It still memorable when I look back all the photo I took during my Taiwan trip,

Continue with my previous post about 

>>> Night Market Food in Taiwan <<<< (click in if you're interested) 

Beside the Night Market, you can find many other delicious food in Taiwan. 

I would say Taiwan is really a food heaven. Haha!!!! I really want to go to Taiwan again. 

Ok, Let's introduce some significant foods in Taiwan that you must try if you go Taiwan.  

=======================================

I come out with a list of 10 foods I tried during my trip to Taiwan.

1. Ah Chung Mee Sua (阿宗面线)-- Ximending (西門町) , Taipei

For sure, you shouldn't miss this food if you come to Taiwan. 

Basically  it's a vermicelli soup with some small oysters. 

The soup is thick due to the vermicelli, and it's always served hot. 

The interesting thing about this dish is that in their store, they don't put any table. 

People just buy it and eat immediately, standing in front of store. 

Therefore, you will always see people surrounding nearby the store, taking a small bowl and eat their mee sua.  

2. Ah Gei--- Tamshui.  

Tamshui (淡水 ) is smaller city to the north of Taipei city, about 40 mins ride from Taipei central. This stall is said serving the most authentic Ah Gei in Tamshui. 

To be honost, I don't really know what is Ah Gei before the food come to me. If you have the chance to visit this stall, you will see almost all customers will order Ah Gei once they step into the shop. Ah Gei is a piece of deep fried tofu with ingredient inside such as bean tread noodles, cover with some fish paste. It can also served with a spicy sauce beside the common sweet sauce. 

Taste, Hmm, not bad. Personally I feel very unique about this food, and how the bean tread noodles put inside fish paste. 

3. Brown Sugar Milk Bubble Tea- Nearby National Taiwan University(NTU). 

Bubble tea is commonly known as a must-try drink once you come to Taiwan. 

There are many type of bubble tea served. I tried a lot of bubble tea in either night market or branded stall in Taiwan. 

The quality of this stall bubble tea is definitely good, as you can see the popularity from the long queue. 

The price of the bubble tea is cheap too, just NTD30.   

Brown sugar is added into milk bubble tea, which I think is the key factor that made their bubble tea so popular. The sweetness of bubble tea is just in the right portion. 

If your Taiwan trip including the visit of the top No.1 university in Taiwan- National Taiwan University, don't forget to join the queue and have a nice milk bubble tea in this shop. 

The owner of this bubble tea shop make their bubble tea quite fast, but still you need to wait around 15 mins queue. 

4. Steamboat 

I'm not purposely go to Taichung for a steamboat feast. In fact, due to my exchange programme mainly stay in Taichung, I have tried most of the delicious Taiwan food in Taichung. 

I just wanna try steamboat in Taiwan. It was a pleasant experience... 

5. Chinese Egg Wrap 

A very famous Taiwanese breakfast, which you find almost anywhere in Taiwan. 

There are variety choice for ingredients & sauce inside the egg wrap. It's just a perfect portion for breakfast suitable for most of the Chinese people. 

Not forgetting the little cupcakes that served as refreshment on the day of event. Yummy~~

Guess who I met in the event ?? It's my honour to meet Miss World Malaysia 2013, Ms Melinder Kaur Bhullar. She is really gorgeous!!! 

Wacoal Store in Empire Shopping Gallery was officiated by the Executive Director of Wacoal Malaysia, Mr Takashi Watanabe; Wacoal Malaysia’s Business Partner, Ms May Chan ; Director/General Manager, Mr Vincent Leong; Miss World Malaysia 2013, Ms Melinder Kaur Bhullar; and the Centre Manager of Empire Shopping Gallery, Ms Elena Lee.  Besides that,the 20 finalists of Miss World Malaysia 2014 had their 1st appearance to public in Wacoal store Opening  event.  

Last but not least, my polaroid photo on the event day. Thanks you, photographer!!   

So, while my name is being called, go up to stage, receive certificate, 

shake hand with 4 respectful men, and give a very short speech of appreciation.

I was nervous, even more nervous than the defense ( I don't know what I'm talking about during speech, LOL~~)

Time flies~~~~That  the end of my 2 years journey in Europe. It's challenging and amazing.

It's definitely a memorable experience in my life.

I never thought that I will continue my study until Master degree.

It might not the best master programme in the world, 

but I never regret the decision that I made, because the person I met are the best.

It's really awesome and memorable. 

I will divide into several posts to introduce the beauty of Normandy.

First, I would like to recommend this place- Étretat

It located at north-western of  France, about 3 hours drive from Paris. 

Étretat is best known for its cliffs, including three natural arches and the pointed "needle". 

Besides that, Étretat is also a place for people to enjoy the sea, beach and sun. 

The scene is awesome, breathtaking ~~~

Étretat, a place that worth to pay a visit, especially during summer!!

Rocky beach in Étretat....
