il Giardino Romantico

Even though I had spend some time during my toddlerhood around this neighbourhood, I had no memory whatsoever of this place, or even ever hearing of this place. When I asked my mum, who had been the reason why I had roamed around here, she said she had very little memory of the place as well. The place had been made popular by the movie 'Monga', an award winning movie about gangsters. 

雖然小時候曾在這混過，但這個地方我倒是一點印象都沒有。甚至連有沒有聽過的印象都沒有。後來詢問錢媽，他也只問我：是在老松國小後面那邊嗎？但也說沒什麼印象。（因為錢媽太認真上班，照顧小孩了～XD <-- 狗腿的嫌疑）若非電影『艋舺』，這裡會變得像現在這麼有名嗎？
