First Stop: Sole Salon
To truly embody that cool American "hot girl" vibe, you need a fierce braided hairstyle! That's why we recommend a stop at the retro-chic Sole Salon before your day begins, to get an absolutely amazing "hot girl" hairdo.
Sole Salon, located on Ximen Road, is a sophisticated salon housed in a renovated old building. Its vintage decor and Kyoto-style courtyard are truly eye-catching. The American-style braids they create here are the highlight — they're so cool and edgy! Remember to book an appointment in advance to discuss your desired look with the stylist; their skilled hands will bring your vision to life.
Sole hair salon is located in Tainan's West Central District, near the Guohua Street commercial area…

Second Stop: ABC BURGER
Classic American diners with their iconic red-and-white decor are a staple of many American TV shows, and we've found a spot in Tainan that brings that vibe to life! Stepping into ABC Burger, you'll feel like you've walked onto a set. Both the interior and exterior are incredibly photogenic, and wearing bright colors will make your pictures pop!
We ordered the Peanut Butter Beef Burger, the Chili Con Carne Burger, a milkshake, and an American-style root beer. The food was delicious and hit the spot, and the milkshake perfectly captured that rich, authentic American flavor. The service was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. Overall, we highly recommend checking it out!

Third Stop: Roller 186
An American retro-nostalgic vibe absolutely demands a roller rink! With disco music, classic red accents, and a black-and-white checkered floor, it's practically an MV set. The main roller skating area spans about 220 pings, with high-top seating for spectators, a bar lounge, and a locker and shoe-changing area. Every corner is filled with thoughtful design touches.
Quad roller skates are more stable than inline skates or ice skates, making them easier to pick up and less prone to falls. Gliding hand-in-hand with your date is incredibly romantic and perfect for a date! Girls get free admission on Wednesdays for "Girls' Day." Keep an eye on their fan page for occasional discounts and special events.
Roller 186
- Address: 7F, A2 Building, No. 358, Section 1, Zhonghua East Road, East District, Tainan City
