WhatE>ER / Florida bakery at Shin Kong Mitsukoshi A8, B2

Located under Shin Kong Mitsubishi A8, I was blessed to have the chance to try this seasonal strawberry pastry. The custard and the crispy pastry skin together with fresh strawberries....yum yum yum! I went back a week later, and sadly, found out it was just a seasonal pastry and they didn't have it anymore. Boohoo~~

If you are in the neighborhood, try their garlic bread loaf. They can cut it for you and when you get home, throw it into to oven before consuming.... Finger licking!

From left to right:
1. New Orland smoked chicken
2. French ham sandwich
3. Strawberry jam crepe
4. Sunshin scallion waffle
The Sunshin scallion waffles were delicious, especially dipped in the (sherry vinegar mayonnaise) cream sauce that came with it. The waffles were salty and tasted like a mix of green onion pancakes (蔥油餅) and Shandong cake waffles (山東大餅). They taste the best when still warm. Yummy!
The second dish that came to our table was the French ham sandwich. Actually we ordered the French tuna sandwich, but apparently the waiter messed up the order and gave us the French ham sandwich. The sandwich came straight out of the oven and was filled with ham and an overload of warm melted cheese...Mmmmm! After tasting the salty and warm dishes, it was time to try the cold and sweet dishes.  
The crepes of both of the New Orland smoked chicken and the strawberry jam were cold. Although they were still a bit crispy and hard, we were a bit disappointed. The smoked chicken was mixed with some greens and bell peppers and wasn't very special. 
The strawberry jam was home-made jam, which was nice, but we still thought the crepe itself was kinda blah. So if you haven't been here yet and you are planning on visiting, my recommendation would be the Sunshin scallion waffles and the French sandwich.
