So I chose the fish burger with the - yes, this is true - fried rice "bun" which turned out to be absolutely delicious though of course horribly bad for you but what I want to really point out is that it was the most expensive meal I had in Taiwan this time while yours in France was the least expensive. I ate really cheap in Taiwan, usually as someone's guest or at a student vegetarian cafeteria get SArah to describe them to you where you get marvelous five-grain rice and tofu served up in 57 varieties, all exquisite except when you arrive late and they are cold. Wright Sorry about all the awful typos in the first part of this response. Oh I should say that Starbucks is expensive too but I didn't eat meal there. It's more expensive when you lose your wallet containing passport, credit cards, cash, etc., but that is not on their menu so I guess I shouldn't blame them besides they were very nice and took a video of the thief who stole it while I wasn't looking as I should have been anyway.
