citylikeyou — Cashbox — Taipei by Ting-Ting Cheng

Taipei / Bar

Cashbox is a chained karaoke business. Unlike the karaoke in Europe, usually located in pubs, for people who are brave enough to sing in front of other strangers. In Cashbox, we show up as a group of friends, we have our own room with screen, computer, and microphones. We order whatever songs we like from the computer, then the music videos show up on the screen and we sing along! It’s a great place for relieving pressure.

Taipei / Shop

One of the best shoe shops in the world. (well... at least for me haha) You could customise your own leather shoes by authentic leather and different material soles by 6 steps they design, and there's not only leather shoes but also leather sneakers! For Chenjingkai is a curator, graphic designer and artist himself, the shoe office also collect lots of art books and graphic design books for visitors, you could read some of these books while visiting the shop. Don't miss out on this shop when you visit Taipei city!

Taipei / Park

It might be a bit exaggerated to compare it with central park, but it is also a green space in the city centre. (Just a bit smaller.) It’s around my neighborhood, again, so I have a lot of childhood memories with it. I remember teachers from elementary school always brought us there, for field trip, which is only one block away. And I also had my graduation photos taken there. Nowadays, I go back for jogging often.

Taipei / Cafe

My favorite cafe in Taipei. For friends gathering, gossiping, discussing, it is more about just having a lunch. The meals are wonderful. I cannot remember how many times I sat here.

Taipei / Restaurant

Hidden in the small alleys of Minsheng District, this small Japanese joint is quaint with warm lighting and comfortable wooden chairs. Get a taste of homemade Japanese food, with set dishes revolving around entrées such as pork shogayaki, vegetable soup curry, or shiso chicken rolls.

Taipei / Shop

Also known as "camera street" cause the whole street is full of nothing but camera shops. I used to buy films and have film developing services There. The photo was taken on my way to camera shop.
