Day 1: Continued Feasting!



So did I say that we were not feeding ourselves well at RaoHe night market? Enroute to the MRT station, we chanced u[pon this stall that was selling mushroom meat ball soup. If it's food, with a large crowd, and since we came across it, we were game to try it. For NT40, we were given two humongous meat ball. Gorgeous! Once again, anything soupy on a cool evening would just make ones stomach happy!


Reaching the MRT station, we spotted Wellcome, a 24-hour supermarket. For the fear of starvation, we went in to buy fruits for digestion and cup noodles just in case Taiwan runs out of food.

Buying this cup noodles brings me back to the 90s once again. There was a time where I was in Taiwan for my military training and the weather was cold. I remember buying such a cup noodle, hid below a staircase, and had a feast, because the noodles came with a sachet of beef packed in it. Instant noodles with real beef! Oh my goodness!!! I know, people are telling me that it's preserved food. But do you know what it meant to me when you're in a foreign country, cold weather, officers who were always on our backs. Ok, I've digressed.
