Alright so last year I had a chance to visit a very fancy restaurant and it was invited by a friend of mine. She was not very close to me however at that time we reconnected and after a couple of minutes of talking with each other somehow we hit it off again and she would like to have a gathering with me again and we also had a friend in common and yeah I connected with the other the other one and together we went to the dinner together with my friend and it was a restaurant located at the center of Hanoi City. The decoration was really amazing, it screamed awesomeness. When I first stepped inside the interior didn’t cease to surprise me too. It was decorated in classic style but it still looked very modern so somehow I could say it is like a fusion of modern and classic style. It creates a very indescribable feeling for people who step into it. When it comes to dishes and food serving for us, I was really in awe of the menu and different kind of dishes over there. We have different kind of things ranging from traditional dishes to luxurious European style dishes. We ordered traditional bowls of pho which was very traditional rice noodles in our countries and the taste was exquisite in the sense that I had never tried anywhere else before. We had a very good conversation and the atmosphere around was really supportive like everything was really in sync and we just wanted to stay over there enjoying food and having a conversation. We didn’t want to leave. We sat until like 10 p.m. because the restaurant closed pretty late and finally we had to say goodbye and we went home and until now it is still a very unforgettable experience for me every time I think about it.

Alright, so last year I had a chance to visit a very fancy restaurant, and it was invited by a friend of mine. She was not very close to me; however, at that time we reconnected, and after a couple of minutes of talking with each other, somehow we hit it off again. She wanted to have a gathering with me, and we also had a friend in common. I connected with the other friend, and together we went to dinner with my friend. It was a restaurant located in the center of Hanoi City. The decoration was really amazing; it screamed awesomeness. When I first stepped inside, the interior didn't cease to surprise me. It was decorated in a classic style, but it still looked very modern, so I could say it is like a fusion of modern and classic styles. It created a very indescribable feeling for people who stepped into it. When it comes to the dishes and food served to us, I was really in awe of the menu and the different kinds of dishes available. We had a variety of things ranging from traditional dishes to luxurious European-style dishes. We ordered traditional bowls of pho, which are very traditional rice noodles in our country, and the taste was exquisite in the sense that I had never tried anything like it before. We had a very good conversation, and the atmosphere around us was really supportive; everything was in sync, and we just wanted to stay there enjoying food and having a conversation. We didn't want to leave. We sat until about 10 p.m. because the restaurant closed pretty late, and finally, we had to say goodbye and went home. Until now, it is still a very unforgettable experience for me every time I think about it.
