Although our
hotel stay can with simple breakfast, we decided to venture out this morning to try a local breakfast. But just as we walked out onto the streets of
Ximending, it started to rain and we ended up having breakfast at the nearest
7-Eleven. It was getting a little chilly so what better way to warm the stomach then some tea eggs and oden!

After the warm meal, we just ventured out in the drizzle and there was plenty to see: food, shops, street art, live music and even a mini concert.

After all that walking and shopping, we had a late lunch at
Rakumenya (樂麵屋) which was within the vicinty.

With our stomachs satiated, we walked another stretch of
Ximending. We walked past the area were all the cinemas were and decided to watch a midnight movie after our
Jingmei night market tour.

As we had a night market tour later in the evening, we made our way to one of the
Ximending mrt exits. Along the way we had soe street food, and DramaQueen finally had the chance to try the famous
Ah Zhong Mee Sua. The queue was just forming so we went and bought ourselves a bowl before heading to
Jingmei MRT Station for our night market tour.

| Ah Zhong Mee Sua: the broth was flavorful and not (strongly) gamey. while the thin stands of noodles were practically melt in your mouth. As for the pieces of intestine, they are barely noticeable if you chew really fast. 😆 |

| 16工房 Creative Boutique: We still had a little time, so we explored this boutique aka the red house. It's a great space with lots of artisanal items. I wish we had more time to explore. Well, there's always next time! 😁 |
When travel collides with a byte, a unit of information made up of bits, TravelBytez is formed: snippets of ramblings on travel, food, shopping, living and anything else that comes to mind.
