Taiwan Trip Dec 6-14 - Day 4 - Hualian Town 蔥油餅/Dinner

Back in town, went to try the famous 炸蛋蔥油餅。 This one tastes a little salty but very fragrant. Delicious - should have ordered more. Mr Looi (the one in long blue shirt with dark blue sleeveless jacket) confirming our orders.

Everything is prepared in this mini pickup.


Yummy 炸蛋蔥油餅

Mr Looi drove us to ZhiQiang Night Market - again the shops are not open yet. He then drove us 2x round the food triangle - 中華路, 中正路 and 大禹街 to familiarise ourselves with the location of the various famours eateries and shops. Bought 1 bowl of 扁食 (forgot take photo) at 液香扁食 - the better one as recommended by Mr Looi. Later, had dinner at 炒天下。 This restaurant caters to tourists mainly. While having dinner, 4 tour buses drove in for dinner.

Ordered chinese spinach, beef with onion, cabbage, tofu and sliced fish (not in picture). Food so so only. Serving is ok. Again, the bill is ~NT1200.




中華路 - bought peanut 豆花from 豆花城 along this street, a few shops away from 一心泡泡冰。

公正包子 at night.

Walked back to McDonald's. Pick up point by Mr Looi. This is 中正路. Bought 10 handmade groundnut muahchee from Zhen Ji to enjoy in hotel and Taipei along the way. They must be consumed by tomorrow 12am to ensure freshness.


85c Degree Bakery near the hotel we stayed 1st night. McDonalds is opposite.

Waited for Mr Looi to pick us up at McDonalds. He drove us to Hotel Bayview in Qixingtan. Quite a distance. The boys were not interested in Night Markets so we just rested in the hotel and ate our 豆花 and handmade much chee.
