Dropped by Wufenpu shortly to pick up some T-shirts for the Cow, hoping that I'll bump my way back to the shops I lost yesterday. Sadly I had to leave waving my white flag to the maze and empty handed without any bags.
Next stop, Ximending.
Picked up a cheap pair of jeans outside the Red House, ahhhh the Red House, the shops in there were just superbly zakka style (did I mention I love zakka?). The merchandises in there are pretty expensive, but every item is well worth the price. We came out with a bagful of items ranging from T-shirt to postcards, cell phone pouch and stickers.
Crossed the street and we've reached the heart of Ximending, overwhelmed with neon sign boards, eateries, hawkers and shops. Dishes we tried here, stinky tofu (臭豆腐), local pancake (車輪餅), local style kebab.
The stuff in the shops are reasonably priced, otherwise... cheap. Despite the low prices, bargaining with a bit of small talk, the prices dropped even further.
Once again, din't manage to grab any bags there, they are more for teenagers, PVC slings and haversacks doesn't really go for me. But I did bagged another pair of boots which is pretty cheap IMO, SGD 28.50.
Last stop, Shi Da night market.
Mainly food and cheap kawaii and girly stuff. Had high hopes for it since I've heard so much good reputation about it, rather disappointing in terms of shopping, but the food is pretty good there. We managed to try the cold salty chicken (鹹水雞), herbal duck vermicelli (當歸面綫), oyster omelette (蚵仔煎).
