Goodbye New York, New York. Hello ATT 4FUN!

Close to Taipei 101 there used to be an area called New York, New York. There was a movie theatre, Western restaurants, and lots of designer shops. In the past 3 years they've totally revamped that area and renamed it ATT 4FUN. Not sure what it means, but there is still a movie theatre, Western restaurants and designer shops BUT there an exciting new addition - beautiful rooftop patio, Sita, overlooking 101!

Ming and I met her friend Tass there for dinner. We grabbed drinks and some snacks on the roof while we waited for our table to be ready at Rama, the Thai restaurant downstairs. Rooftops and patios in general aren't very common here, as daytime temps during the summer can be crazy hot and humid (average daily humidity of about 80%), and when you're not sweating, you're getting wet from the rain (works out to about 15 rainy days a month). So needless to say, when you get a great rooftop, it's cause for excitment!

Despite the fact that there was TORRENTIAL downpour for a few hours in the afternoon, our cusioned seats were dry - thanks to the massive umbrellas!

Forgive the poor picture quality, but this is just to give you an idea...

Mmmmm our pumpkin curry at Rama (so Taiwanese to take pics of food, but come on, it's cool!)


Infinity pool on 10th floor - pool party next weekend there!
