Taiwan Travel: Inside Lin An Tai Ancestral House and Museum, Taipei

After we finally made our way inside the house, we were actually amazed at how big the house is. The miniature will give you the idea.

The dining room? I guess.

The kitchen.

This corner of the yard kinda reminded me of my old grandma's house. Hahaha.

There is a pond inside the house complex. Oh my goodness.

And a small pagoda to enjoy the pond view just like those in old Chinese drama. Awesome, eh? =)

The nearest MRT station to Lin An Tai Ancestral House and Museum is Yuanshan MRT. You can follow the map which is provided at the MRT station. That's what we do without the internet connection there. Hehehe.

One thing about summer in Taipei is...there is no guarantee that it's not gonna be raining. =S

And it's worse because it was totally downpour when we were visiting Lin An Tai Ancestral House and Museum near Yuanshan MRT. Oh man.

From the opposite road, we could see that some people are taking shelter and soon, we are totally going to join them (re: taking shelter). XD

Since there's literally nothing to do while waiting for the heavy rain to subside, I spent time by taking pictures of the inside yard. Which is quite romantic in the midst of the rain.

It is still quite a distance from the gate to the main museum and house complex. At this point we were kinda contemplating of whether to run through the rain or just wait for a little wait longer.

At the end, we decided to run through the rain as fast as we could and guess what we saw inside the main building. A group of students taking shelter. Hahaha.

Curious on what is inside the house? Stay tune for the next post! Hehehe.

Taipei Eats: Mr J French-Italian Restaurant: The Food

What else to discuss after we talked about the atmosphere and the direction to the restaurant? Of course THE FOOD! Yum!

The restaurant serves lunch set which comes with bread, daily soup, salad, dessert (cake) and beverages. No worry if you can't read Chinese because as you can see, it has English translation! Yeay!

The set comes with a small slice of chocolate cake. <3

In general, the food taste okay. I suppose this is the kind of place where you spend your money more for the atmosphere instead of the food. If you are a fan of Jay Chou then you will feel that it's worth your money. =P
