Hello steemians,

Today, I had a busy day full of emotions, since I spent a whole day in the company of my family, during which we decided to combine a gourmet lunch, a moment of relaxation around a coffee on the terrace, and a shopping trip, it all started with a delicious meal in the warm surroundings of the Safran restaurant, specializing in Turkish cuisine, which was followed by a relaxing coffee before we ended the day with a visit to LC Waikiki.

We first headed towards the Safran restaurant, located in a pleasant setting and whose careful decoration created a welcoming atmosphere. The entrance to the restaurant was decorated with festive decorations, adding a friendly touch to our experience, as soon as we arrived , my children were fascinated by the beauty of the place, we were led to a comfortable table, near two large posters depicting the iconic places of Izmir and Taksim Square, which immediately immersed us in the spirit of Turkish culture, while soft music played in the background reinforced this immersion.

My youngest son, Skander, was particularly intrigued by the menu which he scanned carefully to choose his favorite dish. While we waited for our dishes we took a souvenir photo that captured the joy of this family moment we also took advantage of this wait to discuss our plans for the rest of the day.

The meal began with lentil soup, a classic of Turkish gastronomy, both comforting and delicious, with a subtly balanced flavor then we enjoyed a variety of starters, such as creamy hummus and mixtures of finely seasoned eggplants, my children, curious to discover new flavors, took pleasure in tasting each dish and each plate told a culinary story rich in traditions.

The main course was a true visual and gustatory feast: a large platter mixing fragrant rice, pieces of grilled meat, juicy and tender chicken, as well as crispy fries, all accompanied by fresh vegetables and caramelized onions, each bite was an explosion of flavors, which demonstrated the chef's culinary mastery, the Turkish bread sprinkled with nigella seeds completed this hearty meal, we took the time to savor each moment by sharing smiles and discussions, which made this moment even more special.

After this delicious lunch, we had a coffee on the terrace of a restaurant located not far from Sefran, the atmosphere was calm, and we took advantage of this moment to relax while enjoying the view of the lively street, this moment of calm allowed us to reflect the moments of happiness that we had just experienced while sharing a coffee together.

Finally, we concluded this day with a visit to LC Waikiki a store that I particularly appreciate for the quality and choice of its clothes. As soon as we arrived, we explored the different sections of the store, taking the time to discover the women's and children's collections where the well-organized displays highlighted a wide range of clothing, I stopped in front of a department where a superb blue jacket immediately caught my eye and after trying it on, I added to my purchases.

This day was a perfect mix of discovery, sharing and pleasure, the meal at the Safran restaurant transported us to the heart of Turkey with delicious cuisine, while our visit to LC Waikiki was an opportunity to find items quality, these moments spent together will remain etched in our memories as a simple day but rich in happiness and complicity.
