LOL..
Preparing to go to the airport

We are the travellers!

Outside the plane


I think SR is trying to hint tat the air is a little dry & cold~

We reached there at about 5+pm.. as they've early sunset.. their sky of 5+pm is like our 8+pm..

Can you believe it? We saw an uncle wearing our St Marg's jacket!




Xmas seasons is round the corner!

At their mini arcade.. they have lots of this over there.. did i tell you da won one of the bear! Pics of the victorious moment will be shown at the later stage~~ keep posted!

i lost it again :<

This dog is the star of the cafe~~

He's very obedient.. he did not bark etc. he just stood there without any emotions.. think he's used to pple touching him.. haha


We stayed at Rainbow Hotel.. at the heart of Ximending..

I'm just amused at the packaging of the toothpaste.. ha
Food Food Food~~Their common soup- some thick gravy broth with cuttlefish~

臭 toufu.. i wanted to try but im just not brave enuff.. ha

'车轮饼 ' it means Wheel pancake.. it's just like our round pancake sold at Mr Bean.. just that their fillings are v.generous.. fillings are overflowing!

'可麗餅- Savoury Crepes.. i noe they have this in S'pore too.. but theirs are so much cheaper.. and they're definitely not stingy with their ingredients~

Da and my fav.. it's '眾合口味' where all you add all the ingredients.. we've chic, ham, corn, cabbage, cheese etc'

Bubble tea is a must try over there.. it just taste so much better.. cn you believe it.. there's also hot bubble tea to cater to the cold weather over there..we tried it and surprisingly.. it taste not bad too.. esp in cold weathers~~爽!

My Fave of the fav... their 面線!! they had it in small and large size..even tho it's cooked over long hrs..but the vermicelli is still v.chewy..in delicious sauce & with generous servings of the intestines.. (i dun normally eat internal organs but theirs has no foul smell) thumbs up! and it taste esp good in cold weather~~



The most frequent bubble tea store by us.. cos it's just directly below our hotel.. ha..lazy to walk too far..

That's all for Day 1~~time to tune in for the night!
