Breakfast - Breakfast in Taiwan is slightly different from that in Singapore, US or NZ.
First, our (Hannah and I) favourite breakfast store is by the road side. Cars and bikes would pull up to the shop, hop off (while cars and buses are waiting patiently on the road), get their breakfast and drove off... the Taiwanese version of drive-thru!..
Second, the type of breakfast. My favourite is the pig intestine vermicelli and a cup of warm milk tea. Hannah's favourite is EVERYTHING! :D.. they have buns, fried carrot cakes, dumpling, soya milk, rice dumplings etc.
Third... the shop opens at 5am in the morning, and is constantly busy (sometimes I wonder who comes at 5am in the morning for breakfast!) until about 12pm, and then they are closed. They do their cooking and washing in the same place. Hannah was joking that mom would say this is a recipe for food poisoning if she saw how they are washing their bowls and cups in the dirty water by the side of the road.
