Well guess what... I haven't uploaded my photos yet~! 
So I stole Risako's photos off facebook and I will use them instead hahaha 
Oh and I'm really lazy to upload all of the photos into one post, so I'm gonna do this one part at a time... like a series~! 
Okay so I will start off with Ximin Night Market
Took the mrt there. The mrt in Taipei is a really efficient way to get around~!
Arrived and camwhored~!! We were also meeting some friends there that were also going to Taipei for project week...but we didn't quite manage to take a group photo~!! 
Also met Michelle there, who moved from Singapore back to Taiwan a few months back. It was great seeing her again~! 
We went to get some food first of course...we were starving~! 
Our martial arts coach told us to go on the weekends because there would be more people, and that on a Wednesday night there would be hardly any people...
It was packed~!!!
Plus I don't see why more people makes it better... Less people is better~! Safer and you don't get squished~! 
We left it up to Michelle to find us a place to get the best Taipei street food~! I was really excited as I heard so many times that the street food in Taiwan is delicious. 
On the left: Some crispy thing which I never got to try
On the right: Stinky tofu~!!!
I'd heard a lot about this dish and I really wanted to give it a test myself~! 
Stuffed with mushroom/seafood (took those out though because I don't eat prawn or mushroom).
It had a really nice crispy skin, and the tofu inside was really soft and silky. It tasted surprisingly good... but really don't smell it before you eat it~! 
I won't describe the smell...because either you know it or I will put you off it. But it tastes good~! Even if you don't like it, its a must try~!
Next up was the oyster omelette.
Actually I ordered mine without the oysters because I don't eat shellfish apart from scallops. I sound so picky but really I eat most foods~!!
The texture was kind of a bit strange, because on the outside it looked like an ordinary egg omelette, but on the inside it was a clear colour, with the texture resembling something like sticky rice cake but more jelly-like. It tasted okay though, and the sauce on top was yummy so I finished it~!
We went to a drinks/fruits stall to get bubble tea~! Taiwan is where it originated from...so you should be able to get the best ones there~! 
Do you notice some weird species of fruit/veg there~?!
Have no idea what this is~! Looks like an ill gourd or something. 
Me with Taiwan bubble tea~! Ignore my weird face ok and concentrate on the drink~!!! 
Hmm...the milk tea tastes the same as the one in Singapore... but maybe a little milkier. They were very generous with the pearls..but they were the smaller kind. I like the big squishy ones~!!
Feeling full we went outside of the food market... thinking that we were going on to the shopping. But then, Michelle told us to wait a while and she went somewhere else.
She came back with...
(excuse the crappy picture) the best crispy fried chicken I have ever had in my life~!!!
It was tender, juicy, hot, crispy, salty and peppery at the same time~! If you want to experience the best fried chicken (guaranteed) gogogogo now~!!! 
I had never really liked KFC chicken that much anyway... but this was like 12897831984782386547637 times better~!! 
The queue for the famous crispy chicken...on a Wednesday night~!! 
Trust me when I say...its worth the wait~!! Ok I'll stop raving now...
Entered the shopping part of the night market. Spot me~!! Our group is all at the front view.
Random shot of Johnson. Nice photography skills there Riz...
Han Viet found a husky hat~!! I actually have a better photo than this... I will upload it later...
HAN VIET: Hey if you guys pay for this... I will wear it for the rest of the day and the next mufti day
JOHNSON: Okay! goes and buys
Risako tried on a lion version...
And so did I~!
Risako and I bought matching hats~! It was sooo cold there...and they were really cute~! 
We didn't take any photos of the actual shopping part...we were too busy fighting our way through the crowds and bargains to have time for that~!
Before we left, we stopped off at a local fruit stall to get some strawberries 
. Our judo instructor told us that they were in season and very sweet.
The woman there was really nice, offering us samples of the strawberries and other fruits she had for sale 
The strawberries were so good~!
I think there was some sugar added with them, but even without it they were delicious~! Big and juicy and full of flavour, unlike the small, sour and tasteless ones that seem to be on sale in Singapore.
I will conclude this post with a picture of our hotel room after we got back.
This is a girl's room i swear~!!!
