Photo-blogging: Taiwan 2016 Day 1 to 3

Finally posting on my Taiwan trip which happened like 6 months ago HAHAHA!
Late post cos I don't even know what I am busy with! Gonna be another photoblogging post as I'm too lazy to go into the details details ya know.

Day 1:Arrived at Taiwan super early as we took a midnight flight the day before. Never ever taking a midnight flight again cos its so so so tiring! And so miserable when you're tired but just can't fall asleep!

First picture of taiwan! At one of the highway from the airport on the way to our hotel! Super pretty sky as seen but can't remember why the blur photo! Probably due to the high speed of the taxi haha


Then we went to Taipei 101! Was so early that they haven opened yet so were hang around for awhile. Above photo is taken at 101th floor!

Then this is the huge ball thats stabilising the building. Oh, its called a tuned mass damper that offsets movement of the building caused by strong gusts. It really huge!!

After Taipei 101, we went for Din Tai Fung! We were early so it wasn't even open yet but there's already a queue outside. Quickly joined the queue so we got our seats pretty fast after it opened.

Xiao Long Bao is must have! In my opinion, the XLB in Singapore and in Taiwan tastes almost the same

This is like some gyoza and its super nice!! Not available in SG so must try!

What we ordered! The veggie which is the gao li cai in TW is nice!!!

After that, we went in the hunt for the Dazzling cafe! Waffle was nice!

Toast was nice as well but the cafe have weird rules where everybody who enters must order at least a drink.

Dinner was all the food snack from Ximending! I think we went a little crazy that night, really bought so much food!!

Cheese potato must try!! They are really really generous with the potato

Beef which is just so-so cos the meat is quite hard actually!

Ah Zhong Mian Xian must try!!

Day 2: 
Bubble Tea 50 Feng! They offer less ice option which is really good!

Also had yummy ice cream at the Ximending underground shopping area

Not much photos for day 2 as it was a pretty chill day, we had lunch at ximending then headed to ChiaTe bakery to for pineapple tarts and other pastry! Then went to Rao He Night market for dinner then back to hotel to rest!

Day 3: Taichung
Egg tarts bought from ChiaTe for breakfast! Super yummy!! We took train to DaHu for strawberry picking first!

Scenery on the way to DaHu!


Strawberry picking is sooooo fun! Should really try it once in your life! And their strawberry is really sweet and fresh

Strawberry corndog which I honestly think there's no strawberry flavour HAHA! They label everything strawberry at the strawberry village

This was at the train station where waiting for our train to Taichung

While waiting, we had lunch boxes from 7-11 which was sooooo good! Like the best one we tasted on our whole trip

Where to find lunch boxes like that!! 

This is one of the biggest strawberry my brother picked!

Freshly picked strawberry!

On the train to Taicung, train has lots of leg space which is good!

Had dinner at Feng Chia night market! Not much pictures of food cos was super hungry after the train ride!!
