Taiwan!

Wow! I'm amazed.. Everyone is so enthu in posting here.. unlike my other group blog which is dead for a long time.. haha whee~ do keep the posts going :D

Anyway I shall be thick-skinned and post up my taiwan photos here, for the benefit of those who don't have fb. hee ^^

I shall post only the flattering photos of course! hehe


San Xiong Di at Xi Men Ding.. I really like their deserts and mango "cua4 bing1"



mango and peach snow shave


dead cat


no it's a dead pig..


anime cafe? we were quite apprehensive about entering this cafe initially.. haha cause we were worried it'd be like some sleazy place lol


i ordered a hazel nut milk drink which is not too bad.


not supposed to take pictures of the "maids" working there but we secretly snapped one anyway.


so cute! at Xi Men Ding. (i meant the gingerbread man :D)


night scene at Xi Men Ding. We shopped from morning til night. (almost everyday)


The Ding Tai Feng there which was rather disappointing. Sg's one tastes better.


On the 4hr bus ride to Yun Lin..where we were gonna visit Jian Fu San, a theme park


Min su (homestay) at Yun Lin


They serve fantastic breakfast btw, where we had in this garden.
But....There were bed bugs!!!!!!! We didn't realize til the next few days..see the next pic.
so annoyed by the bed bug bites thru'out the whole trip dat i kept snapping pics of my ugly legs (i dunno for what also)... Feel itchy just by looking at the pics!!!! all 4 of us dio.


Anyway..we had lunch at a place called "Ah Ma de Shi1 Fang2 Cai4" (too lazy to type chinese sorry.) Wahhhh this is easily the best dish we had in taiwan.. looks so unappetizing and plain but it's SUPERRRR yummy! *drool* it's some kinda bamboo shoot which I doubt you can find in Sg. sad..
salted pork. a bit salty but still yumz.


scenery around our min su.. this is the top that WP commented was ugly haha. ugly meh?


we bought similar tops from the same shop at Shihlin night market.. I think nice WAD

we were suffering from the crazy hot weather *sweat*


walking towards the theme park.. no pics of the park cause i didnt get those photos :/

The restaurant we went at night. Yun Lin is famous for coffee... too bad i dont drink coffee.

pretty nice ambience. i like :)


went for the hot springs next day... was a torture. bad idea to go in summer...
