下午两点二十分,由吉隆坡国际机场乘搭中华航空(CI722班机)直飞台北。傍晚七点抵达目的地台北桃园机场,台湾旅行社代表在出境出接待我们,直奔台北市三星级“城美酒店”入宿。
21/2/2011(星期一)
在酒店用过简单早餐,早上八点旅行社代表到酒店接我们出发。今天的行程比较轻松,早上到位于台湾岛北端的“基隆港”,这里是台湾的海洋渔业基地。接着到“野柳地质公园”,这里的地质受海蚀风化形成柔感线条美,岩石的纹理更是特别。海蚀与风化等力量下,经千百万年的交互作用,千姿百态、鬼斧神工的海岸景观,是北台湾最富盛名的地形景观。
下午,我们继续往另一个游客最爱的景点--九份。这里早期因为盛产金矿而兴盛,矿坑挖掘殆尽後从而没落。1990年代後,因电影《悲情城市》一片於九份取景,九份的独特旧式建筑、坡地以及风情,透过此片而吸引国内外的注目,也为此小镇重新带来生机,目前已经成为一个很受欢迎的观光景点。
22/2/2011(星期二):
台湾小食历史悠久,种类繁多,价格大众化。今天是这次行程的主要目的,早上九点踏着电视节目《食尚玩家》的足迹,到老旧却充满活力的“东门市场”寻小食。
短短几个小时品尝十家推荐小食,能够在此立足数十年,各有所长。下午一点离开东门市场,前往乌来看土族表演,晚上再到龙山寺、华西街及101大厦,充实又满足的一天。
23/2/2011 (星期三)
清晨五点由酒店出发,乘搭早上八点二十分起飞的航班CI721回吉隆坡,结束四天三夜的“食尚玩家台湾小食自由行”。感谢马来西亚亲善旅游有限公司精心策划,让这次的行程顺利完成。
1) 港点名店:兴记食品这一家店经营3代50多年,林青霞的心头爱。不论是人气或规模都是数一数二,算得上是东门市场的指标名店。港式点心、水饺、包子馒头、叉烧酥、萝卜糕、烧卖等港式点心,口味和用料不输茶楼,价格大众化。
2) 罗妈妈米粉汤台北市金山南路1段144号旁巷子进入
市场地址:台北市信义路二段81号
电话:02-2351-3352
营业时间是从早上7点到下午3点
罗妈妈的米粉汤采用细米粉,汤头以黑毛猪的大骨熬四五个小时,再混合煮猪内脏的汤,加上客家风味油葱,米粉汤已经煮软了而且入味;滋味鲜甜。吃米粉汤,少不了要来几盘土猪的内脏黑白切(黑管是猪肚,白管是猪心上面的大血管)。
罗妈妈教大家一招,把桌上的蒜茸酱油、辣椒酱、客家醋和酱油膏调在一起,沾黑白切吃,美味程度又连升三级喔!另一种招牌小食是猪肺,罗妈妈说经常全市场肉摊的猪肺都被他拿光了,还不够卖呢!
3) 烧腊-东门鸭庄 在此屹立不摇28年,很多东门伯伯阿姨很自豪说这家是他们这辈子吃过最好吃的烧腊店。
老板说他们选的肉以及用料,质量都是用最高级的,加上细心的料理才会这么好吃,像招牌的烤鸭,要选90天大成熟的鸭子,用八九种香料腌过,吊起来风干一天再烤,所以吃起来是腊味足、皮酥脆。
4) 利隆饼店营业时间是从
早上7点到下午1点半
老板娘从小就在西门町的中华商场学做饼,而中华商场走入历史后,搬来东门市场也经营了21年。虽然店面狭小、招牌老旧,地点又在市场最深处,大叔大婶大包小包的狂扫货,还有网友说,有时没打电话先预订就来现场买,还会空手而回呢!
5) 福州鱼丸汤-义芳鱼丸店开了40多年的福州鱼丸名店,听说连烹饪大师傅培梅老师生前也是老主顾。每天老板娘在店门口现包、现煮、现卖。
福州鱼丸最经典的就是重口味的肉馅与Q弹的外皮,老板娘说这丸子里包的是猪后腿肉、虾仁、荸荠、葱花混合成的内馅,而皮是用海鳗鱼和番薯粉打成鱼浆做成,一咬开,淡淡的油气鲜香从丸子里蹦出来。
6) 荣昌油炸食品营业时间:8AM-1PM(周一休息)
位于大路边,古早味的台湾炸料,种类繁多。有酸菜丸、菜炸、红糟肉、红糟鳗、炸排骨、炸旗鱼、芋头丸、鸡卷、甜不辣。
7) 传统小吃 赤肉羹+鲁肉饭从早上8点开到晚上7点,三餐时段全都包中间不休息。
立足25年,凭的就是料多味美!
