we packed our things and left taiwanmex. our destination is 长虹饭店 at 西门町. we reached 西门町 at around ten am, although not all the shops are opened, but its already crowded with teenagers.
we checked in our hotel, but the standard check-in time is 2 pm, so we left our luggage with the hotel management and went to walk walk.
and behold, the famous 鸭肉扁 shop. this is my first time eating the food here. wanted to try the food during my previous trips, but its always crowded with pple. 难得 the shop so few pple, i immediately pulled darling into the shop. haha.
this meal quite ex. the plate of duck meat (or ghoose meat) cost 10 sing. the bowl of noodles cost 2 sing. although the duck meat very little, it taste very delicious, especially after dipping the meat in their secret sauces. must dip in both the red and black sauce!
we took 捷运 to 市政府站. visited 台北 101, and shopped at 纽约纽约, 威秀影城 and 新光三越. all 4 places are connected with a sky bridge. and the 新光三越 is much bigger than the one at 中山站. cos got 4 buildings, the one at 中山站 only got 2 buildings.
saw this 2 very interesting posters at 威秀影城. definitely must take photo. haha.
its the korean version of brokeback mountain. damn cool rite.
when you go taipei must try their mister donuts. very nice! this outlet is at new york new york. we bought the strawberry flavour and red bean macha flavour.
next, we go to 五分埔. it is a wholesale centre for clothes, which means the clothes there are selling at very cheap prices. must avoid going there on monday and friday, because this 2 days the clothes will be sent to shopping centres in bulk, so the shop attendants will be too busy to attend to you.
we went to a cafe to meet up with darling's xqrj friend, cos he is doing exchange in one of the taipei universities.
(i purposely dun want to put up a picture of him. hahahahaha.)
finally, we go back to 西门町 for a glorious night of food and shopping.
the super popular 阿宗面线. the only shop that has customers standing on the streets of 西门町 eating bowls of mee sua.
this is another popular shop, which sells super nice 碳烤鸡腿, 甜不辣 and 卤味.
we also bought quite a few stuff for ourselves. darling bought a very nice red bag and a pair of earrings. i bought a pair of jeans and a chain watch. and hor, we saw this onitsuka tiger shop! and inside the shop got the very very cute sneakers!!! (http://yytellmewhy.blogspot.com/2008/10/cutest-asics-sneakers-i-have-ever-seen.html)
i was so tempted to buy, but the shop assistant told me only got female size. haiz wat a pity. nvm lah, i get to touch it and hold it in my hand i 爽 already. haha.
staying at a hotel right in the middle of 西门町 is very shiok, cos when we buy too many things, we can go up the hotel put down our things, then continue to shop again.
the last place that we went to is a supermarket. my little sis ask me to buy 当归鸭面 instant noodles, and trust me, they really taste damn nice! next time if any of you go taiwan must buy those back for me ok!
and then darling saw something which really thrilled her to the max.
(behold burger king tidbits! haha.)FINALLY, we go back to our hotel, and spend our last night in taipei.
(stressed because we bought too many things, very difficult to pack)
(happy because darling bought so many things for herself, family and friends)
强烈的对比. haha.
