il Giardino Romantico

The first time I saw hinlin, was the Chinese New Years before my departure for the UK. It has been such a long time since our last date. After returning to Taiwan, tt and I also arranged to meet since my relocation back to Taipei. This was the first time that the three of us were meeting. When I saw the link to the food review of the restaurant she booked for our lunch date, I was a bit surprised. It looked a bit posh! When I saw the menu, I was surprised yet again, at how reasonably prized everything was.

第一次見到hinlin是我去英國前的那一年過年假期。已經有一段時間沒見面了。回到台灣搬回台北後也約了tt見面。不過這是我們第一次三個人一起碰面喔！當我看到hinlin傳來的餐廳食記，我心裡想說：有必要吃那麼高級嗎？後來到了餐廳看到價位，又驚嚇到！這麼親民啊！

It was a very pleasant lunch, because the service was decent, the food was good, and both hinlin and tt's kids were extremely well behaved. I especially got along well with tt's daughter. We are assuming that it is because we have the same star sign. 

這餐吃的真的很愉快！服務不錯，食物好吃，hinlin跟tt的孩子們也都很乖！我跟tt的女兒（妹比）特別合得來。我們猜測是因為我們都是無可救藥的雙魚座～

天仙念：前一天有人問我周末有什麼活動？我說『見格友』。對方還是一副很不可思議的表情看著我。一方面是不太懂格友是啥，我解釋完說是寫格子認識的網友之後，緊接著又一副懷疑的眼神。當我說明我是要跟『兩個家庭』約會，才...
