The Man in the mask - Harajuku Street Fashion SNAP
Do you remember Kadochi, the man who stand out with his accessorized outfits who always wears a mask? Every month Kadochi changes his style a little.
FASHION POINT: Hanging from his waist is a whole collection of collectibles, toys and merchandise from old-school tv shows.
See you again tomorrow for another Japanese Street SNAP fresh from the streets of Harajuku by YouTuber Cathy Cat
Whenever I go to Tainan and tell my friends they are jealous, In a good way. If Taiwan is a cake, then Tainan is definitely the cherry on top. And sorry, I won’t mention all the beautiful places to visit here. Also - I will skip the fabulous historical part. I will go straight to the point - FOOD!
Recently, I was invited by the Bureau of Economic Development, Tainan City Government and NCKU Research and Development Foundation to a 3-day trip, and visited 20 shops. You can always count on the kindness and hospitality of the Tainan people. But don't worry, If I was invited, my camera was invited too, and that means I did my best to show off those places, and now I will pay back those nice people, and I am going to invite you on the trip too; are you ready?
PART 01 - When in Tainan, eat as the Tainanese do! - A guide to flavorful, popular (and English speaking) places serving Tainan food!
Taiwanese food is just extraordinary. Everybody loves it. No doubt about it. But now, you need to know that Tainan is the oldest city in Taiwan and because of that - the variety of foods is richer here than anywhere else. So I will introduce a few places around Tainan where you can get local food. So take your chopsticks in the hand and let’s commence our mouth-watering journey around Tainan!
子龍點鴨 (Zi long dian ya)
As a person born and raised in Europe, I am not really used to eating ducks the way they are usually served in Taiwan. I don't really like messing with bones. But here was a great surprise! They prepare meals removing bones. They sell duck with dried noodles or rice, and also have plenty of side dishes, too. The most special one is duck feet with cucumber, which is really good. Another thing is - the restaurant is located in a typical Tainan style neighbourhood near the old street, so after the tasty dishes you can stroll around there for a while.
磨磨茶 (Mo mo cha)
It’s a chic tea house waiting for you in one of the narrow streets downtown in Tainan (walking distance from the train station). The owner showed and let me make my own matcha from dry tea leaves. Usually tea shops are supplied by whole suppliers (importing tea in bulk). However, this is not the case here - the owner’s family has run a tea plantation for 3 generations; you can taste and say - the tea flows through his veins! They serve a whole variety of delicious teas from Taiwan, for instance: high mountain green tea, oolong tea, tea with fruit juice, milk tea, and more.
The place has stunning interiors that are simple, but you can feel a Taiwanese coziness inside. Momocha is a great place to sit and relax, read a book. Just enjoy your gourmet teas and let time stop for a while.
Apart from the teas and drink you can also find here food, such as Gua Bao. If you speak a bit of Chinese you will know that Han Bao (漢堡) is a word for hamburger. Basically, it's a burger but instead of bread they use a steamed bun. If you are in Tainan it's a must try. :)
禾記嫩骨飯 (Hé jì nèn gú fàn)
This is one very special Chinese restaurant. This place is particularly famous in Tainan because it’s already become a chain. Actually, the dishes are very simple - such as rice and meat, but…. the devil is in the details, and in this case it’s the special way they prepare their meats. Of course, that's the chef's secret, but they're delicious. The flag dish is braised pork with soft bones. And indeed the bones are so soft that you can easily eat them! Apart from that you can find other dishes, such as Braised Pork Noodles.
三船熱炒100 (三船の鳗丼 Sānchuán de mán jǐng)
100 stir-fried Taiwanese traditional food. You can see a lot of places with number "100" on the street in Taiwan and especially at night there are crowds feasting there. The number 100 in the name is not an accident here - it’s the price of most of the dishes on the menu - around 100$. Apart from Taiwanese delicacies - such a pig heart, intestines and so on, you can also order typical Japanese meals - such as freshly made sashimi, sushi. It’s worth mentioning that the owner is an eel farmer, so if you love this kind of fish, you will find great quality unagi here!
This is one of the five stories that are coming soon. Feel free to ask any questions you have, feel free to share and tag friends that haven’t been to Tainan… never, or not recently, and need to go there with you and… and…. and make sure you stay tuned because there are more stories coming soon!

一直忘記分享這2篇個人報導: HYPEBEAST x HYPEBAE x StarsXu 中英文版都出來啦!!!🤙🏾🌎🤙🏾
😅但這標題實在壓的我不敢扛..., 及每次專訪都會提到NoLimitsFunの起源來自暗網(Deep Web)。

Perhaps one of Taiwan’s biggest fashion icons, Stars Xu –buyer, model, stylist and designer – has not only made a name for herself on social media, she also owns one of Taipei’s most popular streetwear shops. Stars is also a mother of one, and frequently posts pictures with her adorable son on her Instagram with a following close to 100,000.
We recently caught up with Stars to chat about everything from her successful business, to her love for movies and makeup. Read on for our full interview, and check out Stars’ shop NoLimitsFun here.

