Wish I could walk outside right now to get some good street food! This shot was taken in Chiayi (a city in southwestern Taiwan) back in November. I loved how we passed by all sorts of food stalls while walking down a random street.

Never thought I'd rave about Pizza Hut, but I'm constantly craving the seafood pizza 🦐 in Taiwan! After one bite of this crispy, chewy crust with surprisingly fresh ingredients, I instantly regretted not buying the largest 🍕 size!⠀ ⠀ It seems like American fast food in Asia tends to taste much better than what we get in the U.S. 🤔

I've been enjoying the benefits of working from home 💻 during this pandemic, but staying in all day makes me feel sluggish. This Fudgy Mocha Latte snack bar from @eatyourcoffee helps me get through my afternoon slump. Each bar contains 80 mg of caffeine ☕ and is made with natural, ethically sourced ingredients. Now I can have my coffee and eat it too! #eycspring #eatyourcoffee

I've been stress eating lately, but it's probably more important than ever to eat healthy and stay active! I've been supplementing my smoothies 🍓 with @getregulargirl's prebiotic fiber & probiotic blend to keep my #guthealth in check.⠀ ⠀ Use discount code ADINEAWAY10 for 10% off your order (link in bio)! #getregulargirl #gifted

Thinking about the day I get to travel again! The organic, nutrient-packed energy bars from @kates_real_food are perfect for fueling my adventures. I may finish my entire box of bars while sitting at home though! 😅⠀ ⠀ It's crazy how only three weeks ago I was flying out of state, then driving cross country with my husband. It was our last travel adventure 🛩 and weekend of eating out before returning to LA the same night the county issued the order prohibiting dining in at restaurants. We order takeout 🥡 now and then to support local restaurants, but it's just not the same as going out!

What's better than ice cream, cake, or boba? A dessert that has all three in one, like the Matcha Iceberg from @milkcow_la! The combination of matcha sauce 🍵 and chewy boba ⚫ with ice cream 🍦 over an airy chiffon cake 🍰 makes every bite irresistible.⠀ ⠀ They are currently open for takeout and delivery!

One of the top things to do in Taipei 🇹🇼 is to visit the Liberty Square, a historical landmark home to the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, National Theater, and National Concert Hall. I wonder what it's been like lately at this square that normally hosts many public events and gatherings.

I went to @matcha.village for their drinks and desserts, but ended up devouring this savory Orange Duck Crepe (don't worry, I still ate and drank a lot of sugar during my visit)!⠀ ⠀ They are currently open for take-out and delivery! 🥡

The Rainbow Bridge 🌉 in Taipei is the perfect spot for a stroll after filling up on street food at the nearby Raohe Night Market. Swipe to see some of the delicious and cheap eats! Now that I'm stuck at home for the next month or so, I may finally find time to sort through all my travel photos 📷 from the past year! These are strange times, but I'm going to make the best of it.

Pasta alone is delicious enough, but topping it with fresh burrata adds another layer of flavor and texture. I especially love the hearty but fresh bh-olognese 🍝 at @burratahouse!

Sunrise at Angkor Wat 🏯⠀ ⠀ I'm not an early riser, but I had to get up for at least one sunrise 🌄 while visiting the Angkor temples in Siem Reap!

Authentic Cambodian food 🍲 I don't even remember what this dish is called (we asked our tour guide to order dishes that locals commonly eat), but this 🐷 soup tasted delicious and comforting after a long morning touring the Angkor temples!⠀ ⠀ Travel Tip: If you want to taste food that the locals in Cambodia normally eat, ask your tour guide or tuk tuk driver to take you to a restaurant where you will also pay for their meal. This is what we did on our last day in Siem Reap.⠀ ⠀ It's common for tour guides and drivers to take you somewhere that only tourists and no locals dine at. They do this because the restaurant gives them a free meal as you are dining in the main room.⠀ ⠀ So, we ended up at a local restaurant where we had a true Cambodian meal. We still got charged an inflated tourist price, but it was money better spent!

I'm not an avid hiker, but I do try to squeeze in a hike or two whenever I travel. This short and fairly easy hike up Elephant Mountain ⛰ ends with a gorgeous view of Taipei 101!

I need a triple order of these negi toro and blue crab 🍣 hand rolls!

This feels like such a long week even with Monday off. Time to unwind with some premium, smooth sake 🍶 from @tippsysake! Use discount code ADINEAWAY for $10 off your order.
