i was on a short Taipei trip last weekend with my family. Went to a few places but i didn't take much photos.
We were at Yang Ming Shan, it was the wrong timing to be there coz most of the cherry blossoms have already withered. i thought i managed to see one....
Are they cherry blossoms? Seriously i can't really recognize them especially there were other flowers around which look similar.
There were a lot of azaleas.... i thought they were quite pretty too :P
Well, i never failed to bring a doll with me whenever i go traveling XD
Those red bokeh in the pics were all azaleas :) i saw some cherry blossom trees along the roadside at Dan Shui area, i think it would look really beautiful when they first bloom. Hopefully next time i can go to Taiwan at the 'right' timing :P
Yup, we went to Mr. J, that is the restaurant of Jay Chou. i don't consider myself as a fan of Jay but i do love his songs and recently i'm slowly starting to 'admire' him, lol. So, am i a fan? XD
i was curious, that was why i decided to go there. They serve french-italian food. i was very surprised that the food actually tasted good!
This is the Grilled Baby Back Ribs. i dunno how to describe but it's nice !
John Dory Fish. It's the pan fried John Dory with garlic hazelnut served with seafood sauce. If you love creamy stuff, you'll love it :)
This one doesn't look too appetizing, huh? But i tell you, it was actually really nice, i love that they added basil in it :) i forgot the name of this dish, i think it was Basil Duck Pasta or something.
As you can see, everywhere in the restaurant are faces of Jay and they play Jay's songs as well. So, if you hate him, better don't go there, lol. But the food was really nice !!
This is the French milk tea, it was quite different from the typical Taiwanese one. It was less sweet but i think it's still nice !
i might want to go there again if i have the chance, or maybe i would like to go to Jay's other restaurants since he has another 2 :P
As usual, i would buy some 'useless' stuff whenever i go on a trip XD
But this time was not bad, coz i didn't buy a lot, haha...
i have been playing Snoopy's Street Fair game on my iPhone recently so i am a little crazy over those peanuts characters XD i thought i rarely see Snoopy's stickers around so i decided to get it since it looks cute too ! And that diary, well, i have the habit of taking notes down on certain important stuff so usually i use this type of diary. i was using a Rilakkuma one for 2011. i didn't really plan to get one in Taiwan coz i wanted to get one in SG but they were having sales on this item there so i decided to get one :P
Frankly speaking, i think i am not the type of person who would spend money on handphone accessories but i changed after i got an iPhone, lol. Well, i already got a cover for my phone but i bought another one when i was at Taipei! This Sanrio one tempted me so badly, i thought it looks cuter than any other similar ones which i have seen in SG! That slipper thingy is like a screen cleaner, it's really cute! And lastly, the Popobe bear headphone jack plug!
