Taipei 101

The advantage of going to Jiufen and Shifen with a tour group is that you don't have to worry about transportation at all, and Amy, the tour leader, is excellent, so the whole trip can be carried out with peace of mind. Although the trip felt very rushed with not much time or space to move around, it was a very fulfilling day overall.

We arrived at the Xinsheng branch around 17:50. (It was a busy time, so normally the wait would be 150 minutes, but since we had made a reservation through KKday, we were able to enter after only a 40-minute wait. We spent the waiting time strolling around nearby Yongkang Street.) When we handed over the voucher that we had printed in advance, we received a numbered ticket (with a number and designated entry time written on it). We were called exactly at the designated time and were able to enter smoothly. The restaurant has two floors, and we were seated on the first floor (the restrooms are on the second floor). Both the restaurant and the restrooms were clean and tidy. Since the menu was decided in advance, the food came out without much of a wait. However, because there are many people waiting during busy times, the staff comes to clear away the finished dishes as soon as you finish eating. We left the restaurant as soon as we finished eating. I would recommend this restaurant to people who can understand this point.
