Lunch at 潮桂 鐵板燒 Tepenyaki (hibashi) Tasting Menu--Taipei

Address:台北市敦化南路一段200號（忠孝東路口, Taipei, TAIWAN)
Website:http://www.parentsrestaurant.com.tw/cate.html

I've never had hibashi/tepenyaki dining experience in the US, but according to my friends, the chef just had to interact with the dinners. I am not sure I will enjoy that. However, when you go to such restaurant in Taiwan, you never have to worry about that. Chef only prepares your food and asked you about how do you like to done or any additional seasoning. Other than that, you can still talk to your friends.

Oh Man! I haven't updated the blog for so long. I have been really busy with school and job searching. Plus, I was recovering from wisdom tooth surgery and that prevent me from eating real food (oh, so sad.) Thanks to my generous sister, she treated me to this sushi bar after my final dental appointment for wisdon tooth. This place is so good that I had to skipped my Boston trip with RCSIII and write about this first. (I'll go back to the 2 great place I went with RCSIII later.)

To be honest, I didn't know any players since I never watch WNABA, so I decided to cheer for Seattle since I loved the city and that's where Steve & RCSIII are from. But Before the game, we have to get dinner first.

蘋果派 Apple Pie

Although I have made apple pie many many times, I haven't made it after RCSIII and I started dating(and that was more than 14 months ago). The reason I didn't make it was because (1). I was too lazy too make the pie crust from scratch (2) RCSIII warned me that he almost dislike all the homemade apple pies by his family and friends. He claimed they all turned out too watery and the apples were under cook. (He likes McDonald's apple pie filling, if you'd like an example).
