Day 4 of being a pig in Taiwan

We headed to 九 份 which we will need to take a 1 hour rail ride. The rail ride was an eye opener, it's definitely the older mode of transport. And the surprising thing is, they managed to build rail, train and high speed train all together at the taipei main station. Making the station a big maze.

At 九 份, we had hong zao meat, 古 早 味 草 仔, Fen Yuan in hot grass jelly, BBQ mushrooms, Almond milk,


We joined the super long q and bought the 古 早 味 草 仔. Nothing fantastic about it though...


Fen Yuan in Hot grass jelly was a mistake. The hot grass jelly wasn't sweet and taste yucky..
Next time stick with Fen Yuan in Ice or Red bean soup.


And here's the giant pot of Fen Yuan. 九 份 is famous for this


Tell-Tale time.. Yup.. We were so full and yet Derrick still buy these.. He says it's his samples to test test.. SOooo i leave u all to guess who's more piggy? =P

Next we headed to Songshan to buy the 佳 德 pineapple cakes. It has won awards and very popular with the locals. But it's kinda of out of the way. An interesting note, we realised that if u call pineapple 黄 梨, then u must be from Singapore or Malaysia. Cos every other chinese around the world calls pineapple 凤 梨.

Next stop Raohe Night Market
Over here, we only had beef noodles and the famous black pepper biscuit 胡 椒 饼

Our reward after joining in the q for this... =P
