Just 5 minutes away from Kaohsiung, you’ll reach a beautiful island called Cijin Island 旗津島, making it the perfect destination for families to spend their evening together.

Experience Tainan in a Daytrip! 5 places not to be missed.

They say if you haven’t been to Tainan, you haven’t experience Taiwan. True in some sense. If you never step into Tainan, you might not know the strong Japanese influence in the country. Tainan is one of the oldest city in Taiwan. There are barely any high-rise buildings but they are well-known for preserving the colonial buildings – evidence of their occupation history. We get a full day in this city, just 15 minutes HSR ride away from Kaohsiung. Here…

No Menu Local Dining in Tainan

A restaurant serving 8 courses at the fixed price, with a humourous chef and fresh ingredients – I can totally see why it’s started to get listed as one of the things to do in Tainan. Zhuxinju 筑馨居 is located along a quiet alley of old shophouses and it’s just another table of guest and us while we were there for the lunch course. The dinner, on the other hand is always packed. Reservation is required a day in advance…

10 local foods to try in Myanmar

Mingalarba, my fellow foodies out there! On a very honest and brutal note, not all tourists enjoy having traditional Burmese food. It’s so sour, it’s so spicy, it’s fermented. While we were in the Shan State which is supposedly known for its cuisine, we couldn’t find an authentic restaurant. In most tourist attractions, Thai restaurants are prominent. It’s a pity because travellers will easily miss out on the REAL delicious food in Myanmar. Delicious is not exotic. We are not…
