It might look pretty ugly outside but that’s the main purpose of it that they had transform the whole basement into classic era olden days of Taiwan architecture which is from 50’s – 70’s. It is very impressive that the whole place are decorated with mini streets, vintage bicycle, cars, cameras, coffee shops, police stations  and many more.

If you are interested in the lifestyle of Taiwan olden days, then I would recommended this place as its a good place for photoshoot as we thought we would just spend a short time in this place but ended up 3 hours as we camwhore alot..So be prepared to scroll it..:)

On the way walking to the ticket counter we had already encounter the classic feeling that we were actually back to the 70′s with the film poster and advertisement decorated along the way yet shine it with classic orange light bulbs.

Classic advertisement poster.

This are the rates to enter the area as they do have promotions too. NT 200 is just only the entrance for adults but they promotion of NT280 include a drink and a meal in the area which is more cost savvy but as we are going to Ximenting after this so we shall ignore the promotion.

After we walked into this area, we were like…woahhh~ photoshoot heaven.

A section which explain the bikes and cars.

One of the stalls selling food at the road side.

and I am the one selling. . .

mini walkway of the olden days

a mini sundry shop that you can actually buy some souvenir back . . . .

I sure miss this feeling when I was a young kid I did help my grandfather to buy ciggis in a sundry shop, Even all this packs of ciggis are not open.

I still remember when I was a kid I do go to the sundry shop buying all this kind of item which cost RM0.20 or RM0.30 in Malaysia.

Public toilet which I forgot to shoot inside also. . .:)

Us trying to strom the area as classic as possible..

One of the movie that every one is anticipated to watch but I am quite suprise that most of the trailer do shown in 3-D but why Malaysia is not showing 3-D as me and my friends are waiting to watch this show in 3-D. Want to get bitten. This movie is not that bad afterall with a flock of fish attacking all the humans… One of the best thing you will see is that this movie is film during their summer break so all the girls are in bikini’s..

Overall, not a bad show to watch but very short film, it is about 70 minutes if not mistaken.

– Tik Ching, Pass, Stamped –

Overall ratings 6.5/10, Not bad lah~

– The movie rated by me is by my own personal preference. Watch it at your own risk –

Usually a new restaurant to me, what I would order is more on their signature dish or chef recommendation or the recommendation of that captain but what we have got on that day is all pre arrange. Just sit back and be prepared to be showered with lottttsssss of food.

One of their signature drink is which I lurrrveeeee it alot Sour Plum Juice, something which is very refreshing, sour level till my jaw is a bit lose yet not that sweet, just as I like it but some of them do not like it.  Homemade Herbal Tea is one on the front.

Be prepared to get pampered by the wide range selection of draft beer.

As me, Vialentino, Uli and Ken were there early, we decided to go on for their Kilkenny draft beer, anything with draft I am into it.

A perfect half pint of Kilkenny with the smooth silky foam at the top of it.

Need to take a break after a long day hard work and enjoying myself in this great ambiance.

DJ of the night will blast you off with RnB, Trance, House and on certain days have different music. Their RnB mixing is good…

If you feel you need in style with some privacy space with your own friends, then get this VIP area with solid red sofa that suits you well by overlook at the dance floor.

Yvonne, Shell, Choi Yen and Jas

Lemongrass Tea

Milkshake - Thick and creamy with ice cream taste, worth the price.

Special lychee ice-blended - chill and sweet of lychee taste

Iced lychee that had hint of lime which is sweet and a bit of sour.

Mojito – not solid hard in taste but great to go along with pizza.

Special MOVIDA cocktail

The food presentation itself already much attracted us to take our knife and fork to poke through it and go into our mouth. Seared Scallops had been well grill on both side that does not make it too cook yet its soft in the middle and its fresh accompany by mango chilli salsa, alfalfa and basil that mix the taste of sweet sour very well. Great start.

Sauted Prawn’s on grilled zucchini, aioli and aragula

Grill along with a bit of spice that the prawn absorb the taste and with one big bite taste that served with simple decorations.

Char Grilled Lamb that grill till did not over cook it, soft on the meat which doesnt make it too hard to bite, shower along with mint sauce is perfect.

When this was served it shock us a little with such a big portion, Country Style Roast Chicken grilled sweet potatoes, corn on cob and mushroom gravy.

Then this fellow Vialentino was so hungry till keep asking I want that piece i want that piece, and picture picture.. lol..seriously have to thank this crazy guy for arranging all this.

Next in the list Fillet of Salmon with zucchini ribbon, boiled baby potatos and spicy tomato sauce.

