DAY 1: 士林夜市(shi ling night street)

Half year ago, I booked tickets of 2 to Taiwan, the place I dreamed for ages to go. We bought the seats separately from the day we bought the tickets and it cost us at a total of RM650. Well, of course we were using Airasia airline. But the thing that worry me on the very departure day was ‘will the fight delay again’ cause it’s really common to learn that airasia flight always delay. Luckily, God bless us. We went on board smoothly. Flight no. D72672 Depart from LCC Terminal 10 Jun 2010 (Thursday) at 10am (malaysia time) and arrived in Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport at 2.00pm(Taiwan Time).

We did pretty research before we went there. During the flight, it’s just like what we expected. Due to the poor weather, the plane shuttered a lot during the last quarter of flight. I really don’t like it. Moreover airasia had made an empty promise, it’s not an XSEATS flight!!!!! A great LIARRRRR!!  @$%$%@%$#@ It seemed like million hours sitting in that plane though it took 4.5 hours to reach.Take it easy~ see the ppl behind me? Eager VS relax. We choosed to relax!

feel fresh and excited!When we reached taipei train station, we re still very fresh and strange with this place. Since it’s our 1st time to taiwan, so we decided to take a cab to our 1st night hotel.

But this taxi driver was really weird and awkward. SHe was feeding her pet, a CROW in the car! Just imagine a bird when off from its cage, what ll happen… and it’s what we saw in the cab! Very smelly, tahi and bulu everywhere… didnt she know that it was not just about unhygienic, but also ruin her own people’s image??!!

Well, life is full of excitement and it’s colourful!!! Agree? Hihi….

So, evening, we decided to go to the famous place…. PASAR MALAM!!! But there are so many pasar malam just in Taipei. So we decided to go to the most famous one —-林夜市(shi ling night street).

Fantastic! must try! but it’s too big for a person, even for 2. The outer crispy layer of flour really great, but after you finish quarter of it, you will start to feel it’s too meaty. We didn’t finish the whole chicken as need to reserve some space for other delicacies. This ‘smelly taufu’ really bad. Not nice at all, I guess I went to the wrong shop. Thought that all the outlets there must be having equal standard since they are allocated at the prominent place. But it proved that I am wrong. In the end i just ate one piece. The rest threw into rubbish bin. What a waste! Then we went back to our ‘Many flowers business Hotel’. There you can find lot’s of funny name hotels.

Our initial plan:

大概下午2.40PM抵达 桃园飞机场 – 统联客运 – 台北车站 – 酒店

晚上逛士林夜市 +成品书局

交通: MRT to Jiantan Station (劍潭站)

Food: the original XXL Fried Chicken (豪大大鸡排), BIG Sausage(大香肠), Big hotdog wrap small hotdog (大肠包小肠), Ai Yu Bing (爱玉冰) and Ah Zhong Mi Sua (阿宗面线)
