After the weekend afternoon, the weather was clear, and the azaleas on the campus of National Taiwan University were in full bloom. In the third section of Xinsheng South Road near National Taiwan University, the Taipei Azalea Season series event "Happy Carnival" was lively last Saturday. The entire event was on the sidewalk between Wyen Hall and Truth Hall, with 40 stalls in the United Nations and the Little Fresh Cultural and Creative Market. The market was originally scheduled to open at 2 pm. At 11 am that day, people came to ask when the food stalls would start. The whole afternoon was accompanied by the performance activities on the two stages in front of Wyen Hall and Truth Hall, which squeezed the scene out of water. In addition, Xiong Zan appeared quickly, which led to another climax.

The blacksmith Hiroshima roast made on site is full of gourmet dishes, authentic Taiwanese black hair pork, eggs and specially customized Chinese noodles. It uses Japanese special sauce for delicious roast, which is very authentic. Before noon, many people asked, and the stalls had to start business early. When the market officially opened in the afternoon, it became a popular stall. When Xiong Zan appeared quickly, she dressed in a chef and also came here to play the chef, making gestures in front of the iron plate. However, the stall was almost crowded by Xiong fans. Chef Xiong Zan almost became the culprit of "striking the stalls" who helped the worse. He quickly went to other stalls to go on a tour. Finally, he barely bought the 3 stalls' product collection in the crowd and went to exchange for a rhododendron seedling to take home.
