Hey! What you looking at huh..
After the tour at the zoo, we went for MacDonald for lunch.Pork Burger and some beef burger i forgot its name but it's good!
Walked our way to the MaoKong Cable Car.Zoo is located at the left and Cable Car is located at the right.The distance between both place are near and walkable distance..like 5-10 mins, depends on your speed of walking.
There is this Ticket Vending Machine to purchase the cable car ticket but the easy card can be used for cable car as well, so we just tapped and queued for our turn to board the cable car.We took the normal cable car with no glass flooring (which is popular for it), but the queue was quite long.So we decided to queue for the cable car with glass ceiling when going back to the station.The waiting queue for the normal cable car is quite fast. Within minutes, we are up in the cable car.
YAY! We reached the Maokong Mountain for about 45 minutes. The cable car journey was filled with breathtaking scenery.
Once we stepped out of the station. we saw many food stalls and a food market,but were too full to even eat them.
As we are running out of time based on out itinerary, we didn't walk further to explore the mountain.We went back to the station to queue for the cable car with glass flooring.And lucky us!! There were very little people queueing and less waiting time required.
That's the end of our Cable Car trip
We head back down to CHIATE to buy the pineapple tarts.Hopefully,this time round it's not sold out.
When we reached there, we queued for less than 30 mins to get inthe shop.And finally manage to grab boxes of pineapple tarts back...and a pack of egg tarts.
Address : No. 88, Section 5, Nanjing E Rd, Songshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan 105
The pineapple tarts were sold out. :( So we manage to buy egg tarts and Tai yang bing.
Then we head back to hotel to put our stuff before heading to the new night market.End up kinda regret going there.We walked a distance to reached YouMing st night market.On our journey there, there were nothing to see except for houses and car mechanical repair stores. When we reached ..worst there are lots of motorcycles passing by the food stalls and it was dangerous for tourist who went on foot.And there were simply nothing but food..and motorcycles.We walked a few steps and decided to return for Shilin Night Market instead. Shilin Night Market is the best night market so far as compared the rest of night market..
Back to Shilin to buy more stuff and more gooodddd food..before we head back to sg tml.
We bought this fried ice cream, situated at a corner. And erm..it's just ice cream in between 2 piece of plain bread.Tasted average.
And then we went back to the Shilin Underground mall and bought the same dish and also try other dishes..Like..
Lu Rou Fan
Smelly Tofu
Oyster Omelette
Then we tried the papaya milkshake..it was good cos it's not too milky.But the papaya bits was not blend,thus can taste the chunks of papaya.
Apparently this chicken cutlet stall has quite a queue, therefore we decided to have a go.And this tasted sooo good..the taste of the powder and the crisp of the chicken cutlet.MUST TRY!!!Way better than Hot Star Chicken Cutlet.Sorry..no picture of the Chicken cutlet as it's too good we've finished it up.
After all the eating, we went back hotel to packed our luggage for tml departure.When we returned from hotel, we saw our goodies ,bought from Li Yi, being delivered to our hotel.It was so freaking heavy and many boxes.GG..not too sure how to squeeze in so many things.Stressed!
