Yuan Ze University

Welcome to the main gate of YZU :D
you can walk safely in pedestrian way. but not that safety for me, many dogs around especially at nite, i hate them:(



The logo of YZU.
the left building is IM dept., which is my department. and the right side is MBA dept.


The other logo of YZU? mybe! not sure about this one.. actually we can see some writing in chinese character on the flip side of this stone. i just dont know what it means.

The library and linguistic department.
usually we can see people at the veranda up there doing some painting, but i took the photos so early in the morning today, so no one's there. and we can go up to the rooftop of this..


The main building. OIA (Office of Int.Affairs), ILCC (Int.Language & Culture Centre), electric department, and meeting place for international students.




Chemical building.

Favorite scene. I always use this way to walk from the dorm to my building.


Baseball field.
Field for football team players and for those who like jogging..
they also have other facilities; gymnasium, swimming pool, basket, badminton, and tennis court.
The dormitory.
it was a little rain when i took this picture. Anyway all student's activities usually held around here..
My room XD. it's for four people. but one of us prefer to stay outside campus. so now only me and 2 Taiwanese roommate. they are both very nice. upload our picture later;)

Halal food in Taoyuan

Yep. I kinda hard finding halal food in Taiwan, since it is not a muslim coutry.
So I got these lists of halal food in Taiwan from my friend, but I have no idea of how to get there, what the place looks like, n the most important is, the price!
Here, I start writing my own review for the first place I visited. Since I live in YZU campus which is located in Neili, I start my journey from the nearest place, Taoyuan county.


ALI BABA`S INDIAN KITCHEN
2F, 86, Minsheng Rd., Taoyuan City, Taoyuan County
TEL:(03)336-0882
www.ali88.com.tw

Train station : Taoyuan
Bus: No.1 Jhongli - Taoyuan route


We were cycling from our campus to Neili bus station, then from there we only need to take a bus no. 1 (Jhongli - Taoyuan bus, as you can see at the picture below)


The bus will bring us to the place, about 30-40 minutes


The alternate way is by train, it will only take 10 minutes, Neili to Taoyuan train station, then walk to reach the place (please change your location on the maps to get new direction)


 So here we are.. Ali Baba's Indian Kitchen

The sign of Halal food

The restaurant itself is actually on the second floor.


Take a pic of the menu, they serve lot of dishes; barbecue from indian clay oven, indian breads, muttons specialitist, vegetarian specialitist, dessert and more. The price range for main dish: NT280-450. Well yes, the price is quite expensive.
This salad is free anyway;)


The only food we can afford at that time, Roti Prata for our main dish (the price is NT50-90)
The funny story when we ordered this prata,
the man said "really? is that enough for you??"
us : yeahh...
man: NO! u shoud try this one, n he's pointing his finger to Tandoorl Mix Grill, one of barbeque menu from indian clay oven, it's good.
(we'r looking at the menu, n the price is as good as it sound, NT450 :P)
us : aaaaahhh.... but no thankyou, that's enough;)

Samosa for NT.130/ 3pcs


Enjoying the luxury of indi nuance ...

Start enjoying the meal
...
Overall, the taste is good for me, but the only matter for us is that the price is a bit expensive for students like us.. mm..not so much i can tell here about the food,..
But i'll try the other halal food in Taoyuan. Let's hope the taste n price are both good.
