My Favourite Place In Bandung

Back, back, back :)))
It's me again, tired as I was, just back from Citos after having a fun day out with my friends. And here I am, in front of my dearest laptop and ready to write type!

This assignment is about making a descriptive text and I wanted to describe other than the usual describing topic, so I decided to describe the place I love the most in Bandung. The place's called The Valley. It is one of the most beautiful place I've ever visited!

What is The Valley anyway? Why do I love to go to this place? Well, The Valley is a bistro cafe and a resort. By bistro, it means (in its original Parisian incarnation) a small restaurant serving moderately priced simple meals in a modest setting (looked it up in Wikipedia.com :P) but it is actually a bit more like an open bar to me. They served a variety of food in that place, but the light and semi-light meals are the best (in any kind of situation. you'll know what I mean if you keep on scrolling down the page). It opens everyday all day long but the best time to visit it is when the nightfall. Or if you prefer different atmosphere, you can try having a brunch there.

The Valley is located in Jl. Lembah Pakar Timur 28, Bandung, DAGO with the telephone number +62 22 253 1052 (I don't know the exact address, so I have to look for it in the Internet. I only know it is located in Dago, but I figured out that maybe you will need a full address in case you're interested in visiting it and the telephone number if you want to make a reservation). You won't miss it because that place has a gigantic name plates.

It is usually pretty crowded knowing how popular it is these days. If you want to have a great spot while dining in, you need to book for it first. The best place for you to be seated in this restaurant, is the spot near the clifside. From that place you can see the panorama of Bandung at night, covered with thousands of lamp that looks like an ocean of stars.

The Scenery Of Bandung From The Valley

What's so special about this place is, its atmosphere and scenery. Every single night, The Valley is bright and stunning with thousand bulbs in every corner of the place. There is a big cyprese in the middle of that place and also covered in bulbs. I think you should see it by yourself to see how beautiful that place is. And the atmosphere, it is so breezy out there and so...romantic. With a beautiful scenery and great music with great food, it is a perfect place to launch a dream date, hahaha.

About the food, and why me and my family prefer light food like appetizer and dessert and pre-main course to the main course itself, it's because the food there are relatively expensive. Not only because it is expensive, but the true mission my family and me brought to that place is to sit back, relax, enjoy the scenery and not to dine in. So we usually order some tea, cappuccino, assorted cakes, shortcakes, soups, pastry to warm up the night. And it beats the main course as well. We tried a steak in the other night but we promised ourselves to not order it again (do not ask why). Another great food for you to try is the pasta. Lasagna, spaghetti are also a wise choices with good taste as well. My dad's friend said that the wine are not pretty enjoyable but we couldn't judge it because we do not drink.

Last topic before I end the post, is I'd like to describe about my favorite cuisine in The Valley. It is.....The Zupa Zuppa Soup!

My Favourite Cuisine In The Valley :)))

I'm pretty sure that you have already know this kind of cuisine, even already taste it before or just like me, have fall in love in this cuisine, but this one is really really different. It is much more creamier and softer than the other zuppa soup I've tasted before. It's sweet and salty and creamy but it doesn't make you have a nausea either. This thing is one of the reason I keep going back to The Valley. The pastry (or some of you guys called it 'the bread') on top of it, has the perfect level of crustiness (whoo, i made my own word) and blends very well with the soup. Well basicly, THIS is something that you mustn't forget to try as soon as you visited The Valley.

Other than The Zupa Zuppa Soup, I also love the Chocolate Cheese Cake and Hot Cappuccino but somehow I feel a strange ingridient in it. My dad said it was some kind of rhum (but not rhum) that people use to add if they live in a cold area, but nevertheless, they are awesome as well. I have to end up my post because it's getting dark and I need to have a rest, please. So I'm leaving. I hope this count as a descriptive text. (I planned to write a descriptive text but in the middle of the text-building I get carried away, haha. My bad :P)

Have a great weekend Blogger! :)
