Taiwan Trip Dec 6-14 Day 8 - Pass by CKS Memorial Hall / Lunch at 高記

Bought 2 sets of pills from a phamarcy across the hotel. They costed NT100 but they were very effective. The phamarcist said tummy ache is very common. Amazingly, my son's tummy ache recovered and he was ready for lunch. So, we took train to CKS Station and walked by CKS Memorial Hall to get to Xinyi Road. We intended to go to DingTaiFeng for lunch. We came to CKS last summer. This round, just wanted to let the boys have a glimpse of this majestic hall. There were many people here today. Very crowded and full of young people.

The last time we came, we did not see this water fountain.




My son's sharp eyes caught the CKS statue from afar. Yup, son, it is CKS statue.




Xin Yi Road - There is a new bus that runs from near Taipei Station, CKS, Yongkang St and then to directly opposite Taipei 101 called the 信義新榦綫。 It runs very frequently.

Reached Yongkang St but there was still a queue and waiting time of 40mins at DingTaiFeng so we went to 高記 Gao Ji instead. No queue here. The peak hour is over.


Our favourite small fishes and nut

Char Siew Pastry

Chinese spinach - ordered 2 plates

Fried Tofu

Fried Rice - ordered 2 plates. Hubby liked it. I find it too wet.

Noodles

Carrot Cake

小龍包 - my daughter said it tasted the same as DingTaiFeng.

Siew Mai 燒賣. Total cost : NT2000. This is my eldest boy's most favourite lunch for the entire trip. He loves Cantonese Dim Sum and cuisine.

高記 - while looking for ice monster

Here it was but no mango shaved ice.


Yong Kang Street - quite colourful too. Many eateries and shops.
