We loved that place. The building was stunning, and all those quirky innovative dishes were so cool! A real work of art.

Kettles ready to go for new guests at the Jiuofen Teahouse.

The Jioufen Teahouse is just gorgeous. A beautiful old building restored and fitted out by a local artist. All the touches show someone with a real esthetic flair has put thought and time into this. Beautiful wooden benches, charcoal fired ceramic water pots - just perfect.

It really is. It makes me happy because I love good coffee and hate bad coffee! And Chiang Mai for sure - we had some fantastic coffee there with some impressive "latte art".

McVities Digestives - the world's most ubiquitous biscuit. There is hardly a supermarket in the world that doesn't carry these things!

That's the biggest goldfish I've ever seen!

(Yes I know it's a koi).

Two new birds to the life list yesterday - including a couple of these handsome black crowned night herons. Not exactly in a natural setting as they were busy stealing bread that was being fed to the koi in a park 😂

Taiwan is famous for it's tea, but also has a thriving specialty coffee scene. High quality coffee is grown and processed in areas that produce quality high mountain tea. That quality supports many specialty coffee shops with great single origin bean choices.

Although a polarizing figure in Taiwan's history, there is no doubt that the memorial hall and grounds dedicated to Chiang Kai Shek are impressive in scale and grandeur.

The traditional with the modern. The Chiang Kai Shek memorial hall in the foreground with the Taipei 101 tower (formerly the world's tallest building) in the background.

Our last coffee shop in Seoul was one of the best. The layout was great allowing views across the road to Gyeongbokgung Palace and a busy street to people watch. Coffee was excellent too!

Today's Konfusion dish for lunch was a bulgogi and kimchi sandwich with 24 month aged cheddar on toasted nut and fruit sourdough loaf.

It was pretty damn good!! 😋
