A Dazzling Lunch





























Before we left Taipei, we had the most incredible toast at Dazzling Cafe! I'm loving it. :)





























Thank you Elaine for taking time to do lunch with us on a Monday. :)




























Uni pasta














Scallop pasta













Seafood pasta in tomato sauce













It's the season of strawberries! They go so well with ice cream & toast. I'm missing it already! *.*





























The empty house! Even the walls are yuuuummmm....





























The fruit teas completed our meals. ;)













































Vacations are always so short...I'm counting down to the next one. ;)

Dining Under the Stars at Shi-Yang Teahouse (食养山房)













食养山房 is nestled amongst the mountain trails. The drive up might be a little daunting for first timers there, but it was worth every effort. The tranquility & ambience was mind blowing. This is where we would be having our dinner tonite. :)

Wu Yue Xue (五月雪)greeted us. :)








































We made it in time for dinner! :)


















Serious business talk...













There isn't any menu & hence every dish was a surprise. :)

蕃石榴冰飲
















玉米浆 + 山泉水花生豆腐 












干贝蒸蛋 + salmon roll

















Assorted Cold Sashimi
















水果醋





























Wu yu zi (mullet)ma shu+ scallop with truffle oil














Wu yu zi 菜汤






























Oyster truffle mushroom mixed with rice






























百茹莲花鸡汤





































Yam paste





























Seasonal fruits






























The dinner was incredible, and satisfied all our senses.





























In case you are wondering, the dinner lasted approximately 3 hours. :)
