Welcome To Taiwan (歡迎參觀台灣)

Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall (中正紀念堂)

Over the next few weeks, I'll be writing about my trip back to my birth country of Taiwan. Even though the trip occurred last fall, Taiwan is a place I'd visit at least once or twice a year, easily making it my second home. I love the culture, people, shopping, and of course, the food there. Although this recent trip was more for a family matter, thus a lack of pictures than usual, I hope to add more to this section on my upcoming Asia trip this fall.

Taiwanese Breakfast (臺式早餐)

After landing at CKS International Airport at 6AM in the morning, the only thing that was on my mind was getting some food in my stomach. After being picked up at the airport by my friends Roxy and her husband Dennis, we stopped by their house in Linkou (林口區), which is in the Taipei district. Along the way, picked up some Taiwanese breakfast. Since I had a meal with my relatives in a few hours, I had to make it light.

Sweet Soy Milk - dou jian (甜豆漿)

Chinese Donut wrapped with Egg Pancake - you tiao bao dan bing (油條包蛋餅)

Nothing says welcome to Taiwan to me than some Chinese donut, egg pancake and soymilk. This is a total #winning in my book. Now, those that knows me probably knows I dislike fried dough, well, I usually make an exception with Chinese donuts (油條). Bias yes, but I grew up with this stuff when I lived in Taiwan. Coming up will be a series of posts about one of my favorite things to eat, Beef Noodle Soup (牛肉麵), aka NRM. I look forward to writing about those places.

台灣是我的寶島。我希望在這幾個星期中可以把我去年秋天回台的旅遊記入在我的網
站裡。一大早到中正機場以後﹐我第一個想到的就是吃的。還好我的朋友們家玉還
有她的先生葉蛋蛋從機場就帶我去吃早點。油條包蛋餅和豆漿。真的超贊的﹗

從下一個作文開始我會開始寫我超喜歡的牛肉麵。希望大家會繼續的讀。謝謝
