Trip to Taiwan May 2011

Hey everyone,

Last week I had a chance to go for a 5-day trip to Taiwan. I went to Taipei, Taichung, Kinmen Tainan and Kaohsiung.

In Taipei, I went to 101 Taipei (the tallest building in the world from 2004-2010) and Sun Yat-sen Memorial (1st President of Taiwan). Getting taxi in Taiwan is so easy and convenient. I also went to the Shilin Market for dinner and went to the night market nearby. Surprisingly, the night market was clean. You can hardly see any trash on the road.

In Taichung, I went to the night market which was located near to Feng Chia University.

In Kinmen, I had a chance to go to the Yeoh Teon Lay Memorial, owner of the YTL Corp. He was originated from Kinmen. I also went for a visit to the Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor factory. Did you know that Kaoliang Liqour contained 58% of alcohol? No, I don't drink in case if you are wondering, it was just a working visit.


I didn't get to visit any interesting place in Tainan because it was a very brief visit.

In Kaohsiung however, I stayed in E-Da World. It's almost like Genting Highland. They have a theme park, shopping mall, hotels and even a university. I also went to the night market at the city centre.

Well, I didn't get to see that much of Taiwan but it was an interesting experience for me. I'm going to go for a holiday with my friends this weekend. Can't wait to go! Wait for the updates ok!

XOXO :P

Kimchi

Hey everyone,

Last weekend my friend and I went for a lunch in Kimchi Korean Restaurant, Tropicana City Mall, Damansara. It was my first time.
You will be given Banchan (side dish) as a complimentary
I ordered Kimchi Ijikeh (chicken and vegetables) with rice. Tastes like tomyam...nyum nyum!
Korean pancake. Delicious!
My favourite drink : Mango Smoothie

You should go and try if you haven't tasted any Korean dish before. I'm planning to go for another Korean restaurant soon for a new experience!

XOXO
