My favorite breakfast in Taiwan - Hamburger & Egg Biscuit (汉堡与蛋饼)

After a few days in Taiwan, I realized I actually like their breakfast very much. Oh yes, I like their hamburger and egg biscuit(汉堡与蛋饼). FL asked me, not boring meh? always eat these breakfast. Well, NO!! I'm actually looking forward to have these for my breakfast.

So after 2 days having hamburger and egg biscuit, on the 4th day of our Taiwan trip, we had hamburger and egg biscuit AGAIN!! But this time, we had it at a different shop which located at a few blocks away from our hotel.

the menu

our warm tea with sugar and tea with milk
nt 30 each (RM 3.50)
both sucks..
i wonder why they food can be so nice
but their drinks so yucky..

chicken drumstick hamburger (鸡肉腿汉堡)
nt 40 (RM 4.7)

pork chop egg biscuit (肉排蛋饼)
nt 20 (RM 2.4)

carrot cake with egg (萝卜糕加蛋)
nt 30 (RM 3.5)

The carrot cake is just normal, nothing special. To me, it's kind of weird to eat carrot cake with egg. hehe...

Everything is with egg, breakfast alone we already had 3 eggs! Wow!! I really like their hamburger, the bread is soft and no matter what kind of hamburger you ordered, it's definitely less oily if compared to our burger here.

As for the egg biscuit, you won't really feel full after eating it. But it's nice to eat as snacks. hehe...

I guess this will be the last hamburger and egg biscuit i had for my breakfast in Taiwan. Pretty sure FL won't let me have the same breakfast again tomorrow. :p

Famous dessert in Taiwan (鲜宇仙)

After our dinner at the 30 yrs old shop, we explore the shops around our hotel. We walked and walked and walked (for an hour or so..) and suddenly FL stopped and said, hey, this is the dessert shop that recommended by forumers, want to try?

We really get a lot of information on food from forumers, hehe..

鲜宇仙

the menu

the story of the shop

the shop is quite nice,
heard there's a lot of branches all over Taiwan

a pager/beeper?

We need to make our order at the counter. After we paid, we were given this, a pager. When our orders are ready, it will beeps. Then we can go to the counter and collect our dessert.

It sounds systematic right? But still, they missed out our orders. We waited for like 15 minutes but still the pager remained silent. We checked our orders at the counter and then only found out they missed out our orders.

FL's dessert
the round round big big in the middle is yam

and mine..
the white is yam, yellow is sweet potato,
then there's red bean..

We didn't expect it to be such a big bowl. We may just ordered a bowl instead of 2 if we knew it earlier. I forgot what we ordered but I remembered the taste is just normal. In fact, we took a hard time to finish our dessert. hehe.. The bill adds up to nt 90 (RM 10.60), not cheap also...

Worth to try if you never tried before, but I don't think I will visit the shop again if I got the chance to visit Taiwan next time. :p
