Chi Lin Nunnery and Nanlian Gardens

We had a really nice drink of tea and coffee mixed at Tak Tou Cafe instead of our regular coffee. Warrick started his morning later from being exhausted the days before. He met us at Tak Tou at 11am.
We went for another beef brisket feed at Sister Wah before heading to ChiLin Nunnery and Nanlian Gardens.
ChiLin Nunnery and Nanlian Gardens were serene and manicured. All the plants looked like they were trained to grow a certain way.
After a quick shop at a shopping centre near the nunnery, where Warrick and I bought clothes and not Kai and Ruby, Warrick found a place to have drinks before dinner. He picked the bar at St Regis Hotel. It was wonderful to finish the trip with cocktails and nibbles at such a fine establishment. We were even invited to a special champagne tasting tradition where the champagne cork is removed with a sword everyday at 530pm.
We then proceeded to a restaurant highly recommended by a friend, Sang Kee Restaurant to have braised pomelo skin, "mui choi chee yoke" and suckling pig.
It was a grand finish to our trip together as Warrick and Kai were leaving us tomorrow morning to stay at Disneyland hotel.Read more