How did you first get introduced to streetwear and street style?
I always loved music when I was young, and I’ve even been a drummer at a bar before. However, it wasn’t until I went to university that I started to learn about fashion and the huge influence that music has on clothes and design. I suppose listening to different genres of music is the biggest reason why I always change up the way I dress, ever since the beginning.
If you had to describe your style in three words, what would they be?
Movie characters, culture-inspired and era-based.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How did you get your idea for your shop, NoLimitsFun?
I actually came across the name when I was browsing the Deep Web a while ago. It was the name of a secret group – just the sound of it made me feel uneasy and a little creeped out. However, I really think that fun and happiness is the foundation of everything we do. As long as a group of people work together to create happiness, they can reach the ultimate happiness. The store’s Chinese name of the store is created for us by some Bozosoku (someone from a Japanese motorcycle gang) guy from Hokkaido.

Omurice or omu-rice (オムライス Omu-raisu) is an example of yōshoku (a Western-influenced style of Japanese cuisine) consisting of an omelette made with fried rice and usually topped with ketchup. With omu and raisu being contractions of the words omelette and rice, the name is an example of Gairaigo. It is a popular dish both commonly cooked at home and often found at western style diners in Japan. The dish was brought to Korea during Japanese rule, and today it is a fixture on gimbap restaurant menus throughout South Korea, where it is rendered as "오므라이스 (omeuraiseu)" in Hangul. Omurice is also popular in Taiwan, another territory formerly occupied by Japan. Children, in particular, enjoy omurice, and it is often featured in okosama-ranchi or kids' meals.
Omurice is said to have originated around the turn of the 20th century at a western style restaurant in Tokyo's Ginza district called Renga-tei, inspired by chakin-zushi.
It has been featured in popular culture such as the Japanese film Tampopo and the Korean TV series Rooftop Prince, and more recently in the manga Shokugeki no Soma.
The Pacific geoduck, scientific name Panopea generosa, is a species of very large, edible saltwater clam in the family Hiatellidae. The common name is derived from a Lushootseed (Nisqually) word gʷídəq.
The geoduck is native to the west coast of North America. The shell of the clam ranges from 15 centimetres (5.9 in) to over 20 centimetres (7.9 in) in length, but the extremely long siphons make the clam itself much longer than this: the "neck" or siphons alone can be 1 metre (3.3 ft) in length. The geoduck is the largest burrowing clam in the world. It is also one of the longest-living animals of any type, with a lifespan of up to 140 years; the oldest has been recorded at 168 years old.
The large, meaty siphon is prized for its savory flavor and crunchy texture. Geoduck is regarded by some as an aphrodisiac because of its phallic shape. It is very popular in China, where it is considered a delicacy, mostly eaten cooked in a fondue-style Chinese hot pot. In Korean cuisine, geoducks are eaten raw with spicy chili sauce, sautéed, or in soups and stews. In Japan, geoduck is prepared as raw sashimi, dipped in soy sauce and wasabi. On Japanese menus in cheaper sushi restaurants, geoduck is sometimes substituted for Tresus keenae, a species of horse clam, and labeled mirugai or mirukuigai. It is considered to have a texture similar to an ark shell (known in Japanese as akagai). Mirugai is sometimes translated into English as "giant clam", and it is distinguished from himejako sushi, which is made from Tridacna gigas.
失われていく昭和の時代を肌で感じる大都会のラーメン屋台…『幸っちゃん』の銀座での営業に初訪問しました！虎ノ門での営業後、銀座に移動され朝方お店じまいされるところまでを密着で初めて撮影させていただきました。天候状況など（特に雨）で出ていない時もありますが、大抵は平日20時半くらいから25時半くらいまで虎ノ門で営業し、その後は銀座まで移動し朝方まで営業されているそうです。東京の街をずっと見てきたおじさんの人生がつまった屋台の貴重な様子をご覧ください！
＊撮影に際しては、お店の方や周りのお客様に充分配慮して撮影をおこなっています。

I visited the old style ramen stall "Sacchan" in the big city where you can feel the Showa era for the first time after refraining from doing so! As the number of food stalls is steadily decreasing due to urban development etc., this time I visited again to capture this nostalgic scenery in a video. The place has moved a little from the previous place, but the uncle is still fine! This time, I moved to Ginza and took a picture of the place where the shop was closed in the morning for the first time in close contact. There are times when it is not out due to weather conditions (especially rain), but it is said that it is usually open at Toranomon from about 20:30 to 25:30 on weekdays, then moves to Ginza and is open until the morning. Please see the precious appearance of the stalls filled with the life of the uncle who has been watching the city of Tokyo for a long time!
