2024- I will call you "The Year of Travel, Exploration and Adventure" as I traveled and explored more than any year in my life. A common conception in culture that–
In ordinary words, your first day decides your whole long year. I don't believe it, but I can not deny it as I have experienced it and have lived it. It is sort of real for me. May be, I believe in it, that's why it happened.
Memory from 16 December,2024, is going to be pen down. I am weaving memory in the beads of words.
A new restaurant got open in Islamabad. I scrolled reels and tik tok videos. In those videos, I was seeing "Breeze Santorini–Greece Themed Restaurant".
Fear of missing out was making home in my heart.
In my heart, I was calling - I should go there, I definitely should go there.
I was finding any reason, more specifically, a person who could go with me. Surprisingly, my friend visited me from my local village. He is not other than @moaz-sabir.
I can not pen down in words that how much I was happy to see my fruend with me. I always dreamt of having a stroll with my best friend.
It was his first visit to Islamabad, and that's why i wanted to show him something really fancy shamcy in Islamabad. For him, Islamabad is really lavish, progressed, and modernized city as it is the capital city of Pakistan.
We went upstairs to knock at the door of Breeze Santorini. Believe me, both of us were astonished to see the eye-catching decor of the stairs and roof. We both were expressing our happiness and excited with our long-lasting smiles and our "wow"
Seems like, We have used a hidden magical door through which we have entered Greece within seconds. I have watched a Netflix Series "Lock and Key" in which such a magical door exists. This is real when you come to Breeze Santorini. It looks out of Pakistan and so magical for eyes.
The special thing about @moaz-sabir and me is that we get more excited and happy than anyone else. We get mad easily after seeing any miracle. Life is simple, but sometimes we should wait for miracles.
We stepped inside and believed me. My mouth was opened. What else i could do? I might have jumped out of astonishment, but i tried to keep myself at ease and calm.
There are two type of sitting in the restaurant; One is outdoor where you can see the cave system sitting, Inspired by Greece Cave system and second one is indoor sitting where you will see flowers and eye-catchy decorations.
We sat inside. We were capturing photos of the restaurant, and the lips were unfolding conversation.
A waiter came and gave us a menu book. We scrolled the menu book. Everything was kinda expensive. Before even looking at Menu Book, I was determined to order pizza as their pizza was looking different from all other pizzas I have tried in the city. It was different even in menu paper. Though my friend was insisting on ordering something like Chinese Rice but I placed an order of Pizza.
Meanwhile, both of us were looking at the decoration and to the people sitting next to us. Ummm...hmmm, We weren't staring but just looking. The billing counter was really impressive to my eyes. It was a ship in water.
Our pizza stepped on the table. Forks were resting alongside. I unpacked forks and started struggling with pizza. A waiter approached;
Thank you—
I wrapped pizza. Ummmmm- it doesn't suit my taste buds. It is more like a tandori roti and chicken pieces on it. I am more in favor of other pizzas that we have in Pakistan. This pizza isn't suitable for me. Everyone has his own taste buds. I will rate it 6/10.
They served us one complimentary drink. That day, It was a pomegranate drink that was really good. It was 10/10.
We paid Bill. Overall, Breeze Santorini is a must visit restaurant because it has a really nice ambiance. On the other hand, I don't like their pizza.
After Breeze Santorini, We decided to go to Basha Istanbul Restaurant, which is also a new restaurant. It is having so much hype these days and also expensive.
We just went there to take pictures in Turkish designed photo booth. It is really beautiful that gives you a vibe of cultural Turkey.
See you next 💫
