Taiwan Nature Tour & Scenic Drive - Day 1

Shilin Night Market, Taipei - famous fried chicken

Alright, this should be my last trip of Y2007 - Taiwan. Kind of last minute planned (normally my flight ticket booked btw 6mths to 1 year, this is <3mths).After check-in to Huai Ning hotel , we're left with "pasar malam" to visit only. Where else if not the famous tourist spot Shilin Market?

We tried food & drink:-

-fried chicken chop (see pic) , the outside is quite crunchy :)

- big intestines wrap small intestines (大肠包小肠）, don't worry it's taiwanese sausage wrapped in Glutinous rice also in the shape of sausage , very filling. Wasabi flavour is nice.

-frog lay egg (青蛙下蛋）, it's a drink like malaysian teh tarik with little herbal jelly balls

-The yellow tower (黄色巨塔) , barbeque potato, taste like potato chips

-Love jade ice (爱玉冰), a yellowish herbal jelly drink, the taste's pretty plain

-Fried oyster, not nice.....

Went to bed at 2am... tomorrow we'll start to drive around Taiwan. Taiwan is left hand drive, heard the traffic is bad in taipei town.... well.. have to struggle our way out of Taipei liao.......
