Taipei Day 3

Waiting in line at Taipei City Hall Station to get our MRT ticket to Xi Men Ding.

Arrived at Xi Men Ding and its really crowded at that time. Many people are sitting down and waiting for some events. 

Film or commercial shooting.

Starbucks

Xi Men Hong Lou.

Sand Bottle Art. Those pictures that are in the bottle are not papers, they are actually sand arts. 

If you got your pet dog/s waiting for you at home, you can get some accessories as souvenirs here.

Husky relaxing while the owner get some rest too.

Shi Lin Night Market

While walking to Taipei City Hall MRT Station

Arrived at Shi Lin Night Market

Waiting in line for some deep fried whipped cream.

...and finally, got mine share of deep fried whipped cream. But it's not really that special though as the taste is nothing different with a normal whipped cream.

Just got to try a Taipei version of apam balik (turnover pancake). But it didn't meet my expectation, it was rather hard but the taste was not bad though.

There is no point going Taipei if you don't try the bubble milk tea right?

Got a cup of milky grapefruit and of course Tapioca Bubble Milk Tea!! 

Taipei Day 2

Morning Taipei 101 view

Went to grab some breads for our half day tour.

The breads really do look tempting but we already bought some from another not so tempting stall. Dang!

Bread on a stick anyone?

Time for tour! All a board!

Statue of a Buddha @ Shangri-La

Nanya Rock Formation. 

Old gold manufacturing factory that is already closed down due to polluting the sea.

Island that shape like a Dragon head. Use your imagination and you'll be able to see a Dragon head and nose.

Yes, what you are seeing here are tomb stones.

Jinguashih Village. Didn't explore much around here as this is just the way we need to walk to Jiu Fen Street Market.

After a 10 minutes walk, we finally arrived at Jiu Fen Street Market.

Those are actually cartoon candies.

A uncle with a thin pastry skin + roasted grounded peanuts + ice cream...

This shop have two really good body guards don't they? haha

A glimpse of the back alley of Jiu Fen.

Well we are back in the city and decided to go for more walks and behold! Taipei 101 night view!

Agnes b. Cafe @ eslite

Get out from the hotel early in the morning on the second day. We headed to Eslite Mall for some yummy dessert @ Agnes b. Cafe

....and what do you know? It is just right in front of the main door of Eslite Mall!

It's kinda quiet since its still early. Well guest I can cut all the queue huh? haha

Too many desert to choose but too full to eat that much. Dang!

Bon appetit!

Valerie - chestnut puree, chocolate, marshmallow, sponge cake. 

Juliette - strawberry, strawberry custard, puff pastry.

Marion - nougatine, caramel custard, puff pastry. I know it looks exactly the same as the top, but I'm pretty sure this is caramel. haha
