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 / Cafe

Astar is a new café just opened around my neighborhood, and I am glad it opened! The decoration is cute, with lots of old furniture, including tables and chairs from elementary schools. The owner is only 29 years old, who had a dream of having a shop selling everything, so he started saving money since 15. It certainly brought a new atmosphere to the area, where is known for financial centre. Since the owner was a bartender at a famous bar in Taipei, don’t forget to order a customized cocktail not on the menu!

Taipei / University

All students of GCA love it here. Taking pictures, barbecue party, shouting, fireworks, stargazing... All the memory were made here. Unfortunately, the door waslocked recently, it is a terrible lost for the student of GCA.

Taipei / Park

I thought I was in fairyland the first time I came here. I have never been to such a natural place in Taipei. Cows, birds, mountains, a great meadow that you cannot see the end. This is my favorite place in Taipei.

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.
