A Hidden Gem Choice For Dining Out

Do you want to dine out but don't like crowds? Then a hidden gem cafe is a right choice for you. Those are places worth visiting but not too crowded. Not a trending crowd favorite, but like first hidden, there are a few points that make the place worth a visit.

In this blog, I will invite you to dine out at a recommended place. This place is not being noisy because it is not so popular among cafes in the middle of the city. But quite worth a visit.

KYIV BARBER AND COFFEE can be a choice for dinner or even lunch on your busy day in downtown Binjai.

From the outside, it looks like a typical shop building, but you'll see

Most other people are more looking for the atmosphere than the taste of the food served at dining out. At least that's the case in the city I live in. And it's really hard to find a place to dine out that actually has good food that meets my expectations.

That night, I looked for a place that wasn't crowded. In particular, a place where we can park our car. Some of the places that I have visited with friends are quite crowded. So we just passed the places we had visited before, then looked for a place that suited our destination at that time.

Finally, we decided to stop at ”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE”. Huh, Barbers? Yeah, you guys read it right. The place we visited was a barbershop, as well as a cafe. So from the outside, it looks like a typical shop building.

Located in a shopping area in Binjai City, ”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE” became a hidden gem of a cafe that was beyond my expectations. The interior design is quite attractive and comfortable.




Choose the Second Floor for the Recommended Space

The first floor ”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE” looks more ordinary than the second floor. On the second floor of the cafe building, there is an interesting mural art to create a pop and modern impression in the place.

So actually, on the second floor, visitors can get what they need for a photo booth (at least that's what young people in my city need now, they prefer to take pictures, rather than enjoying the essence of the place and the food itself).




At first, I did not intend to document my visit that time. But it turned out to be a pretty good place, with good lighting. Finally, I created content! It would seem a shame if I just skipped over to not document the place and the menu that satisfied me that night. :)




MY DINNER

794C180B-ACE9-4934-B8E0-4F4AD4CED295.jpeg

What are my options for dinner? ”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE” provides Indonesian and Western food. I haven't eaten since noon, so my stomach feels like it's going to reject the rice at that time. So I chose Chicken Cordon Blue.

The portion served is quite filling. The part I love is their salads and salad dressings. Fresh and crunchy.

One more thing, they serve something unique. Even though they already serve french fries, they still serve potato chips as a compliment. That's a super portion! I like that. For sure!

For the main part of the menu, the chicken and cheese in the flour are delicious, with the right doneness. Luckily, it all tasted good and exceeded my expectations for a non-Indonesian food menu. :)

Hot Lemon Tea With Honey

For drinks, I chose “Hot Lemon Tea With Honey”. In my opinion, there is no other drink that can provide a perfect relaxing effect than Hot Lemon Tea when the body is tired and the mind is very tired.

If I want to choose coffee, I usually drink hot coffee when I want to work again. If it's just for relaxation time, I choose "HOT LEMON TEA WITH HONEY".

”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE” serves a large serving of Hot Lemon Tea. That's good!

ENJOYING THE NIGHT

Accompanied by a large glass of Hot Lemon Tea, I enjoyed a slightly not-so-good night actually. But I tried to create a satisfying side of myself that night.

I try to forget for a moment the bad things that happened that day. I realized, I also have the right to feel calm, even if only for a moment in that place.


THE PRICE

For a total of USD3.5.




Well, overall, ”KYIV BARBER & COFFEE” is a decent place to spend some time even if you are alone. :)

Is it Binjai City in North Sumatra Province? Very close to where I live in Lhokseumawe (Aceh).

Hot lemon tea with honey, a refreshing drink that is healthy and very appropriate if we want relaxation!!

Salam hangat dari saya di Lhokseumawe, mbak @anggreklestari 🙏