While I was taking the picture pointing it near to my camera I can still feel the heat of the plate and salmon and the slices of it parting slightly had tempted all of us by the look of it, it proves us right that the salmon is fresh and with fork poking in through it just break naturally and eat along with the sauce on the plate is awesome.

If you prefer something light or mind in taste then I would recommend Spaghetti Aglio-olio with Seafood with olive oil, chilli, parsley and basil.

I used to be do not like Pasta in this kind of dressing but after much I learn how to enjoy it, this would be one of the latest edition to my list.

MOVIDA Platter with Quesadillas, Chicken Wings, Tempura Calamari, prawn served with Thai Chili Sauce.

Clubber’s Platter – Chicken wings, sauteed lamb sausages, potato wedges and grilled squid

One thing that we love it very much for the night is their pizza range. Prepared in very thin in slices yet rich in flavour. Shower with a lot of cheeze and the ingredient added on is not stingy. Smoked Salmon Flambe with Gorgonzola & Mushroom

Beef Pepperoni Pizza

Beef Bacon Flambe with mushroom, onion & cheese on thin crust

I just can have this whole piece by myself.

We are the pizza delivery people. If you need pizza, just call us at 7654321 for pizza delivery.

After our dinner there is a mini show from this great master of magic performer – Zlwin Chew from http://www.zlwinmagic.com/

Seriously what he did is just not a trick that he perform directly infront of our eyes.

From normal fork then he shake it lightly and till the form of it change till its all bent!

Then Choi Yen did not believe what he is doing and decided to give it a touch of it but she felt the bent of it.

To further bent it, he use the power of eyes that Superman had the red light lazer beem from his eyes but Zlwin had the invisible version.

Then she decided to try again to proof it!

At the end of the result, bent plus super bent. Then we took the fork and try to twist it ourself and trust me, they are just the hard steel fork as we usually use and Vialentino using all his energy to bent back the shape of it but then that’s just too hard. Something Amazing huh~

Choi Yen and her Magic fork.

Next comes to this celebration that must not miss a full temptation cake which is Durian Cake topped with Macaron was specially made by BigBoysOven.

To celebrate his age, we try to poke as many candle as possible instead of one.

One funny thing is that we use the trick candle where you blow the candle already it will never flame out and one little spark lit it back again. Well, Ken did not know that as he blow the cake till his face is so funny.

Happy Birthday to Ken on that day.

It was a great night for all of us to hang out with booze, good food and great companion which cannot deny that Modiva was one of the good choice, furthermore I have been returning to this place for a few times already.

If you are looking for a place to dine and drink, this is one of the places I would recommend.

One of the famous entertainment show that my housemate influence me into was Wo Cai, Wo Cai, Wo Cai Cai Cai (Guess Guess Guess). From the first show I watched, I got addicted to the engaging host as well as the interesting program.

The people in Taiwan are put a lot of effort in dressing up with fabulous makeup and hair do.

See you guys there~

For the past whole week, I have been just using this Osis Gelastic which is ultra strong flex gel and I have been trying on my hair while it is either still a bit damp or dry for myself to test it out. I find the effectiveness during my hair is still damp by pressing a small amount of gel onto my hand and gel my hair accordingly to what I like and within minutes it had dried up quickly and harden the look of it which I love it for my short hair. If you love your hair just to be in one look, strong grip, a bit of wet look then I would recommend Gelastic.

To add in extra spice up on my hair to gain better control of it comes these Osis Finishing range which is the latest product by Schwarzkopf is Osis Shine Duster in silver bottle and for Texture finishing Dust it would be one to look for.

One of the differences that I applied on two occasions by using different product with different ending that I start off with this combination.

Combination 1)

I used Gelastic with its effect of level 4 strong hold firm grip applied on my hair then end it with Dust It . . .

By applying small amount of it onto my palm with soft matt effect that holds my hair texture very well that make it looks like incredible volume.

With my combo 2 I am ready to rumble for my day to hang out with my friends but one thing I realize and feel that it would be much better by this combination 4-Play and Dust It.

With my combo 2 I am ready to rumble for my day to hang out with my friends but one thing I realize and feel that it would be much better by this combination 4-Play and Dust It.

4-Play which have medium texture control which is mouldable that I can reshape my hair anytime and by adding dust it as finishing touch it had created more natural feel by my hair looking more volume, natural and holds on better.