老板说他们的肉燥是用切碎的三层肉和猪皮下去熬,而且有撇掉多余的油,所以卤肉饭吃起来香而不腻。
肉羹汤用上好的胛心肉,沾裹用鲨鱼和旗鱼打制的鱼浆,加上笋丝、柴鱼片及香菇,老板亲手捏制,现煮现卖。
8) 老牌甘蔗汁台湾盛产甘蔗,这家“老牌甘蔗汁”小摊已经在市场开了40多年,一个古早味的冰柜是生招牌,最特别的是甘蔗汁加柠檬汁。
9) 芝麻酱烧饼-清真马叔饼铺营业时间是早上7点半到下午4点(周五休息)
来到东门市场绝对不能错过这家“清真马叔饼铺”。这家芝麻酱烧饼开了将近50年。
芝麻酱烧饼香味从旧旧的小屋子传出来。以手工制作的烧饼,咖啡色的外皮沾满白芝麻粒,馅料有香浓的芝麻酱和花椒粉。煎过后再放进烤箱烘烤,味道特别香。牛腱肉白白净净,酱香浓郁没有腥味,夹进烧饼一起吃最适宜。如果怕单吃烧饼会口干,可以点一杯桂花酸梅汤喝!
10) 东门豆花营业时间是从早上7点半到下午两点半
午饭时间和假日也是常客满的豆花店。只卖冰豆浆、冰豆花和加了姜汁的热豆花,33年来从一碗3元卖到30元!老板凌晨起床亲自磨豆浆煮豆花,当天做当天卖绝不放隔夜,纯手工纯豆浆制作,没有掺豆浆粉、洋菜粉、香料、防腐剂,不会轻轻一搅就支离破碎。配上熬煮了3个多小时的花生及炒过的纯二砂糖熬煮的糖水,自然香甜。

We left KLIA by China Airlines and arrived at Taoyuan Airport around
7p.m. The Taiwan tour coordinator greeted and guided us to hotel.
21-02-2011 (Monday)
It was a simple breakfast at the hotel before guide took us on morning tour to Keelung, known for its marine life. And next to Yehliu Geopark, famous for beautiful rock formation.
Afternoon was meant for a tour of Jiufen, a town built along a hilly range and noted for its gold mines. The industry has lost its lustre and shine and it was during 1990, that the beauty of this place was captured in a film. Attention was soon focused on it and there was no turning back in popularity.

We tried many snacks at East Gate Market in Taipei.
Our stomachs heaved with food as we made our way to Longshansi temple, the Wah Si Market and Taipei 101.
23-02-2011 (Wednesday)
Left the hotel early morning at 5a.m. for an early flight back to Malaysia. Thank goodness there's a gym nearby home for all the foodie track we have sampled.
1) Hong Kong dimsumHong Kong dimsum at Hing Kee did offer authentic usual yum char fare.
2) Loh Mama Meehoon SoupThe bowl of fine meehoon had a soup base using black skin pig bones as an ingredient which was simmered for four to five hours, and next offals were added in. This must be a Hakka dish as it was accompanied with side dishes of pig's tripe and pig's heart slices.
The trick to this noodle dish was to mixed in the garlic sauce, chilli sauce, Hakka vinegar and soy sauce thickener together. This condiment went down well with us as it gave the dish an extra ooomph.
3) Roast ducksThis reputable 28 year-old roast meat shop offered us the best tasting roast ducks. Apart from roasted intestines, they served liver filling intestines, you can be assured of consistency and quality, an important hallmark ingredient here.
4) Spring onion pancakeA landmark highlight here was the spring onion pancake. You could taste the beautiful filling of lean meat, cabbage, spring onions and superior stock being very flavourful filling or try the other variety of carrot shreds, prawns or white radish shreds and chives, which could be just as delightful.
5) The Fookchow fishballsThe Fookchow fishballs are done daily so freshness can be assured. The skins are made form eel flesh coupled with sweet potato flour whilst filling comprised of lean pork, prawns, Chinese waterchestnuts, spring onions.
6) Deep-fried snacksMany varieties of traditional Taiwanese deep-fried snacks sold here.
7) Meat broth & meaty braised riceHow could we missed out on traditional snack like truly impressive meat broth and meaty braised rice which were not oily but very flavourful. Braised duck eggs, pig's blood curd cake, oiled beancurd could have you hanging around asking for more.
8) Sugar-cane juiceThis 40 years-old drink of sugar-cane juice with lemonade was worth a try.
9) Muslim flaky skin biscuitsMuslim snack of sesame seed paste baked flaky skin biscuit's with a version of minced beef as filling was best enjoyed with a sour plum drink mixed with gui hua flower.
10) Taufoo fahHome-made taufoo fah was done with no preservatives and had a smooth taste drenched with syrup and softened nuts topping.
