Day 2.5

Walking around Ximending.

We went back to the hotel to rest, then went out again to visit other places.

The motive for the rest of the day was to shop for shoes and visit some tourist attraction.

But of course, first and foremost, dinner first.

No.

Actually we went to Show Luo
羅志祥's shop first.

And it looked like this on the outside.

Photo kopped from Twiggy

No photography inside.

Thanks to Twiggy and Annie, I'd have walked past the shop without noticing it. Nothing much to say about the shop though.

We had dinner at this eatery called 温州大餛飩, i.e. Big dumplings of this place called Wenzhou. Or Wen Continent. I don't know.


Anyway.

That's the menu.


A well-known Taiwanese actress called Chen Meifeng visited this eatery before too.


Introducing our orders.

Annie's 炸酱面.


Twiggy's delicious 红油炒手. Too bad I'm not very good at tolerating spicy stuff.


My 温州餛飩面. Simple and yummy. The dumplings were really nice.


And off we went to our next destination, known as Yuanling Shoe Street. It's just a street with shops selling shoes. Need I explain? Haha.

When we were walking there from the eatery we passed by a few street stalls selling snacks, and we decided to try some.

There was muah chee,


and pancake.


The pancake was too rich with the red bean filling, it was kinda over. However you can really taste the red beans in the paste much unlike the totally grounded kind in Singapore.

That's Yuanling Shoe Street for you.



Another nothing much place.

They have these big shoes at the entrance at the other end.



That's it!
