Scenery Books & Cafe, National Theater Hall, Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, Taipei, Taiwan

In the morning I jumped on the train to head out to Taipei 101 to visit the observatory there. On the trip east I noticed that we went past the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall so took a mental note to hop off the train on my return trip to visit.

It was around lunchtime when I arrived so headed into the National Theater Hall to see what the food options were and found a small place called Scenery Books & Cafe.

Jup Jup Craft Beer Bar & Bistro, Taipei, Taiwan

After a very wet afternoon in Taipei, I braved the rain to head to a craft beer bar that I’d spotted previously.

Getting lost in the underground tunnels of Taipei Main Station I eventually surfaced not too far from where I headed, just on the wrong side of the road. Road crossed, down the side street and I’d arrived at Jup Jup Craft Beer Bar & Bistro.

Le Blé d’Or, Taipei, Taiwan

After a quick flight from Seoul to Taipei I was ready to head out for a drink and dinner somewhere close to Taipei Main Station.

Across the road from the station is a shopping mall called Q Square, and along with lots of shops there are a good number of bars and restaurants. A quick look at the map and up the escalators to the fourth floor I was standing outside Le Ble D’Or with its interesting Chinese/German/Italian menu. In I went.

Oretachi Curry Gongdeok Mapo, Seoul, South Korea

After an afternoon of decent beers at MysterLee I was looking for an early dinner, and my map had me heading to a small Japanese curry store just across the street from the bar called Oretachi Curry.
