Day 4 @ Taipei (Part II) (6-10May2011)
Yes, like what my previous post said, Off to Danshui station.
And i didn't regret going there because experience a few rare stuff !
What is it ? I will post the photo for sure.. So continue reading ~
i guess you can see some artiste or singer in those drawing ! They are really good ! :D
When we reached DanShui station, we were a bit lost but we find our way there asking people.
So the first place will be "Lao Jie". Is somehow like those Shilin Night market or Raohe Street Night Market just that this place you can come in the afternoon and is open already. :D
Before i stepped in to Lao Jie, I see this cute handphone pouch that make me stopped and looking at it. And is my favourite Charmmy Kitty ! I swear is difficult to find Charmmy Kitty in Singapore already because is starting to extinct ! Lol.
Of course i got one Charmmy Kitty handphone pouch, but i can't remember how much i bought it. It won't be too expensive if not i guess i won't be buying it too.
After that i saw this "Tie Dan" and this is the first thing that i feel kind of special which my mum want me to buy it back home. When she first told me about it, i was like what is "Metal Egg" ? Lol ! And so i actually find out from the stall that it is actually like Braised Egg just that more time and more ingredient to make this "Tie Dan".
I bought 3 packet in total..
Continue walking, and you will saw this Giant Ice Cream.
They have two type, one is slightly shorter. And i ordered the tallest one to have a look of the big size. But is not a wise choice !! You will sure regret if you can't finish that ice cream in a fast speed.
So what i did is to took picture with this tall ice cream and only manage to finish half of the ice cream with baby. It was dripping like hell, i look like a small kid eating ice cream as all the melted ice cream is all over my hand ! And i started to be irritated by the ice cream, so eventually throw the whole ice cream away. :X
With all this street food, baby and I can be really full without even eating at restaurants !
And most of their street food are nice ! How i wish it is in Singapore !
There is also a somehow musuem with all the weird or incredible collection.
Didn't went in because i just feel a bit scary by looking at the outside. Anyway there is a small admission fee if you want to go in.
We went in to this shop and i thought that it was fake sex shop stuff.
But after asking then i realise is real sex shop stuff just that they make the packaging in a different way and as for some of the products is disturbing one. Feel so paiseh that actually ask them what it is. Kind of funny....
Continue walking again, and i saw this sugar coated fruits. Is called "Tang Hu Lu" which i normally heard this word in drama...
It taste normal just that your fruits are really sweet coated with sugar.
Then we saw this cute little stall selling SPONGEBOB ? No ! They are selling like those pancake that you can see in fish shape in Singapore. But they have so many cute shapes !! I believe it tempted a lot kids to eat that.
And we started walking down to our next destination, Yu Ren Ma Tou !
That i heard many people saying about that place too ! But i don't know is it baby and I walked a wrong path, we seems to walk about 1hr and yet we still can't reach!
We even saw two pig outside some houses.. :D
In the end, both of us were really tired so we actually took cab in.
And i believe the cab driver actually anyhow add money say there is some other charges. But forget it, we just give him the amount and went down.
Time for photo taking ~ Although that places is better if you go during the night time as the lights make it really attractive but due to the time i left, i can't manage to go there during night time.
When we start to walk on to this so called "Lover Bridge", guess who i saw !
Hahah !
Is not any artiste or singer though.
I actually saw my cousin ! And don't misunderstand, they don't stay Taiwan.
They stay in Singapore too ! I didn't know they went Taiwan too but around 1 or 2 days later than us. They were there because one of my cousin is taking wedding photos there. :D
IS SUPER COINCIDENCE ! Taiwan so big still can met them.
After that baby and I continue to walk around but seriously there are nothing much to walk...
We just took pictures and decided to take the boat back.
Is only around $5 for each person if i didn't remember wrong. And is definitely cheaper and better than you take cab in or walk a long distance. :D
A experience of taking boat too...
Finally we are back to "Lao Jie" and baby saw a lot of games....
Most of the games are using their so called gun to shoot those balloons.
You won't get to play in Singapore because of safety..
Baby played and he actually manage to catch the technique, i was like woah...
He really did shoot almost all the balloon, but when see others playing seems so difficult.
Afterall the game is not worth as even you shoot all the balloons, you have to play quite a few times then you can get those big toys as present so stopped the game...
Then i get this swirled potato chips that you can actually see it now in Singapore as some Pasar Malam actually sell it.
Got the cheese flavor one. :D
Baby was tired walking anymore so we took cab down to ShiLin Night Market, the biggest night market in Taiwan ? I guess so... Is seriously big as they got two side ! One mainly for food and another one mainly for shopping. But do remember they only start open around evening time.
When we reached ShiLin Night Market was still early, not much stalls had opened yet.
But still able to shop.. Had the best beancurd among all those i had tried in Taipei.
Probably the ingredient i able to choose is also the type that i like.
After that i bought two stretch of False Eyelashes ! Is damn cheap but didn't took a picture of it.
Is a small stall at a corner. It sell two stretch at 150NTD.
Each stretch have 10pairs and which means 1pair is only about $0.30 - $0.40 in Singapore !
Then i tried this Fried Milk Stick ! Is damn nice ! I really love the taste.
The outside part is crispy and went you bite, the inner part is a bit like pudding but is in a milk taste. I bought total of 5sticks, eating and eating. :D
I will definitely buy it again if i go Taiwan again.
Then we shopped a while and off to the food section.
And the best Crispy Chicken in Taipei ! :D Yummy ! You will definitely love it !
The tender juicy chicken with the crispy skin and in the XXL size compared to Singapore one.
Not forget their long long queue ! And is cheap too.
After that i tried the Oyster Omelette but not really my favourite food..
At the end of the day i got some bra set which only cost less than SGD$10 for each set !
And got a pair of covered shoes which cost around SGD$5 plus a shorts which cost about SGD$10 - $15. Lastly a bag which cost about SGD$10.
Then my dear got his converse shoe which also cheaper than Singapore.
We didn't shop for very long as both of us is really tired.
It was a long day too ! So we cabbed back to the hotel around 10pm...
While resting in the hotel, suddenly got people press the bell.
And saw Kensuke and his girlfriend. They just reached Taipei on that day and before we went we already realize that we are staying in the same hotel. Another coincidence when Taipei XiMenDing have so many hotel.
Chit-chatted and passed them my guide book... Envy them staying around 7days and i have to go back the next day... I still have school ! :(
Stay tune for my last day of Taipei ! Something good to introduce to Hello Kitty lover !
