Food we missed…

April 5, 2009 random

These things that we have taken for granted are either hard to find or ridiculously expensive… Frozen food in general. Cheese pizza: pizzas have to have LOTs of toppings.

March 26, 2009 through the looking glass

Lu Sang restaurant in Yongkang Street may strike you as yet another roadside Japanese restaurant in Taipei from outside because of its bamboo-focused decor, but a quick peek inside, the modernized traditional-style tables and chairs will [...]