Combination 2)

I used OSIS 2 – Mess UP to gel up my hair to the style I would love it, as with level 2, the effect is softer and my hair looks natural but add on with Shine Duster it had created the effect to another level as I shake gently before I use by sprinkle small amount onto my palm and work onto my hair. Then to my surprise for the finish it add shine onto my hair by more natural look.

Although I would not have the ability to style till like the professionals, but with the product are easy to use with instant end result is something that I have been looking for, no doubt that Schwarzkopf Professionals range is very much of my preferred choice.

When the first part of Step Up hit the cinema, me and my friends been crazy to find some instructor to teach all those Hip Hop moves but then for local dancer it wasnt up to our expection and we didnt not continue after that time and now Step-UP 3-D gets more groovy and event hotter dance move with combination of modern Hip Hop, ballroom dance Tango and some classic Oldies move.

One of the thing that caught my attention alot in the movie was all those great shoes by Nike that I wish to own them a few. With those Nike Dunk High, Zoom Air, Mid Cut ahhhh..talk bout shoes of that kind I am just into it!

If you love dance movie, this sure would blast your mind off with their final match that we could not imagine with those kind of effect. For me, this is definately a highly recommended movie by me and by the way, I watch it in 3-D. Best more effect is to sit middle row and behind as my friend got us VIP seats the very first front row.. Would be a bit headache.

On the way heading there, we took the MRT and change to LRT/ Monorail to head to MaoKong which is one of the last 2 stations on the very end of this line, MRT Taipei Zoo Station and walk about 5-10 minutes to the Gondola station.

Big clear roads. . . .

If you feel your shop need more ‘ONG’ then you can import the whole big lucky cat infront of your shop.

The Maokong Gondola (貓空纜車) is a gondola lift transportation system in Taipei, Taiwan. Opened on July 4, 2007, the Maokong Gondola runs between Taipei Zoo and Maokong. The total length of the line is 4,030 meters. The facilities of the gondola were contracted to the French company Poma. (source from Wikipedia)

The fare charge as above.

The full ride to reach the top takes about 10-15 minutes ride, so sit and just enjoy the overview of it.

While we are waiting for the gondola it feels like we are going up to Genting which had similar scene up the hills.

Camshot inside the Gondola.

Scenic view on the way up.

I just love this shot by ah Pak that I have edited a bit on.

Reaching the peak of it and seriously we are roasted by the temperature of 38 degree and no wind, felt like we are in the sauna. This is their tourist information counter with a very friendly staff manning it. One thing for sure that I spoke mandarin with the gurl and she reply us in English. I guess she is train to speak in English to most of the people up here but one thing for sure, we came up here in the wrong season, as there is nothing to see and its pretty quiet during Summer time. As we were told by one of the locals there is that the best Season to come up here is Spring with flowers blossoming everywhere and tea leaves is fresh and green.

According to the tourist info map we got, this Tea House is one of a famous tourist area that you can enjoy your afternoon tea while looking at a beautiful scenery.

The place is well decorated with the sound of the waterfall makes the whole ambiance so natural that its so relaxing to sit in here to dine or for tea.

More like a very traditional Chinese Heritage area with wooden floor and ceiling, a mini Koi Pond and waterfall, private room area with ceiling fan that keep the whole place very cool and relaxing.

Private room that I felt that its back to those Chinese Emperor era.What is missing that girls wearing like the princess.

This is what we can view from our scene which is the most perfect room that we have requested. Only 3 rooms are available with these scenery.

In this restaurant or Tea House there are a basic surcharge for Tea that I cannot really remember. If order set lunch or ala Cart menu then it would be waived.

Nice tea set.

The tea leaves that we ordered is Kuanyin Tea which is much strong in taste and very yellowish that I love my tea to be and some of them prefer mild tea therefore another one would be Oolong Tea. Mild in taste yet aromatic aroma.

This is how we enjoy our cup of tea from the hot burning sun as we were so comfort and thinking of going out is just so hard. Wish we could stick here longer and definately will be visiting here again during Spring if there is a chance.

Going back down to business district area and next area is 101 Taipei which did known as one of the tallest building in the world.

We reach the place pretty early around 3pm and there are still some stalls setting up but most of them are already selling like hot cakes. One of the reason that the residence are unhappy about this about the traffic is cannot deny that this TTDI Pasar Ramahdan is quite impressive with its size of the bazaar is big, circulating the main middle area of shop houses.  It will be start off with the stretch in front Popeye towards KFC and to Shell end, more like a retangular shape. You Imagine yourself how big it is.

this post will be more on pictures on this lovely Pasar Ramahdan.
