“Rot” is slang for my daughter generation to mean a lazy day. That’s exactly what we did for the morning and early afternoon. I explored the area and found that we can get to our mrt station within a block and walk the rest underground while browsing different shopping stores and snacks. Amazing. When we didn’t know this we would walk 12 min in the rain to get to the station.
The only formal thing we did was our three hour food tour via Viator at 5pm. $48 a person for 12 tastings and visited a small temple and ended in Ningxia market. https://www.viator.com/search/387012P10?mcid=70066
We started in the dihua street and started with
- pigs blood cake
- braised pork rice with veggie and braised tofu side dishes
- stinky tofu. This was just okay. I like the spicy ones I had that were black in Hangzhou better.
- grass jelly tea which is quite refreshing and good to lower our internal heat
Then off to a temple to see the city god and another god of love. Next tasting was gua bao with pork belly - best in the city called pretty cool gua bao. 滿潮刈包 pretty cool GUA BAO https://share.google/syejmjHOUvP9lcQfg plus amazing wheel pie next door for only nt 20 a piece so $0.70 😋
Lastly we had scallion cake - delicious but too oily, peanut rolled pineapple ice cream - delicious and sweat potato balls - airy and mochi like. Overall very fun. We were so full we couldn’t eat anymore so didn’t even walk the Ningxia night market Another time. Isabel also got an amazing boba tea at 50 lan, famous chain store in Taiwan We loved it but don’t know the name of the drink we got 🤪 we went to bed early as we have a full day tour next day at 8:30am.
