another random post w a photo that elaine+nat uploaded on fb (thanks, hehe)
that’s us on a suspension bridge in 烏來, wld have liked the photo to be taken from a different angle such tt we cld actually have the view of whats BELOW the bridge. pityy
it was sorta misty/foggy today- not as conducive for photos as the day we were up at 陽明山
but guess we shd still be thankful considering the fact that the weather forecast actually said it will pour today and it didnt at 烏來 :)
gg over to surgery tmr - no more sleeping in till late mornings/early afternoons
cant believe 2 weeks of electives here have passed just like that, just 2 more weeks left in taipei nooooo :(

just a quick one!
as usual i didnt bring any cable/card reader along w me on exchange so i cant access photos in my camera
so here’s a photo that elaine and nat uploaded of us at 陽明山 (and im stealing it :P)
cant express how happy we are that the weather was amaaaazing that day and hence we had gorgeous views up in 陽明山! really fortunate!!
the days before were all rainy and the last time the other exchange students went up they were greeted by fog, poor them
we went firefly watching in the dark in the forest last night, it was fun!! christy’s relative kindly drove all of us up to the forest, thanks soo much! :))
am waiting for the girls to return from m&m (yes they have m&m at night) before we all head out for dinner hungryyy!

didnt manage to publish this before i left cos i was in a such big rush to pack and get on the plane lol
anw am in taiwan now!
ok just a short one, gtg
NIGHT! :)
I seldom blog about things the very next day but I’m doing this right now (blogging about Saveur when we just went there yest) because I like the place so much!
Read on to find out why :)

3.90 for the angel hair pasta - look carefully! the decimal comes before 9 and not after!
same goes for 7.90 for the foie gras

the mains are reaaaaalllly reasonably priced as well
now for the 2nd thing that i seldom do- list prices of items (im usually too lazy to :P)

pan fried foie gras w lentils and pickled onion- $7.90

angle hair pasta w sherri minced pork and sakura ebi - $3.90
yummy!

all 3 of us had the duck confit - $8.90
pretty tasty! I liked it- finished it within 5 min :P
and im sure most will agree you cant find duck confit below 9 dollars anywhere else
cant wait to try the beef dishes when i go back next time!

happy~!
so…do we look alike?
their desserts are more pricey like 6++ (in fact, an extravagance as compared to their sides and mains lol)

gerry’s chocolate and hazelnuts

my textures of citrus
it was so-so
their mains fared much better

ah lyn and her pistachio panna cotta ~ tastes kinda almond-ish, ah lyn loved it!
now for the 3rd thing that i dont usually do - provide the address and contact no. of the restaurant im blogging about
(i think the last and only time i did was for kith)
91250124 but
i walked to Saveur from home (15 min walk!)
purvis st is near raffles hotel/bras brasah, you can easily walk from raffles city/bugis junction
gerry and ah lyn who were there earlier (i was late!) alr got seats by the time i was there so i wriggled my way through the big crowd waiting for seats outside into the pretty small restaurant
good location + tasty food +reaallly low prices = i like!
if you like french food and you’re not an ambience snob then you shd really check Saveur out ;)
