Lumbung Rasa

Lunch time ! :D


This past few days, I'm staying in Bandung. Somehow, Bandung is such a lovely town. I love to be here; spending time at the gym, going nowhere, or doing the things I love. Anything but going to campus..

On this holiday, I'm having a pretty similar schedule every single day. I usually start the day by going to the gym and get sweat. And then, I'll be looking for a place for lunch. Most of the time, I go to a random resto which I find from the internet (usually foursquare). After that, I'll go home and doing stuff like watching TV, playing games, reading, knitting, or any other time consuming activities.

Now, what I'm about to tell you is about a resto which I've known for a quite long time but I never tried. This resto is located not far from home. Here's the story; So that day, it was rainning at noon and I decided to wait until the rain stopped. The rain finally stopped at about 2pm. It's already passed my lunch time. I was about to go to Dapur Eyang, before I accidentaly passed in front of this resto. The name of this resto is Lumbung Rasa, it is located at Ir. H. Juanda Street No. 299, Dago (near Alfa Mart).

When I first walked in, I just loved the atmosphere. It's simple and traditional. They serve the food in a buffet. There are varieties of Indonesian food that you can choose. Beside the buffet, they also offer you the fresh seafood which they'll cook based on your order. Haven't enough? There is kinda coffee corner (warung kopi) at the front of the resto where you can order the light meals and drinks like toast and cappuccino.

The thing I love about this resto is they have it all in one package! They have the buffet, fresh seafood, and coffee corner. Something that make it more interesting is they serve so many kinds of traditional food in a modern concept of restaurant. You can find es goyobod, peuyeum, and even roti balok here! -Roti balok is a kind of bread that shaped like a balock which I first found at Pasar Lembang- And for me, there are one more added value and that's because they offer you 3 different kind of rice, white rice, brown rice, and nasi liwet. So, for you guys who prefer to eat the brown rice, you better go here because brown rice is kinda hard to find in other place..

Me? I definitely will go here again!

Coffee Shop - Me 'n You Coffee Pantry

Coffee, anyone?


Well.. I gotta admit that I like coffee. 
FYI, the word coffee comes from an Arabic word "qahwah". Coffee has many good impacts to your body -as long as you drink it in the right portion- like lighten your teeth :D But do not drink coffee too much because it contains caffein which is not good in the high level. In general, coffee divided into 2 main categories which are Arabica and Rhobusta. 

Unfortunately, I am not a coffee expert and am not going to tell you the theory of coffee LOL.

About one or two weeks ago, I found this petite cafe in Dipati Ukur (Bandung). How often do you go there? If you stay not far from this area, do you realize that there are small alleys along the main street? Yes, if you take a better look, you'll realize that there are alleys along the main street. And this small coffee shop is located just right beside one of the alley.

The name of this coffee shop is pretty unique, Me 'n You Coffee Pantry. Cute isn't it? :3
This coffee shop is not a big one. I can say this is pretty small, only one room, a pantry, and of course the tables and chairs. It is located at Dipati Ukur Street No. 68; right accros Citi Trans Travel. It is not hard to find this cafe if you really pay attention at the poster / name board.

The place is cozy enough for those who want to go out but don't know where to go, or people who are waiting for the travel. There's always music and they also have a TV, so it won't feel lonely. Like another coffee shop, Me 'n You Coffee Pantry offer you a variety of coffee drinks. Beside the drink, they also have sort of cakes / cup cakes, pancakes, and pasta. Unfortunately, this coffee shop is a smoking area. For those who are not smoking or are alergic to the smoke, this might be a huge annoyance. And they only have one air conditioner, so sometimes it feels hot inside (especially in the back rows with many customers). A tip for me is to sit near the pantry or near the AC ;) 

Wanna know more, check this out!

Right when you open the door,
you'll see the pantry.

Best Definition of Love

"I'm in love with you.."

That's a pretty common sentence, right?
But do you really know what love is? or it's just the sexual desire overwhelming you.. Hey dude, please don't say such a sentence or even the word 'love' without really mean it. At lease, you know what it is so called 'love'.

Everybody might have their own definition of  love. Love is such a powerful word because it is not just a word, but a word which embody a deep feeling. When you say "love", you're putting your heart in that word, too. It's beautiful how one simple word is able to describe a lot of feelings and expressions in the same time.

But, what is love literally? Or is there any literal definition of love?
I've read this for a hundred of time and still for me this is the best also the wisest definition of love. Here it is....

"Love is patient,
Love is kind.
It does not envy,
It does not boast,
It is not proud.
It is not rude,
It it not self-seeking,
It is not easily angerd,
It keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preseveres.
Love never fails."

- 1Corinthians 13: 4 - 8A

So, have you had such an unconditional and sincere feeling of love?


Hug & Kiss,

2012 or 2013

2012 no more!

Yeeayyy! We are entering 2013!

Were you having a great new year celebration? or you feel that new year isn't something soo special? Let's reflect the whole past year..

For me, 2012 is such a great year . I did soo many things that I never thought I will. Those crazy things, sweet moments, hard time, and plenty of experience that I won't forget. I also met new people. The people who colored my life, gave me thousands of unforgetable memories. There are also another people who became soo special for me. I didn't have any idea that they will be such an important people on my life; the ones who became my best friends, the one who left and those who stayed, the one who taught me many things and inspired me, the one who made me fall in love yet the one who broke my heart, and many other people..

Sometimes I feel that people come and go so fast. They only stay a while in your life, but meant the world for you. People whom God sent for giving you lessons or event changing your life. Those people who paint your life with their own color; make it as beautiful as the rainbow or may be as black as the darkness. I believe, you also have those people in your life. People who make you feel the feelings you can't deny.

So, how's yours? What is you best moment on 2012?
For me, there is no what is so called 'best moment' neither 'special event' because everything that has passed are all special. Every moment and every event were all so important for me. They gave me so many things to learn. Even every hard time, every tears and every laugh, every meeting, and every moment are the process for me to grow and be wise. So, they are all special; my real best moments. Don't you ever hoping for only the good time to make you a better person, but those time of pressure is the one who push you to be mature.

I don't know what's going to happen on 2013. I'm hoping for those great things to come, but I won't expect that there will be only the good things. I haven't made any 'new year resolution', as people say "the rules are made to be broken" so do the resolutions. It might be your guide that lead you to the right direction to achieve your goal, but sometimes it's just the commitment-at-a-moment that you forget on the very next day. However, that's your choice weather to make it or not, but at lease you have one thing that becomes you goal on 2012; one thing you want so badly and you work hard for.

My prayer for 2013 is what ever will be will be. Let those things happend in my life; giving me another lesson to learn and another experience to have. I am not praying that God will ease my problem, instead I pray that He will expand my capacity to face those things. Thus, I will be growing and have a larger capacity to do bigger things. Remember, those predator arround you are the one who keep you alive.

I hope you'll have one great year ahead :)


Love,


Delicia
