Our Prof. introduced us to eat in this restaurant named 鳳山鹹米苔目(Fengshan Salty Mitaimu). He said that it is a very famous one around the area. You will recognize the store easily for there is a big picture of the owner lady with President Ma inside the store.
Mitaimu (米苔目) is a kind of white rice noodles, some people refer it as similar to Vietnamese Pho, but in my opinion it's more similar to Locupan (老鼠粉). The choice of the Mitaimu is dry or soup, Flying Ace and I chose the dry one but later we're a bit regret when we saw the soup one coming, it seemed to be more tempting... haha. Overall the taste is just average for me, the only special thing is that they put a lot of crispy fried garlic on it which tastes good, but other than that it is just similar with other Taiwanese food in my tongue (OK, you can just blame my tongue!).

Our teacher also bought us the fried stuffed bun sold at the stall next to this restaurant, they said that on weekends you have to queue to buy it. The stuffed inside the bun is quite juicy with strong appetizing smell, even more delicious when you eat it with the chili paste.

The price is reasonably cheap, for the Mitaimu small portion is 35 NT and big portion is 40 NT, while the fried bun is 9 NT each. So, if you're craving for some local dish, try it!
The address is 高雄縣鳳山市維新路１０號 (No. 10 WeiXin Rd., FongShan City, Kaohsiung County). I guess you can walk along the ZhongShan road (中山路) from the Fongshan MRT Station until you find the crossroad to this WeiXin road. They open from 06:00 to 21:00.
After the meal, we were continuing the journey of the day to Wei Wu Ying Metropolitan Park not far from FengShan Night Market area (you can get off at Weiwuying MRT Station and go in from the Sanduo entrance). There is a cultural show performed by Yunnan Arts University (雲南藝術學院) that night. This kind of show is totally not my kind of unwind. I like the idea of the outdoor stage with a nice lighting under the half-moon, but I wish for something jazzy performing. That would be just perfect for me.
In fact, the performance is mixture of Chinese arts like high note opera singing, traditional instruments play, traditional dance or even tribal-kind dance, etc...
It's a good show tough (the costume is so well-prepared) and even our Prof. said that the show is way better than the one offered for the tourist if you visit Yunnan. Talking about visiting Yunnan (I put the wiki link here), it has three places as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, two for natural sites and one for cultural site. Hmm, interesting right?! So, Yunnan anyone?
