Day 8: Eat Away in Chengdu... :)

Well, I'm craving for dumplings and noodles. :) So here we are at Long Chao Shou (龙抄手). 

Dumplings dumplings come to meeeee...

Pauline's love for bubble tea this trip rubbed off me. :D Check out the UNREASONABLE Bubble Tea Shop (a direct translation from its Chinese name - 不讲道理)! 

Everyone queued, we queued too! :D We had no idea what they were queuing for though! :)))

Ahhhhh a pastry shop. Apparently 百香林西点sells freshly baked pastries and they have presence in many cities in China.

It was only sensible to get 4 bags of pastries after queuing for so long... ;)

This was my fav out of the lot. :)

I couldn't resist entering a flower shop. :) Every bloom screamed pretty! What better way to end this post with blooms and more blooms. :)))

Day 8-9: A Distinctively Luxury Stay at The Temple House ;)

The last view from Grand Hyatt room before we checked out and moved over to The Temple House. Superb weather today btw. :)

The Temple House is a wonderful blend of traditional and modern architecture. I would say it's amongst the best hotels we stayed in China.

The Temple House's Tivano serves regionally inspired Italian cuisine.  :) After having days of spicy Chinese cuisine, anything western is welcomed.

Day 9: A heavy dinner warrant an early morning swim. :))) Pauline hit the gym instead. :D

Breakfast was room service. :)))

We took some time in the morning for spa and wellness indulgence at The Temple House's Mi Xun. Now if the massage session could be a little longer... :)
