Many of you probably remember our friend from Taipei, Janet. She and her sister, Jennifer, were in Taichung for the day on Thursday and decided to give us a visit. It was so great to see Janet, and this is the first time we met Jennifer. They have three other sisters and one brother! We took them to our favorite resturant in the village where we live. It is one where the cook makes the meal in front of you, similar to the Japanese restaurants in the States, but much more casual and not as much food per plate! (plus MUCH cheaper - all 4 of us ate for less than $15 US - Milly stayed at the house with the boys)
This is a picture of us taken by the lady who runs the restaurant.
This precious lady, the matriarch of the family who runs the restaurant, affectionately called "Grandmother Chen" always waits outside. Her job is to talk to people who walk by and make them comfortable in chairs outside if they have to wait for a seat. One time Page reached out to touch her shoulder when we were leaving, and she grabbed Page and hugged her. She said, "Please come back often! Please come back often!" - so we try to do that!!
