Who needs $1 Stores when you have Daiso - Day 26 - May 31, 2010

Breakfast Sandwich for Lunch



Looks familiar? It's the hanbao jiadan. I bought this at the breakfast shop behind Shida. I use to get one of these last summer all the time. However, it cost more than others. This place charges 35NT=$1.09. But they have more vegetables and the fried pork pattie taste fresher. This breakfast shop uses lettuce, tomato, corn, and cucumbers for the vegetables. They also had a really light ketchup flavor and a fried egg. Yum yum!

Vietnamese Dinner



I ate at Madame Jill Vietnamese Cuisine in Gongguan Night Market. Their food has improved from last year! But their stuff is pretty pricey.

Deep fried chicken with pickled carrots and cucumbers for 110NT=$3.43


The first two pieces of chicken were really good and flavorful. The drumstick didn't match though. The soup was also really salty, but yet addicting.


Daiso



Daiso is basically Taiwan's version of our $1 stores in the states. Everything in Daiso cost 39NT=$1.22. It's a tiny bit higher but everything in the store is so much better! It has everything, frying pans, hair ties, makeup, containers, toys, scrap-booking material, and more. Of course, you probably don't want to get your mini frying pan or makeup there because most likely they suck. But there are some good finds there!

There is even a section for massage tools and snacks.


I don't know if the balloon boobs are a good find, but they're definitely funny. There are also tools to make bento boxes! I bought a couple of them =)
