After the last post where we leave Yangmingshan hotspring, we are now going into Taipei, Shilin night market. By the time we reached the place, it was about 730pm, and we only got until 930pm to eat and shop. Thats the bad thing about following tours ) :

Shilin ???? is divided into two areas, one where all the foodie gathers, some sort of our Singapore Hawker centre where there are a lot of stalls selling different type of food. And the other area across the street is the ?? night market area, where there are a lot of shops and stalls selling all sort of stuff. Clothes, shoes, u name it they have it.

Taiwan ?? are actually similar in nature, with the food they sell being mostly identical, and the clothes, stuff they sell also fairly similar. From what i observe, ladyironchef can classify the top 3 most popular into the following (according to personal opinion)

Top 3 Most Popular ??

1. ??

2. ????? 

3. ???

Chicken cutlets ?? can be seen anywhere, and is one of the most popular  ?? in Taiwan, in Singapore, made famous by the ??????. But then actually its not just ?????? that are nice, there are a lot stores all selling very nice one

?????  as the name implies, big sausage with a small sausage inside. As i never had it before, on first thought i really believe it was a big sausage with small sausage, but boy was i wrong. The “big sausage” is actually made of glutinous rice, with a ???? inside it. This post does not have a close up picture of it, watch out for the coming post for the picture.

??? i believe is also known for one of the most famous ?? in Taiwan. The ??? which they had is different from what we had in Singapore & Malaysia, they had a extra sweet sauce on the ???, which many of Singaporeans may find it weird, but personally i found it to be quite nice.

Top 3 Most Common ??

1. ??

2. ???

3. ??

This three type i think are some of the most common ?? in Taiwan, many diff stalls selling the same item. Anyway, lets get on to the nice food we ate at Shilin.

After eating, we hurried to the night market across the street and start shopping. Too many things to buy, and too many people around. Hahaha! No time to take photos, so this is the only photo showing the street. Not too bad, my rewards are a black vest, t-shirt, and cap. More to come, more to come. Tomorrow, the next post we shall go to ?????? Fishermans Wharf & old street. After which we will go to the star hotel of the trip, Grand Hyatt!! And also some night shopping. See ya!
