Helloooo from Taiwan!

As I sit here in my hotel room, looking back on my week so far, I have to admit -- I feel pretty darn lucky. I'm here in Taiwan on a media tour for work, which means that I get to spend one week with a personal tour guide filming all of my experiences: catching fish in Pengshu, interviewing a famous Taiwanese opera director, getting a personal tour of the Mu Jing museum, and eating delicious gluten-free food. I know this type of experience is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so I'm truly soaking in every moment.

But of course, I have to share the food I have eaten so far! Above -- a local meal of fish and rice on one of the Pengshu Islands.
A hot pot meal at the Ju Ming sculpture museum ( I stayed away from the soy sauce dipping sauce).
A chilled, sweet mushroom soup at he Ju Ming sculpture museum.
And, he's no Henry, but I sure do adore this guy. His owners feed him uncooked noodles and he seems to love them.

I'll be sure and write an extensive post when I get back!

All the food looks great, it will be interesting to read more about the gluten-free foods there.

Thanks Jenny! It was a blast. I'll post all about it soon.

It was super tasty Emilia. I'm hoping to replicate some of the recipes I ate there.
