Breeze & Strawberry Mochi

Inspired by Eve's entry, I decided to buy myself the strawberry mochi as well!

I got mine (no doting hubby to buy for me to I hunted them down myself haha) from the famous Breeze Center Basement Food Hall. Speaking of this foodcourt, let me rave about a bit...
Only1 word to describe it: ATAS
Everything here from the bread to the groceries are gourmet, mostly imported from Europe leh!
Breeze Center is also the perfect place to catch the perfectly coiffed & botoxed Taiwanese Taitais in all their glory. Biggest diff betw Taitais & the ones I see back home? The Taiwanese ones comes in only 1 size: ZERO. Hate them.

Jealousy aside, Breeze Center is one of the more interesting malls I have been in Taiwan. Although I could only afford to shop in the Food Hall, it's was still fun to walk around & gawk. Most of the malls in Taiwan prefers to go "Jap", but Breeze brought in a lot interesting European brands, most of which I've never heard of. (I saw the most stunning pair of creamy nude patent Mary Janes!! Unfortunately it was going for NTD9500...can pay my rent!)

Anyway, back to my mochi: Bought 2 types, one is the standard mochi skin, the other with glutinous rice skin. They are both delicious! And yes just as Eve described, i can SMELL the strawberry as i cut the open!


If I have to choose, I'll go for the glutinous rice skin one. I like the texture of the skin. Yup I ate both ALL BY MYSELF. Burp.

PS: yah lah yah lah I give on the diet liao...
