Posted on 09 September 2015 ♥ [19 Aug 2015]Supposed to wake up at 7am to head to Leofoo Village but was so tired that I didn't want to wake up so we went back to sleep and woke up at 10am or so. Missed the hotel breakfast so we went to prepare and head out with a change of plan to head to XMD instead! Took the MRT to Ximen Station (Exit 6) because we are heading to Ximending which the B have been wanting to visit. Decided to have our brunch first before we shop around because we didn't have anything to eat before we reached XMD. Randomly decided to have our brunch at a Ramen store called 佐野拉面 at around 12.30pm!  Prices are really affordable as stated and no extra charges as well! Decided on what we want before we head to the cashier to make payment and collect our drinks then wait for our food to be served! Here's the drinks we got! 
Minute Maid's Apple and Orange Juice in glass bottle at only NT20 (SGD0.92) each!
Food were served pretty fast, 5-10minutes after we placed and paid for our orders!  Zav had the Shoyu Ramen w Cha Shu at NT110 (SGD5.05) while I had the Extra Thick Tonk otsu Ramen w Pork Cutlet at NT120 (SGD5.50). Totally loving my soup base, thick yet don't get sick of drinking it! Pork Cutlet was fine and ramen were pretty good, finished the whole bowl! YUMZ! Fried Prawn Roll at NT50 (SGD2.30), very crispy yet not too oily, tasted very good as well! Zav loves it! Fried Tofu was at NT30 (SGD1.38), well fried without being oily, one of the better fried tofu around! Fried Pork Cutlet at NT50 (SGD2.30), really crispy and goes well with the sauce provided! Overall, it's a damn satisfying meal with it being so affordable yet so yummy! 2 happy tummies! Total bill for the whole meal with 2 Ramens, 3 side dishes and 2 drinks was just NT400 (SGD18.34)!!! Went to walk around Ximending after our meal because we was so damn full!  Managed to find our favourite 'Stage' store after spending around NT2000 (SGD91.70) at one of the random clothing stores but we scored like 9 pieces of clothing from there. Bought our first item each from Stage which was a T-Shirt each and although I'm a kiam siap gui, I totally love the T-Shirt I picked out and it was the last piece at NT1300 (SGD59.60)! Zav got his first T-shirt from Stage at NT1500 (SGD68.78) and we were so elated from it! :D  Decided to get some street food after some shopping and we sat at some random place to eat!  Got a box of Red Bean Muah Chee at NT50 (SGD2.30) and the Ice Cream Roll with Shaved Peanut which I tried on previous trip but hated it! It was NT40 (SGD14.23) for a roll and this was so different, damn damn good!! Requested for it without the 香菜 because both of us don't eat that. Decided to head back to our hotel after that since we was carrying quite some bags of stuffs that we bought! Went back to put down our stuffs and headed out straight because they was making-up our room! Managed to get on the free shuttle bus to Miramar Entertainment Park just at Jiantan station after 10minutes of wait, YAY! Bus ride was approximately 15-20minutes without heavy traffic and we took some wefies and videos via B612 on the short bus ride, well entertained that my phone died when we reached!  It was so hot and sunny when we reached at almost 5pm! Can't even open my eyes when taking the below photo!  It was still very sunny at 5pm so we decided to walk around the mall till probably evening then we take the ferries wheel! Nothing much to buy so we spent some time at the arcade before we went to get tickets for the ferries wheel at around 6pm! It was NT150 (SGD6.88) for each pax per ride, quite affordable I would say! Didn't had to queue for long to board since everyone wanted the transparent one while we are fine with the colored ones.  Phone died after taking just 1 photo of the scenery so it's camera time! More pictures of the scenery since we are so high up! Mostly taken by Zav because I felt scared of the height when I look down below. HAHAHA weak.   And of course, wefies time because it's a approximately 15-20minutes ride! Also the first time where we took the ferries wheel together. YAY!  And more!  Went to look for the bus stop for the shuttle bus back to Jiantan station and the queue was so insane so we had to wait for another 20minutes for another bus but it's okay because we managed to get seats on the 2nd bus! Went straight to Shilin Night Market for our dinner because we were hungry!  Went to 2 different stores at the basement of Shilin Night Market to have 2 different stores' Braised Pork Rice and Fried Oyster! So much Lu Rou Fan in the night market but everyone's was different! So damn full after eating all of the above but we still went for dessert at 阿忠冰店!  We got my favourite which was Mango, Strawberry and Kiwi Shaved Ice! Still tasted as good as before and only half of the bingsoo's price in SG! 150NT (SGD6.90) for such a big portion! Walked a little at the night market before we head back to the hotel with some food which we dabao for us to eat after bathing! Back to the hotel room to bathe and pack our new buys into our luggage at 11pm! Pretty satisfied with our habit of packing a little everyday we are back to the hotel room so we don't have to ganchiong about packing on the last day. Here's our loots for the day!  6 T-shirts for me and 5 for Zav! Also new pouch for Zav which is in our favourite colors, Blue and Pink! Black shoes for my work at NT590 (SGD27.05), Thor Keychain for Zav at NT150 (SGD 6.88), some new makeup/skincare for me and new couple ear studs! Supper was...  Fried Rice Ball, 1 with Lobster Salad and 1 with Honey Mustard! Both were damn shiok!! 玉米烧 which is like very soft rolled omelette with super generous Mentaiko, Cheese and Corn! Damn yummy and the Mentaiko was major shiok! It was only NT65! Also got the Fried Chicken Cutlet with oozing cheese at NT85! All of the above were really good and affordable! I miss Taiwan already!! And that's how our 2nd day in Taiwan went! |
