Taiwan Trip 19th Sept 12 to 26th Sept 12; Day 7: Chiate, Gao Ji >>> Changi Airport

Last day in Taiwan!

Woke up around 8am to buy our pineapple tarts and  sun cookies(?)太陽餅. Car researched online and found that Chiate is the popular in Taipei. So off we went to queue.

Chiate Pineapple Tarts (佳德糕餅有限公司)

So we took Bus no 5502 from Sun Yet Sen Memorial Hall.

When we reached at around 9 plus in the morning, on a weekday, the queue was already long enough! 5 shops away from the main shop! It is that crazy.



Eventually, Car got what she wanted. Cranberry pineapple tarts and the others. I went to buy some Taiwan cookies from the nearby cake shop.

After that, it was time for our lunch.

Gao Ji (高記)

We didn't manage to eat the famous 小籠包 (meat dumplings) from Din Tai Fung as it was out of the way. So Car did her research and found this place. The meat dumplings are cheaper and it tasted just as good according to research by Car. Found the food there to be pretty decent.


Car bought this 紅燒雞! i think..

this is my tom yum noodles or 炸醬麵. spicy enough. i love.

car's tofu noodles

the toilet haha

Think we also saw 小S's 經紀人. They were discussing about her progress and when my eyes shifted to look at hers, she returned my stare. Haha. Why didn't I see any stars during my time there? Hope I can catch some celebrities when I go over in March! :D

We went back to the hotel and packed up and then it was time for the airport.


Finally bought Koi only during the last day! 

Taoyuan Airport

So, we took public transport to the airport! Went to the bus terminal where we took our bus to Yehliu again. You can look at the directions to the bus terminal in this post


Forgot which bus number we took. We took the 國光 bus. Luggage tags are provided and checked against before we remove any luggages from the compartment in the bus at each terminal.



Went to the convenience store in the airport and spent the last of my money on cup noodles!



I eventually forgot to bring home my backpack from Changi Airport hahaha.

End of my Taiwan trip!

This March 2012, I will be going to Hualien and Taipei! More updates soon!

Signing off..
