"Oh this could really be a good life."

A good life for an ordinary girl always involve good food and good companionship. I suppose it is not that difficult to please a girl. And that's why my travel buddy and I were so happy when we visited Gudetama Chef at Zhongxiao Dunhua in Taipei. Last time we had seen Gudetama oozing out from our blueberry pancake. Now, we are going to see more laziness from other food. For instance, this is the chicken cutlet with curry yellow Gudetama rice. The yellow rice is the main item here because otherwise, it will be hard to feature the lazy egg in this dish. The curry is totally not spicy at all. It even tastes a tad sweet to be honest with you. But it was nice nonetheless.

Oh right, by the way, every seat at Gudetama Chef is decorated with Gudetama's pillow. I got the Chef's special pillow on my seat. Remember to take picture with the cute pillow, ok? Super not important, I know.

I nearly forgot about the fancy colourful drink. It came with a very funny straw where you could see Gudetama's butt. The drink tastes sweet like soda-kind-of-sweet and the color looks so nice now. However, once the three colors mix up, the drink will turn to a dark and gloom color, black. We were kinda wondering what on earth did we drink after all. We are still alive until now though so all is well. XD

The last food that we ordered is Gudetama Kimchi Pizza. It is actually kinda gimmicky because the only way to insert Gudetama's concept on the pizza is by adding that round-shape cheese and pit Gudetama's face sticker on it. While the pizza taste good, it was so filling, we ended up with a very "round" tummy after dining here.

Apparently, the rounder and heavier tummy did not stop us from making a quick stop at a pancake shop named Taiko-Manzyuuu while we were wandering around at Zhongshan.

If you are a fan of Mr Bean in Singapore, Taiko-Manzyuuu sells similar pancake but with so many various fillings from taro, red bean, chocolate, peanut, etc.

Some ready-made pancakes are inside the display but we could not tell what kind of flavor are those. We chose Rum Cheese pancake at the end and we were pretty happy with our choice. :)

"It's Friday, I'm in love."

TGIF peeps! It was a light at the end of the tunnel when the clock hits 6PM after gruelling slaving throughout the sunny and rainy day. But after all those hard works, it is finally weekend again! Yeay! Feels like I'm alive again~~~

Continuing on from our visit to Gudetama Chef, my travel buddy and I were finally seated after waiting time of 10 minutes or so because the waitress needed to clear the table and everything. We did not mind the wait though because we were busy checking out the souvenir store and taking pictures. A lot of pictures of Gudetama Chef. Hahaha.

Gudetama Chef is a lazy chef who has to use eggs in all his dishes. He speaks for the joyfulness of Egg World and he is heavily against 100% Egg Free world. Egg for the world! Since I love eating eggs, I probably would not mind this kind of way of life. LOL.

But let's flip and see what kind of food is served in Gudetama Chef. Like many other themed-restaurants in Taipei, Gudetama Chef specialised in fusion Western dishes and it offers a range of salad, pasta, and risotto. You need to order salad which have eggs if you want the salad to be decorated by Gudetama. Otherwise I don't know how Gudetama's gonna appear in the salad bowl. I don't think he wants to appear in something green. After all, this is one attitude egg.

The drinks served at Gudetama Chef are very good-looking. There is soda, pop rocks yogurt and colourful slush. A lot of diners ordered the slush because they want to keep the cute plastic bottle.

After we have placed our order, it is time to take a look at our surroundings. Did I see Gudetama hanging from the ceiling? The lazy eggs are basically everywhere in this dining room. Sleepy sleepy sleepy indeed.

Gudetama also features himself everywhere on our table from the table mat, small plates, normal plates and pepper and salt containers. I spent quite a few minutes to take selfie with all these props. There's no way you are not gonna taking picture when you are at any themed restaurant in Taiwan.

The funny thing is, the first order to arrive on that particular Sunday is the dessert, the Blueberry Pancake (which is served with blueberry ice crea). Gudetama oozing out from the pancake but there's nothing raw about this pancake so you don't have to worry so much about whether it's cooked properly. The Blueberry Pancake tastes so good, I can feel every bit of blueberries inside the pancake. And it was not too sweet. Yummy.
