Taiwan tidbits pt. 3

The 7 eleven stores in Taiwan are like trees in the forest, they sell many stuffs like sandwiches, salads, hot and cold noodles, tea eggs, breads and so on......

Slurpee 

Heineken in J-mart (TaoYuan).

If you have a member's card you can buy the stuffs there at a lower price, the shop is also open to non-members. J-mart is like a mini SM department store. They have many frozen products which you can just pop in the microwave and eat. Adjacent there is Hi-Mart where you can shop for clothes at reasonable prices. 

Heart shaped chips, bought in J-mart.

Strawberry milk tea, it does taste good and you can choose from many flavors and brands.

 
I bought mini waffles at the street, a set of spongebob characters and I only got to take the pic of gary the snail  because my nephews are so excited to eat them all.


Cold coffee bought at 7 eleven, taste even better than starbucks at a way cheaper price.

White tiger at Liu Fu Chun Theme Park


Hot shrimp salad at a Thai restaurant in Taiwan

Halo-halo Thai style (milk, crushed ice, different beans and gelatin) I just topped it with taro ice cream

Napoli at Tai Mall

Juices for 10 to 15 NT each, these are not like the Big250 or Zesto here in the Philippines. The ones in Taiwan comes in many unique flavors and the sizes are big so you really get to enjoy drinking.



The train ride in Liu Fu Chun is an open ride where you will get to see animals being fed. I remember seeing kangaroos, peacocks, hippos, giraffes, ducks, wild goats, sheeps, llamas and I can't recall the names of the other animals there haha.  


This is a 360 degree ride which I didn't try because I'm afraid to get dizzy and not enjoy the other rides there.

This theme park is a must visit in Taiwan. I have really not taken decent pictures here because it was freezing cold at the time for it was December when I went there. 
But still I enjoyed and screamed at the free- fall ride and the other rides too.

Remember Jogoya? Most restaurants in Taiwan have hotpots and grills, I'm not really into hotpots but my companions are. Luckily Jogoya offers much more than hotpots. Here's a sneak peek at the food I ate. Salad, soup, sweet & sour and all sorts of meat like beef, chicken, pork.

The specialty in this restaurant is their snow king crab cooked in a hotpot, sadly the second time we went there it was not available. And the alternative to the crabs was these big shrimps.


Desserts I super like, the yellow one is like a leche flan... cream puff and tiramisu with truffles

Pizza hut has eat all you can, they also offer salads, soups, pastas and desserts


Green pudding with Adzuki beans

Other than meat the pizza's has toppings like cabbages, boiled eggs, squids, sesame seeds......
