Last post on Taipei trip. All photos were taken on Day 6, it's also Christmas eve.
Started the day at zhongxiao area again (ended there also =x)!
Visited taiwan host, Xiao S's husband's bakery. Thought it was popular because of Xiao S's popularity but I was totally wrong! The breads are seriously delicious and they're sold out pretty fast. You can actually order all types of bread using the order form provided. Not only that, they also post a schedule telling you at what time certain types of breads will be ready! Can imagine how popular and fast selling the breads are now?
Shopping at SOGO, thought the cute clothes are for kids, only realised they are for pets when I had a closer look.
I am not really a pet lover but imagining a poodle dresses up as Winnie the Pooh makes me smile =)
Can't remember what we had for lunch but we went for tea break while waiting for Christmas eve dinner.. How not to be fat?? **extremely guilty now..
Reading some arty farty Japanese magazines provided in the cafe..
Baffi, an Italian restaurant where we had our Christmas eve dinner. It's just opposite Love Lovely. There's quite a few nice eating places (at least nice exretior design =x) around that area, so do explore if you can't make up your mind on what to eat; you might discover some unexpectedly nice restaurants =)
Warning:: The food serving is HUGE!
We ordered creamy soup for one but it is definitely enough for 4! Yes, it's a POT of creamy soup =S
Crispy looooooooong bread stick, served with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We never try this dip before, it's quite interesting. I heard it's usually served in quality Italian restaurants, I must be very suaku ='( Can any knowledgeable, kind soul enlighten me why the dip is used?
Truffled potato wedges served with tartar sauce alike. What's special is not only do they use truffle oil, they also use real truffle. Simply yummy!
I can't remember the name of this dish =x Not sure is penne zita or pennoni as it's much much bigger than normal penne. It's served with tomato sauce and chicken if not wrong =xx
The portion doesn't look large in the picture but the plate is at least 12 inch wide! Yes, like your foot-long Subway sandwich..@@
Conchiglioni (shell pasta) in creamy sauce with salmon. The pasta here are all HUGE, around 2" each!! Unlike those shell pasta (conchigliette) that we usually see in Singapore, conchiglioni is big enough to stuff some meat inside (like Chinese dumpling?)!
Roasted whole spring chicken. Maybe because of the carbohydrate in all the pasta, we like this dish the most.
The herbs stuffed inside the chicken help to add flavor from the inside.
And we ended the dinner with TIRAMISU! It's 1 serving that we ordered BUT the size is around 6"x 6". And it's really moist and rich with alcohol!! I SWEAR IT'S OMG-DELICIOUS! I should have skipped the main dish and had this straight away! Just think of it make me salivate =x
End the post with the pictures I took in the restaurant's ladies.. hehe.. The design is simply elegant!
And they provide Aesop!And cotton pad! And dry cotton bud! And wet cotton bud! How can they be so thoughtful??
And this is what I saw on the cubicle wall! No one saw me looking at this poster but I could feel my face reddened.. hehe...But think of it, the guy is quite handsome and well-built, right?? =P
