Being alone, exploring new places alone, especially where to eat is always my favorite. For me, by exploring certain things alone, I can make more sense of things. Unlike when I was traveling with other people, it would be difficult to find what I would want.
Indeed, I would do plans to go out with friends if I really wanted to spend time with them. So I no longer mix my personal desires. It would be purely a mutual desire to have fun with them.
So, if I want to fully realize my own desires, I prefer to go out alone. Maybe a lot of women who can not go alone. In some groups, some even mocked me because they thought I had no friends and that it was embarrassing to travel alone in public. But, for me, it is not so. There are times when I travel alone, there are times when I meet friends, and there are times when I travel with my lover and family. Everyone has their time, right? So not even if all the time we have to go out with someone else.
For me, by daring to travel alone, I am more aware and understand what I want myself to be. Then, I take full responsibility for myself. I don't depend on other people for anything that could disappoint me at any time.
Traveling alone will not be fun without enjoying my favorite food. Chili, chili, chili! As if my mind always knows how to say satisfaction which means I have to look for spicy menus. :)
I went to The Coffee Crowd which is a mall in Binjai City in the city center where I live. I can't count the number of times I've visited this place. This place is still on my list of favorite places to eat and hasn't changed to this day.
Indeed, The Coffee Crowd which is classified as a pricey restaurant among other restaurants in the same mall location. But it also tastes the best among other restaurants according to my version. So I don't feel disadvantaged at all even if I have to pay more money. The experience of taste is hard to find and it is worth it if we get it. So paying more would also include thanking those dish makers.
I chose the HOT PLATE KWETIAU menu. Topped with pieces of squid, as well as a thick, spicy sauce, it all gave me a chill sensation. I got my moment. :)
For me, this kwetiau (rice noodles) served on a hot plate for long-lasting heat, is the sexiest taste and that's thanks to the chili!
I'm also grateful for the orange juice mixed with carrots. It tastes better than just orange juice. This is my new favorite drink inspired by my mom's favorite.
This juice is served with separate sugar. So the sweetness will be adjusted by the customer, not the restaurant. I appreciate this way of presentation. :)
What a perfect me time, before I do many other activities with my coworkers. There will also be many surprises in my life that I will soon share with you. :)
