Day 10
The rest went to watch a movie in the morning so ying and i had breakfast on our own. It's quite funny how my friends (& their friends) asked us whether all 6 of us were really traveling together because 80% of the time my snapchat + video only have ying and me inside hahaha. But no guys, we went in a group of 6. Just that sometimes we wanted to do different things hahaha.

Lol this girl wore her beanie every single day. Even on days that were not cold.
The weather was so fine that day hehe. The sun was out but the temperature was at a very comfortable level of 23°C. I decided to wear a stick-on bra that day because i lazy wear a strapless bra and it stuck on super well hahahaha because i didn't even perspire. How awesome. I miss the weather...
When we were chilling in our apartment last night, i decided that we needed to eat beef noodles because we haven't had it so i googled some kickass beef noodles and found one near our apartment! Ok, it wasn't super near - around 20min walk or so. But i like some walking in a foreign place so we went ahead with it. And boy, was i glad to have found this place. THIS BEEF NOODLES IS THE BOMB.
If you stay near ximending, do yourself a huge favour and eat the beef noodles at 桃源街牛肉面. It wasn't cheap. One bowl was NT220 (SGD$10) but it was really good. I know it's expensive but they weren't stingy with the beef (look at the huge chunks of beef) and it was a big bowl. Both of us were already full halfway through the meal but we still polished the whole bowl because it was too good. The beef was so soft, tender and flavourful. It had a melt-in-your-mouth kinda texture. The broth was delicious. You can also add salted vegetables into your bowl and trust me, it was so tasty with or without the salted vegetable.
Oh, and you definitely have to queue for this. The queue may seem a little intimidating but it moved rather quickly so we got a table within 15 to 20mins. You can watch my video to check out the queue.
After that, we met up with the rest at Tamsui aka 淡水.
Headed to beitou aka 北投 for hot spring again. This time we booked a private room at Marshal Zen Garden 少帥禪園. It was only NT1200 for a couple for an hour. So that was only about SGD$27 per pax.
It was time to hit the club again~~~ Since it was our last night here, Daph and Javier joined us. We wanted to go back to Lava initially but changed our mind since Babe18 was nearby so why not try it. And i hereby declare, i do not like Babe18. It was soooooo crowded and the queuing system for the drinks kinda sucked.
LOL cui photo but this is the only pic i have of us in Babe18
Daph and javier even left halfway cos they buay tahan hahaha. We stayed slightly longer cos last night in TW already but it was kinda boring lah.
Day 11
The rest had a morning flight while ying and i were flying back around late afternoon instead so we sort of bided goodbye to them from our bed. The night before, ying suggested waking up early to eat the beef noodles again and i agreed enthusiastically. But when the morning came, i just snoozed my alarms all the way hahaha. We only got up around 11 in the morning and had to rush to shower, prepare and pack our luggage (check out at 12pm).
Had to give the beef noodles a miss cos we were lugging our luggage around so we headed to buy some Chia Te's bakery immediately. I actually spent close to SGD$100 there wtf. I didn't even think so much and just took whatever i wanted to buy for my family and close friends. After paying then i was like wtf did i just spend my money on? Hahahaha but the sun biscuits (太阳饼) and milk biscuits (牛奶酥) were so good so no regrets.
Lunch was at the Japanese Restaurant call Yayoi, just a few shops away from Chia Te. I suggested eating there cos there was a long queue when we walked past it haha #typicalsingaporean.
I've been eating so much over there it's not even funny. My appetite also grew so big omg. A week or two after i came back, i was constantly hungry every 2-3 hours LOL.
Taiwan, you're greatly missed by me. Such a great country with good food at affordable pricing and some of the most polite people i've ever met.
