I am exploring Taipei by MRT stations - getting off the stations and discover good places to eat, see, do and buy things on foot.

Met up at Madam Ang KK cafe at Parkway Parade (now conveniently at the doorstep from Marine Parade MRT station).

So, any new option is welcome. Hence, I was eager to check out Madam Ang KK. Turns out that Madam Ang KK is now one of my preferred options for in-mall coffee break.

Sharing here my personal experience from exploring JB food by bus and on foot. It is inexpensive, most places can be reached for less than RM3, but requires considerable walking and waiting, so it is not for everyone. One option is combining bus with private hire i.e. Grab.
