Day 5: Luce Chapel x Miyahara Eye Hospital x AhMing Shi Lao Dian x Yizhong Street Market,

Halfway through my exams! The end is nearing, I can totally smell the freedom approaching! Hahah! Rlly can't wait for everything to end because I seriously need a good slp!

Day 5:
It's our 2nd day in Taichung and we woke up late because... THERE'S NO WINDOWS IN THE AIBNB ROOM THAT WE BOOKED! The only window the whole place has was the square one in the toilet. Prepared and off we went!

First stop: Yi Zhong Street // 一中街夜市
We were famished by the time we reached the place and we decided that we should settle our lunch in a Japanese restaurant! LOL! It's like, wherever we go, we'll definitely go for Jap cuisine at least once!



We ordered two set meals that comes with one side dish. The main itself is already damn big and when the waitor served the mains to our table, our first reaction was "OMG, SUCH A BIG PORTION!!". Just see the size of the omelette rice!!

Cabbed down to The Luce Chapel after our meal as our intention was not to shop the market during daytime. The chapel is located in a school - Tung Hai University. So, the cabbie wasn't able to drive in to the chapel so he dropped us at the gate. This chapel never disappoint us! We stayed there and took 2hrs worth of photo! Just scroll down and you'll knw! Hahahah!






Snapchat time! :/



Love this so much! ❤




I wasn't kidding when I mentioned that we took hell lots of photos!! HAHAH! There are more below. We decided to do some mainstream couple kind of photos. Like this...


 

But we realised that it wasn't easy afterall because it took us 3 to 4 sets of multi shots before we could get ONE-FREAKING PROPER PHOTO! The truth behind taking these photos... All the tak glam ones!






The aftermath. LOL!
We had to catch the timing of the shutter so we ended up stoning at the camera while looking at the blinking light on my camera. HAHAHAH! But it was fun after all because we don't usually do these in Singapore! Time flew by super quickly. It was already 5pm when Baby checked the time. It felt as if it was only an hour.

Proceeded to the bus stop outside the school to take bus 88 to THSR before we headed down to Miyahara Eye Hospital for their ice cream. HAHAH! This place used to be an eye clinic during World War. You may read more info here. And yes, the interior design is really vintage and pretty. To me, it's like the institution where Harry Potter studies. Maybe just me! Anyway, they sell local delicacies such as 太阳饼,凤梨酥 and more...






We went next door for our ice cream because the reason why we're here is because of the ice cream and not for the snacks.










We ordered waffle cup + 2 scoops of ice cream. We could choose 3 sides for our dessert. So this was the end product.

It was damn huge!


Headed to s'where where the netizens claimed that it was one of the most famous places to buy Taiwan snacks back home. It's called 阿明师老店. Oh, the good thing about this shop is that it has delivery service. It was our last day in Taichung that day and the person said they could deliver to our hotel in Taipei the following week because if we were to purchase the snacks at that time, everything would have expired on the day we left Taiwan. HAHAH! So yupp, make sure you check the expiry dates and also check with the staffs whether they do delivery around the whole of Taiwan.





Headed back to Yizhong night market for more food! Erm, we were quite full by then so we dabao-ed food back to our apt. But, who knew it'd turn so nua when we reached our place :(













And this marks the end of our day 5 in Taiwan! We had to pack our luggage that night because..... WE ARE HEADING TO TAIPEI THE NEXT DAY!!
