Shu Hui's Birthday Part II

In celebration of Shu Hui's birthday, the three of us decided to have a girl's day out...




First stop... the Taipei Zoo!

The Zoo is about a 10 mins bus ride away from our school. Really near huh... not to mention the enterance fee costs NT30 (S$1.50) cheap as compared to the Singapore Zoo.

As it was a weekend, the place was flooded with parents with their kids. The kids are super kawaii. :) In fact I felt the kids were a greater attraction as compared to the animals. Maybe coz it was really hot that day, the animals were all hiding in the shade. So it was a test of our eyesight as we scanned the enclosures for them. Most of the time our efforts were futile. :(
One of the better shots we could take was an the Insectorium. People were allowed to mingle in the enclosure freely amongst the fluttering butterflies. The butterflies seemed to have acustomed themselves to the snapping of cameras, posing long enough for us to capture their on camera.


The Year of the Rat

Bear hug


我也要感谢长荣载我来台湾!



Wall of Poo
What really amused me was the wall of poo situated none other than outside the loo.

Poo comes in all sizes.


Don't you think this is a rather well-taken shot.
ll thanks to our little photograher featured below... 谢咯弟弟!
That concludes our Zoo Trip.
O well we can always visit the animals another day when they're not so sleepy.

The McDonald's where My MVP Valentine was shot.


火辣辣的SHE!!

Our dinner reservation wasn't until 740pm, so we went in search of food to pacify our rumbling tummie. We chanced upon a Croissan Chain Store offering various flavours of the pastry. It's called 牛角面包in chinese literally translated as Cow's Horn. It's pretty obvious why it's called so right.



I chose the original flavored one. Yum yum yum.. I'll be back for more. Too bad it's situated in such an ulu spot.

The highlight of the day for foodies like us was the restaurant 学姐recommended 古拉爵. I just have this to say.... おいいし。 ありがと学姐.

If you ever have the chance to come to Taipei, I recommend you try the food at this Italian restaurant. Great ambience, great food at an affordable price.




Guess where this photo was taken. The toilet! I'm not kidding. At first when I went in I was like WOAH. The walls were lined with red curtains and the toilet bowls are equipped with seat warmers with temperature setting. Such extravagence!

Decor is one thing, but food is always the main thing when it comes to an eating place. And we were not disappointed.... FEAST YOUR EYES!

Our appetizers.

Cream of Mushroom Soup

Stewed Rice with Chicken and Cheese

Strawberry Yoghurt Drink

Before we even dug into the main course we were already discussing when would be the next occassion we can come here to celebrate. 90th day in Taipei..haha just an excuse.

We ended off the day visiting 师大夜市's stationery shops, one of our fav hangouts. We love stationery. It's where you can cheap and pretty stationery.

谢谢你们俩位哦。。我今天玩得很开心。生日快乐淑慧!
