Second Day in KaoHsiung (Sunday); going to breakfast.
Stopping at DongShan Rest Area ...on our way to ChiaYi City.
In the town of FanLu; where I ate the best chicken in Taiwan (my opinion, of course.) This restaurant is setup along the side to a road, next to the owner's house, in front of his farm. This place is famous for smoking their chicken with Longan Wood. The bowl of noodles below is served with "drippings" of the chicken collected in a pan at the bottom of the large clay-pots. The noodle was so simple but oh-so-good!
The owner was a friend of Vicky's parents; gave us a tour of his backyard garden. And offered us some "grapes", that grew on trees.
LuGang Township.
Eateries in Lugang.

Pasadena Bakery: The chef from this bakery won some World Competition a while back, with his "Walnut-Longan Round Loaf Bread". There is so much hype, to try his winning bread, customers must pre-order 2 months in advance because he only makes a certain amount per day.
View from the Tuntex Sky Tower; very hazy day.
