This week I'm pretty beat up with all my activities and works. It's a kind feeling you are floating in the sky and your foot cannot step on the ground, confused and don't know what to do. But no matter what happens, life needs to keep flowing away while hoping the cloudy days who's always following me nowadays give up and my bright day will become.
Arrived at Seoul Area, I went to an infamous outdoor restaurant around Gangnam Area called Jardin Perdu. Jardin Perdu is the outdoor and indoor restaurant with the classic-elegant and romantic restaurant. Usually, people go to this restaurant for a blind date or a date with someone special. The ambience of the restaurant really romantic and quiet enough for dating, the outdoor area was very beautiful, but the weather quite windy that day so I decided to enjoy the indoor area.
From the indoor area, there is my favorite decoration which is the hanging peach clouds. It's really pretty and makes me hope my dark cloud will become that beautiful peachy cloud.
Okay then, let's order the food! I went to this restaurant with my 2 close friends, but we were really hungry, so we ordered 5 menus, which are Onion Soup, Salmon Salad, Seafood Tomato pasta, Beef Cream Pasta, Acciughe Risotto.
And for the opening, they served pieces of bread. Let's Enjoy!
First, we started with the Onion Soup, the plating of this soup quite unique and the taste was good. They place the bread in the top of the soup together with slices of Parsley. The taste was good, not really salty, but the taste of Onion not really strong, so it's not destroying the overall of soup taste.
Price: 13,000₩
Another starter was Gravlax di Salmone (Salmon Salad). Salmon has been always my favorite so I really enjoyed this salad. Besides the fresh salmon this salad completed with Arugula, Caper, and Tomato. The fresh salmon was dancing merrily in my mouth, make me keep eating this salad.
Price: 17,000₩
Mare Spaghetti (Seafood Tomato Pasta) was great! It was made mouth watering with the fresh tomato pasta sauce and perfectly cooked spaghetti noodles. It was blended well and tasty. Unfortunately, I have an allergy to scallop, but my friends said it was good. I think I would like to recommend this Pasta if you come to Jardin Perdu.
Price: 19,000₩
Gorgonzola Pappardelle (Beef Cream Pasta) was the best of the 5 foods I ordered! Usually, when I go to a restaurant I would like to spend sometimes to read a restaurant review. And the Gorgonzola Pappardelle has a lot of positive reviews, so I ordered that. When I tasted that the reviews aren't lying. It was good, the pasta sauce was great and they served the pasta with big pasta noodle which made this pasta more special. I personally like the texture of pasta noodles and not forget to mention the Beef Meat, it was tasty and tender. 5 stars for this pasta.
Price: 21,000₩
The Acciughe Risotto is Risotto made by Anchovy for the taste. Overall, the Risotto has really tasted "Anchovy" and I feel like eating an Anchovy porridge. Personally, it wasn't my favorite, but if you are fans of the Anchovy maybe this risotto can be great to order.
Price: 17,000₩

Seoul Subway Line 2 to Yeoksam Station (역삼역) exit 7 (NOTE: because of the restaurant quite far from the station by walk-around 15 mins, you better take a taxi to get there).
Overall, I really fall in love with the interior of the restaurant, the food was good but the price quite expensive. Yet, if you want to spend special time with the special person this restaurant is worth to try! And a little bit advice, you better make reservations before because sometimes the restaurant always packed with customers.
The dark clouds I have I wished I can kick that cloud away as soon as possible. I'm quite exhausted and sometimes feeling like everything was too much. But I always make a swear to myself to not give up when everything not happened as I want. I just believe, I surrounded by people who will be always loved me and never leave me alone. I'm pretty sure on the other side of the dark clouds is a bright blue sky. So I will be hanging here, keep trying and praying until the bright blue sky come. I hope you all do the same anytime the clouds pay a visit to your life, DO NOT EVER GIVE UP!
