Mummy's taiwanese friend (姿芬)was free to bring us around. We met up at 中孝复兴 station, where there is a HUGE SOGO shopping mall (Singapore no more SOGO leh), and had lunch there. We had their 甜不辣 but I don't find it very yummy too..soso only.
Then, we went to wait for their feeder aircon bus, which took about 1 and a half hours to bring us up to 九份. The scenery up there is really nice and that place is super crowded too. Not much things to buy there but everyone is just walking and walking up the hill of shops. It was so tiring after walking up and down.
We did buy some souvenirs and food back in the end though.
We had their famous 芋圆 (yam balls) BUT I also didnt like the yam balls! I finished the ice and the other ingredients except for the yam balls, which I pushed to my mum and her friend to help me finish off in the end..haha!
When we left and went back to SOGO for dinner, it was already about 6 plus.
I didn't know to eat and just anyhow bought the korean hot pot. After ordering, the stall keeper passed me a weird device to bring back to my seat while waiting. It would actually vibrate when my order was ready. When it did vibrate, there were lights blinking on the device also, and I thought I was to answer it like a walkie talkie haha! So dumb!
姿芬 bought 小龙包 from 鼎泰丰 and also bought the 肉丸, which I couldn't even finish one mouth of it! To me...I super cannot take the smell and taste, almost wanna vomit but because it was bought by my mum's friend and it is her favourite, I forced myself to swallow it with my fruit juice~~ and same thing, I passed to my mum in the end..poor mummy~~ :P
When I almost finished my food, I saw a stall selling singapore chicken rice! Urggh..why didn't I see it earlier on!?
After dinner, 姿芬 brought us to 五分铺 and there were sooo many clothes and bags and stuffs to buy there! Obviously we didn't finish shopping the whole place but we already bought a few things within a few hours before going back to the motel to rest for the day again.
P.S: Third day not much to write..hee lucky...if not I will blog until very tired.
I will not post all the photos but selection of those...really too much!
Stay tune for Part 4 -->
