We have agreed to meet for a long time. But we have not been able to meet, even though this cannot blind dates ‘cause we will discuss organizational issues, not actual blind dates.
She chose Le More on Jalan Panglima Nyak Makam, Lampineueng, Banda Aceh. The capital city of Aceh Province which is located in the westernmost part of Indonesia has many cafes and romantic places. One of them is Le More.
The name is like a restaurant in Western and is romantic. I often cross it, but never stopped. To enjoy coffee or other food in Banda Aceh, there are still many other places that become the most delicious coffee choices.
I don't know why he chose Le More. Maybe he often hung out at that place or there was another reason. I didn't want to find out, but at the end of the meeting, I found out.
With a TV journalist I waited at Le More because I arrived there first. It wasn't Sunday night, so I wasn't just a few people sitting there. Enjoy various types of drinks. The choice of coffee is indeed not an option there.
The coffee is including a very common drink, can be enjoyed in a variety of settings. Maybe people choose a very special drink that is more representative of a special atmosphere. And special feelings.
I chose a mojito with fresh mint leaves. It's a drink that will make the relief burn and make the heart cooler.
I can not wait in silence. I writing something while waiting. She came about an hour later.
Le More is a container cafe with an attractive and romantic interior—in my opinion. Some of the walls are painted black with some black and white art photographs hanging on the wall.
It's not as impressive as gray, but rather classic. With a flush of dim lights in several corners, a romantic atmosphere can be awakened.
Visitors can choose various places in Le More with different concepts. In the front, the seat is made without a roof, so that visitors may be able to see the moon and stars while eating. But it can't be used in the rain compilation up front. And sometimes a bit noisy with the sound of vehicle engines.
For romance, a table inside is highly recommended. Want to sit on a sofa or wooden chair, it's up to visitors. "There is also a place above," says a waiter.
“No, we were inside.”
Well, now about food and drinks. As the name implies, Le More provides Asian heavy food such as rice with various types of side dishes, and also European food.
While waiting, we ordered banana cheese. Sweet bananas fried in flour, then sprinkle with cheese on top. I think it's a suitable food for waiting and dating. Not too heavy, not much fat for dinner.
After talking around for almost two hours, then we separated. Before dispersing I asked about hers home, she said behind Le More. No wonder!
I didn't take a picture. I do not know whether he agreed to be photographed or not. But I thought, we were too late in our business, so forgot that part. []
