The most impressive food at this trip !
As soon as I got to Shuanglian station, I went straight to this shop having blue signboard.
As far as I know, everyone who visited Taipei enjoyed this shop without fail.
Pinsan
The shop’s name “冰讃” means “delicious ice” 🙂
As its name, they serve shaved ice !
This shop is so popular among Japanese tourists. And almost all people in the shop seemed to be Japanese :p Japanese words can be heard here and there.
They are open from the end of April to October only.
One of my reason to visit to Taipei is this shop 🙂
They take our orders at the desk and they handle exchange card having number to us. After they prepare our foods, they call our number. Number is called both Japanese and Chinese. At first they call number in Japanese and then call again in Chinese because almost all people who visit there is Japanese :p
And many Japanese who visit there order this shaved ice.
Mango Xue Hua Bing (芒果雪花冰, $NT120)
I hadn’t eaten such a delicious shaved ice having mango. In Japan, we can’t eat so much delicious mango because it is expensive. But in Taiwan, this shaved ice can be eaten just $4 because Taiwan is warm all year around. Inexpensive !
By the way, when I visited there, it cost us $NT120. But I know now it cost us $NT100. About $3.5 !
I’ll stay at hotel near this shop next time for visiting this shop two times a day … !
To tell the truth, I visited this shop and ate it the next day, too :p
