Taipei offers you many great things to be enjoyed. Yet, sometimes we need to take a distance from it because of its hectic dynamic environment. On the other hand, it is hard to get a long holiday here. Our best option is by capitalizing our weekends. We started looking for a close city to visit and Yilan caught our eyes. It has many bus/train services available and can be reached within an hour from Taipei. So, it is surely a good option for a short vacation.
In Taiwan, especially in Taipei, it is very easy to find Japanese restaurants. However, it is a little bit hard for us to know which one is worth our money. If you haven’t spent enough time in Taiwan Taipei, a long queue in front of one restaurant can perhaps trick you into thinking that restaurant offers a very delicious (or cheap) foods and worth your money. First, we also think long queue in front of a place means that specific restaurant/shop has something special (price, taste, or any other thing). Been here for quite a while, we reconsider our thought and now believe that Taiwanese just love to stand in a line. Ha! Back to finding Japanese restaurant, several months ago we went to this restaurant, called Watami (和民) and we have revisited it several times since then. What’s so good about it?
