Dis post is dedicated to all of the awesome food I get to eat e'eryday. It is gonna go like dis. I am going to show pictures of food I eat often and then also show pictures of food that I may not eat often but that is totes amazing. Kewl.
Get it on---
This quite possibly is the best snack in the world:
Hit Cookie Home
You can fill them with a bunch of different things (more than shown in the picture below)
Yeah, so I just had to start with that because I get that as a snack quite oftennnnn. Now I am going to just put a bunch of different pictures on and try to explain them the best that I can. But first, I think that I should explain that I live in a Night Market called "Feng Chia Night Market" and it is filled with the best food ever. Soooooo you should all be jealous. (That was a terrible explanation, I am aware of this)
 |
| This place is buffet style and I usually just get a bunch of veggies and then rice. $1.50 American. |
 |
| Thai Food. This place is right by my dorm. This pic has fried rice and egg rolls. $2 |
 |
| I bought this from the Night Market one night. You can buy a sausage and then fill it with whatever (even Chocolate). The drink is Passion Fruit Juice |
 |
| This are Japanese Style noodles that I had in Taipei. |
 |
| Fried Pork topped with Cheesy sauce. I get this vurry often. |
 |
| This is just a typical lunchbox that you can get in Taiwan. The lunchbox is usually meat and then you can pick 3 different types of vegetables. |
 |
| This was in Tainan. It was interesting. |
 |
| Brown Sugar Cookies |
 |
| This is the cute old lady making the Brown Sugar cookies in Tainan. |
 |

 |
| Nom nom nom. Noodles. |
 |
| A lot of peepz like to eat at this restaurant. Meat, rice, veggies. Amazing. |
 |
| The people at this dumpling place know me. Every time I walk there they are like "Dumplings?" and I am like "Ya grrrl" They literally may be the best dumplings ever. I love them and eat them at least once a week. |

 |
| Lunch= Fried Rice with Corn soup and Black Tea. You can get Corn Soup at a lot of restaurants here and it is amazinggngngngnngng. |
 |
| Noodles in a bag for lunch. |
 |
| This place is open all night. So if I get hungry at night and don't want to walk through the night market...I go here. It is like 1 minute from my dorm. |
 |
| If you come to Feng Chia Night Market you have to eat this. It is famous and there is always a huge line to eat it. It is sausage and then instead of a bread bun the bun is made out of a sausage made out of rice. I am sure there is a better way of explaining that. |
 |
| This is duck. |
 |
| Japanese Restaurant for lunch and their curry is yum. |
 |

 |
| I like buying this from the convenient store. Rose Tea. Btw, also a ton of convenient stores here. But they are better than in the US. Here, you can pay your house bills (electric, water, etc.), you can order something online and then pick it up at 7-11, you can buy tickets (bus, train, plane), etc. |

Okay dawgz, I lied. You can't do a Taiwan food post without also talking
about the bajillion different types of drinks you can buy here. Like
seriously. Walking from my dorm to my school I see an uncountable number
of tea stands. Like this..
In this picture (this one pictureeeee) which is on the way to my school, I can count at least 5 beverage stands. So ya, pretty much it is the best thing ever.
And what can you buy at these stands? Well, one thing is CNN's Number 25 (out of 50) most delicious drinks in the world: Bubble Milk Tea.
Another video of how all of the drinks are made (depending what jew order)

| 愛玉. I love buying drinks with this in it. |

 |
| Drink in bagz. Always. (I know I already had this picture) |
 |
| Very small part of the night market. Food stand after food stand...drink stand after drink stand. I will never go hungry here in Taiwan. |

Okay, So I know that I have missed a ton of food that I need to talk about. So I am going to leave this post open. Maybe have a Part 2. Ya that sounds like a plan. But I tried to do some of the most famous and some of the things I eat most often. Also, about the drinks section. There are an unlimited variety of drinks and it will be impossible for me to name them all. Well I guess the same goes for the food section also.
Basically I just eat my life away in Taiwan.
Cool.
