Anyway, let’s tell you a bit about the menu highlights of Shihlin Taiwan Street Snacks…

Looks delicious doesn’t it? Read on for details…(described clockwise from left)

Crispy Floss Egg Crepe
A whole, fresh egg lightly panfried and topped with an imported spring onion crepe and topped with crispy chicken floss. The crepe is allowed to puff slightly to achieve a somewhat crispy exterior.

XXL Crispy Chicken / Happy! Ricebox Set
A large, tender and succulent piece of bone-in chicken breast, painstakingly marinated to perfection, coated with imported flour and fried to a golden crisp and sprinkled with a special blend of oriental spices. Or, have your XXL Crispy Chicken with a side dish of delicious, smooth cold tofu topped with diced century egg. A tasty Taiwanese style thick sauce completes the picture and the set is served with soft, fluffy short grained rice and your choice of drink for a fuller experience.

Handmade Oyster Mee Sua
A special stock comprising 5 core ingredients, brewed over a slow flame, forms the soup base for the imported mee sua. Only handmade mee sua is used for its superior flavour and texture and a generous amount of oysters and shredded chicken is added before serving.

Seafood Tempura
Handmade from seafood paste infused with secret ingredients, the paste mix is painstakingly kneaded and tossed until the correct consistency is obtained. It is then flattened into small pieces and scalded with hot oil before being cut into strips and deep fried. A sprinkle of our specially blended spice powder completes this delicious and crispy Taiwanese delight!

Not sure how to start? Here’s an idea of what you can try for (please don’t copy – this is just to give you an idea)

“With the English Premier League reaching an exciting climax and the Euro2008 football tournament commencing in June, I decided to join an online sports book. It’s much easier to bet online where you can type in you bets and view all the odds live rather than calling up some guy to get updated on prices.

I joined Ascot Sports after being recommended to them by a friend who places bets on their Asian Handicap markets. They are licensed in the Isle of Man in the UK and offer much better odds than some of the dodgier local bookmakers. You can bet on a variety of sports and there are many ways to deposit your money. It was so quick and easy to register and get my account funded. I just filled out a form online and transferred money from my bank account.

Ascot Sports actually deposited a £30/RM190/SGD90/RMB430 First Bet Bonus into my account for being a new customer. Woot! I placed it on Liverpool to win 3-0 tonight so if that comes in, the drinks will be on me. LOL!”

All you need is an internet connection in order to play online. My brother wanted to use my account to place a bet the other day because the cheapskate was low on credit on his phone. I got him to sign up to Ascot Sports via their affiliate program. Therefore by referring him to Ascot Sports I got paid a commission! Online betting is definitely the way to go these days and less risky than doing credit betting with underground bookies.”

Good luck!

Let us know too if you want to send us any presents…

- Network wide CPM ads for traffic from Japan (1 week) 165×240 Sidebar
- Network wide CPM ads for traffic from Australia (1 month) 468×60 Banner

Network wide ads for a country means no matter where you are based physically, you will earn from blog visitors for that country. As most of you might realize, the internet is global – and while your blog may appeal to mostly those in your home country, foreign visitors will be interested as well. Aggregated throughout all our blogs, currently we do have a significant amount of Japan and Australia web traffic, but we are looking to increase this further.

Those that will benefit the most from this campaign will be those who get a mix of traffic from these two countries, and also from the two countries we are most active in currently – Malaysia and Singapore. What kind of blogs would get this kind of mixed traffic?

From our observations, we would recommend the following type of blogs join:
- Blogs from enthusiasts of J-Pop, Japanese Movies and Anime Blogs
- Blogs of students studying in Australia. (A lot of Malaysian students go to Australia to study apparently)
- English language blogs on topics relevant to Japanese/Australian social life and culture

Campaigns will start in less than a week from now. So, do encourage a friend who you feel will fit the criteria to join. Do make sure that you have the 165×240 Sidebar and 468×60 Banner installed. Cheers!
