Hualien Eats: Grilled BBQ Skewers at Zhiqiang Night Market Image
After eating the coffin bread, we are of course still HUNGRY. Hahaha. So we went to the next stall with the long queue and it's apparently selling grilled food on sticks. Any food. The stall is called 第一家烤肉串 (Dì yī jiā kǎoròu chuàn). How to order? Well, basically grab the plastic basket and...yes, I know, I was not kidding

When the night fell, it's time for us to visit night market. There are two night markets in Hualien but we decided to go to the bigger one, Zhiqiang Night Market (自强夜市/ Zìqiáng yèshì). Since the night market is not really within walking distance from our hotel, Classic City Resort, we took a cab to the night market. When

This is actually a throwback post which old pictures I just found on my phone. Hahaha. Last time, I went to visit Hualien with my happy-three-friends. Since we were going to explore the city, we spent two nights at Classic City Resort (courtesy of my friend who managed to find a good deal from Tripadvisor here). We booked this

Do you ever feel like you just wanna be alone and enjoy your own company? Okay, I feel that most of the time of my life. I wonder if my anti-social level has increased year by year. Is this bad? Oh well, I suppose as long as I am enjoying this trait of mine, I should not be

今天我真的很丟臉. 我真希望時光機器的存在. 但是五月天的歌說 "如果後悔不能後退, 是不是就只能往前?". Sigh. 我沒有辦法, 一定要往前走. 反正, 我丢脸的时候, 没有那么多人看到我了. Phew. Can they have amnesia? Please? Hahaha should I try to hit their head? #criminalminds Haha okay, enough ranting about myself. If you can't read my scribble above..let's just say that I had a quite embarrassing moment today which I wish never happen. Up to the point I want to hit the head of

After hearing about yummy cookies shop at Gongguan from a friend who was studying at National Taiwan University (NTU), I (like usual) crave for cookies. How to get slim???

I love mango season in Taiwan (which is usually in summer). Why? Because Taiwanese mangoes are really delicious. 非常好吃!! (Fēicháng hào chī!) Another thing, don't they look bigger than usual mangoes? If you don't feel like cutting the fruit itself, good news for you, you can find a lot of mangoes product all over Taiwan. Like mango ice cream

We are back to Shifen! Simply because it's such a waste to spend a summer day doing nothing at home (although I am a huge fan of taking a nap). =P So yeah, Shifen, 我回来了! (Wǒ huíláile/ I am back!) We are going to see the waterfall because my friend has not seen it before. Along the way

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.

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

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 salad. The soup
