CKS/Din Tai Feng/Taipei 101/Sogo/Danshui/Raohe NM
Went to CKS Memorial Hall at about 9am but it was still very hot - the perspiration just keep rolling down, even with an umbrella!
Side Gate leading to Xinyi Road
Went to a 7-11 across the road to ask for directions to Din Tai Feng YongKang St. The people were helpful. There was this elderly gentleman who did not know the way to YongKang St but he asked the bus driver on our behalf!
Reached Din Tai Feng 鼎泰蘴 after 2 stops. Not many people. We ordered only 1 set of 小籠包 since we had a full breakfast at hotel. Nice and cheap and tea is free and free flow!!! Cannot get this here! It costed NT198 including 10% tax. Value for money!
After that, took a bus to WTC and walked to Taipei 101. There were many buses going to WTC. Just look at the board at the bus stop.
Taipei 101 - bought the Hualian muah chee at NT100/packet and ginger tea at the market place. Colleagues and daughter's classmates said the muah chee is nice. I agree too.
Walked on the sheltered walkway to New York New York - nothing much. not quite the same as the one in LV! The sheltered walkway reminded me of the one in Bangkok. It connected up a few shopping centres and was a pleasant and safe walk!
Taipei 101

台北市松智路- New York New York on the right, WTC3 on the left
After that, took the free shuttle to Taipei City Hall MRT and went to visit Sogo Shopping Centre to take a look at lift lady. Had late lunch at Sogo before going back hotel to put down the things. Ordered Kimchi Soup and rice.
Dansui Station
Dansui - old street not bad - very colourful but 阿給, 鉄蛋, fishball so so. Gave the whole packet of eggs to hotel staff.
The other side of old street facing Keelung River
阿婆鉄蛋 - can't appreciate the hardened black egg white
阿給 quite bland; fishballs, glutinous rice - so so
Rained quite heavily before we could get to the ferry terminal. So skip the fisherman's wharf.
Visited Raohe NM in the evening but it was raining, which made the trip not so enjoyable.
Tried the Pepper bun - so so only. Look at the queue.
