Day 2 of Taiwan Trip

We have our trip by hire a driver who fetch us go around the place where hard to reach
The reason we use driver 台中transport is still as convenience as 台北
As the driver ask us to meet him at 9am,
I woke up at 7.30am early in the morning for preparation.
I almost used 1 hours to settle everything and the time i only call Gary to wake up
He just use about 20 minutes to settle down. *sohugedifferent*
After we met the driver, he bring us to have a fast breakfast which is something like burger, bun or bread
The breakfast was quite nice but we forgot to take photo as we are too hungry already
After this, we went to 東東芋圓 first to have our very first dessert in Taiwan.
Taiwan is famous of taro ball. We went there try for hot soup I order 烧仙草 while my friend order 综合豆

Mine was quite nice as I like taro ball, grass jelly and yam.
But Gary said it was like nothing special
We hardly to finish two bowls of hot soup while we should only order one.
After the soup, we went to 薰衣草森林

It is a place where is full of lavender. *talkcraps*
It is quite remote areas. I think public transport unable to went there.
The founder of the Lavender Cottage is 2 young girls at the time they found this but not now.
One of the founder was just passed away no longer before we came there.
Thus, there are a room at there to mourn her .
Overall the place is quite nice. It is cold, nice, beautiful and able to see the view.
But the place will much more suitable for couple or girls compare to 2 boys.

This is the wishing boxes at there
After Lavender Cottage, we went to 新社古堡
It is almost same with Lavender Cottage which a closed area where they build some special things inside
It is about some Euro style buildings with a fountain (I think)

Yet, it is the place for photo shooting only.
For those who never came, can try once.
If came before, I think we have same thinking which is not coming here anymore.
After that, we went to a street which full of mushrooms
As 新社 is the place where suitable for growing mushroom

Thus whole street was planting mushroom and selling it

We went there to try their fried mushroom.
It is so juicy yet delicious.
We did not go 大坑纸箱王 as the driver told us 清境 got a same one which is free
While here need to pay for NTD 100 while the things is almost same.
So after having our fried mushroom
We depart back to 逢甲 to start our night market trip
We start our night market walk around 6pm
Our first food is 章鱼小丸子 and 明轮蛋饼

Dont suspect on what you see, it is only 6pm and the sky is so dark already

章鱼小丸子 is god like nice while the 蛋饼 was a bit too sweet for me.
It is a franchais at Taiwan. Taiwan got a lot small size of franchais which selling food


After that I will introduce some of it.After that we tried 北回木瓜牛奶

After that we tried 月亮虾饼 and  帝鈞胡椒餅

月亮虾饼 is almost the same as what we eat for 卤肉
Just the sauce using is different as here is using Sweet Lemon Sauce
I also tried 帝鈞胡椒餅 but it is not really suit me as it is spicy yet easy to on fire.
After that we bought 黄金鸡腿卷 and also 黄金贼

1st one is about boneless drumstick with different type of seasoning such as pepper, original, spicy and etc
While 黄金贼 is squid filled with meet.
I abondan it for around 1 hour then just eat it.
It is still so nice but already a bit hard to bite edi.
After this we bought 爆浆按摩鸡排

According to the owner, they sell 1000 pieces per day only as a lot procedure to do and prepare such as massage.
After we tried, it is soso for me only as we treat it same with golden squid.
We abondan it quite a long time only eat it.
The last food we bought is 官芝霖大肠包小肠

I used not to eat 腊肠 at here thus I was a bit worried whether do it suit me or not.
After first eat, it is so nice, juicy, tasty.

It gives surprise to me be frankly.
The food that I did not dare to try is 臭豆腐 and 猪血糕. No reason just feel unease. LOL
Besides eating, we shopped a lot as well.
However, we just forgot to capture what we bought throughout the whole trip.
So there are no shopping pictures but food pics and view pics.
