Din Tai Fung is a famous restaurant chain that originated in Taiwan. It’s known for its delicious xiaolongbao (soup dumplings).

I tried to eat here, but the waiting time was two hours, so I gave up and ate at the food court in the same area.

It was a big food court but filled with people.

I tried something familiar.

A building next to Taipei 101 is the Breeze building.

Inside the Breeze building.  The first floor has many stores.

The second floor has many coffee shops.

Adjacent buildings are connected by bridges.

Looking back at the Breeze building

The next building that I went to was the Att4Fun building.

The lower floors of the building have many shops.

The upper floors of the building have many restaurants and nightclubs.

People are waiting to eat.  I tried to eat at a buffet restaurant, but it was full for the day, and I could not eat there.

So, I went to a Korean restaurant in the area.
