I spent the Labour Day weekend break at Taipei. It was so unfortunate the flight got delayed from 8pm to 11pm and I was waiting on the plane. The reason for the delay was due to the amber rain warning in HK.

We woke up in the morning and went to eat soya bean and fried dough for breakfast. We then went to buy cheese stick. We went for lunch again at the Osaka teppanyaki restaurant. It was so delicious. We then went Sogo for shopping. We went back to another Misukoshi near our hotel for shopping. We went to another night market at night for dinner.
Tips
Upon arrival at the Taipei airport, should buy a phone card with unlimited data internet usage and some free minutes of voice call. The price is reasonable, about TWD500 for 5 days. It's at the left hand side of the main exit of Taipei airport and it's called Taiwan Da Ge Da.
