Taiwan Eats: 八月堂 Hazukido

Posted on August 1, 2019 by JLiu

I don’t usually eat sweets or bread. I don’t really care for bread for that matter. Usually it’s easy for me to take a bite and say “bye bye” real fast since it doesn’t do well for my weight anyway. … Continue reading →

阜杭豆漿 – Fuhang Soy Milk

Posted on July 8, 2018 by JLiu

Stars: 3/5 去了，點了，吃了。難忘的：沒有。有點失望其實。早餐不錯可是要我再排一次，就算了。說真的，上次介紹的家蓁早餐店 – Jia Zhen Breakfast Place 比這家好吃好多好多好多倍！！ 還有失望的是樓上竟然沒有冷氣，位子要用搶的。大家搶位子為了吃厚燒餅。到後來覺得 “還好” 而已。反而覺得他們的飯糰很好吃。豆漿也還可以。我們今天排了大概15分鐘而已。星期天早上9：30。大家可以試試看可是我真的吃過更好的。下次再介紹另外一家我喜歡的。 So I went to the famous Fuhang Soy Milk breakfast place where people have to line up for sometimes up to an hour to get in. I have no … Continue reading →

家蓁早餐店 – Jia Zhen Breakfast Place

Posted on July 1, 2018 by JLiu

4/5 Stars 106台北市大安區大安路一段27號 住在大安區忠孝東路旁真的很方便，一下樓就是一堆吃的。 鄰居介紹這家早餐店。6點開始營業。對於調時差的我很適合。帶了老大去樓下走走就來到了這裡。買了4人早餐回家才 NT260. 雞肉抓餅 實在好吃。雞肉是老闆自己醃的。 辣椒醬一級棒，超辣，超香。唯一不好的就是沒有地方坐。住這裡附近的人都來這家。到了6:30am 就排隊的。看到上班族還是有幾位空姐。不愛吃的老大拿了饅頭一直啃得津津有味～ Food was pretty amazing here. We ordered about five items (sorry some were eaten before I could take a picture – ha!). Each item was only about a dollar or … Continue reading →
