiwan.




From Taipei city, we went to Xi Men Ding. Too bad that the weather does not really allow us to go further. Even shopping is restricted but we will not stop searching for food. We are the food hunter. Good food should be hunt. We went high and low searching for something everyone had been saying. We had turn everywhere to look for it, ask people around but some don't even get to tell us the exact location. However, our hard work does pay. We finally found it. This is what we are looking for.



From Xi Men Ding we went to C.K.S Memorial Hall. Still rain when we reached.






Sky turns dark really fast. It is only around 5.30pm when the lights lighten up and sky turns dark totally. We decided to hunt for food. No no night market food this time. We waited more than an hour for this. See what we had on the next review.

Angels & Demons

This is another great production after DaVinci Code. This is greater, excited and more knowledgeable movie. This movie is more to Christian history and all the ceremony and nevertheless famous place that Christian treat as honourable. I have nothing much to comment on this movie as I think from the beginning till the end the story was quite good. The flow is indeed smooth and connected. I did enjoy the time Tom Hanks search for clue to find the candidate popes where they were hide and the place they will get killed. There is so much excitement in it. My feeling was just like a roller coaster going ups and downs without knowing what would it be the next moment. I could only give two thumbs up for it. Don't believe what I said? Watch it yourself and you will know what I meant.

Photography

Recently, I am up to more nature photography. Those who know me well knows that I am always girl with my babe (camera) around. Non stop taking food places and something which is akward and new to my eyes. Nowadays I find out that the view out from my balcony and window is so tentative and fascinating that I did not realise before. Here are some shot that I had taken and I hope for some comment for my improvement in future! SUNSET FROM WINDOW VIEW For this picture, I take in two ways. a wish for brighter sky but somehow when I get the color of sky I want the light out from the blue cloud could not be seen clearly. Only when I set it to darker mode then the light out of the cloud could be emphasize out. LIGHT, SIGN OF BETTER DAY

YOU TIAO & JOHN KING TART

YOU TIAO is what we called in Chinese and ' YAO ZA GUAI ' is what Cantonese named it and this food is said to be origin from Cantonese people. This is one of the high demand food in Pavilion. It is simple, non-oily and reasonable in price. Their freshly made Tau Foo Far taste great and it is so smooth and doesn't have much of the bean taste which make people hardly love to eat them..... You Tiao - It is so crispy to eat just like that or you wanted to eat with their plain porridge would also be great because the combination of both makes perfect!!! Porridge - Their porridge is not so hardened or over watery. I guess that's the perfect way to describe. It is just alright and you can hardly see the rice but instead it is little sticky which a porridge should have.... After having that, my friend continuing exploring other food in the section. We go for the tart that had been very popular and keep mentioning by those who had ever had them. The legendary tart, ...
