Night two, Shi Lin Night Market 士林夜市$BlogItemTitle$>
On the second night, we headed to Shi Lin Night Market which is located right beside Jian Tan Station (剑潭)!
Hordes of people at Shi Lin Night Market
Below I will be introducing some of the most famous food in Shi Lin! It's so famous that you've probably heard about it even though you've never been to Taipei!
1. 豪大大鸡排 Hot-star Large Fried Chicken
omg, the serving is ULTRA HEEEUUUGEEEEEE. and SUPER YUMMY of course!
2. 蛋蜜汁 Honey Egg Juice
This is basically a honey-flavoured juice with an egg in it... sounds disgusting? But you can't taste the egg at all! & in fact it tastes absolutely awesome :)
3. 大饼包小饼
As featured on TV! Basically they mash up one of this...
Then wrap the mashed up stuff inside a popiah skin!
4. 青蛙下蛋 Frog Eggs
Do not be deceived by the name! It is most definitely not frog's eggs!
You can choose from a variety of combinations... but i would recommend 粉圆(mini pearls/tapioca balls) +爱玉 (jelly-like pudding)! By now, you should have guessed that the frog eggs actually refer to the mini pearls in the drink!
4. 蚝仔煎 Fried Oyster Omelette
The dish is basically an omelette with lots of small oysters! Starch is mixed into the egg batter, resulting in a thicker egg wrap! I would recommend to dip into the sweet sauce provided, it brings out the flava'! :D
And a pretty awesome pic of Shi Lin to end this post... :)
Note: Expenses are always calculated for 2 people
