in Traveling Steem12 days ago (edited)

Assalamu Alaikum,
Hello everyone,
I am @selina1

From #Bangladesh

I'm starting by wishing all my Steemit friends good health. I will participate in a great engagement challenge today. Through the challenge, I will share with you about one of the best hotels and the food in the hotel. The name of the hotel is "Bismillah Hotel" When I first learned about this hotel and my curiosity was aroused, maybe this is my Geo Quest secret for me. Because even though it is a very ordinary hotel, it is popular among people.

My name is Selina and I am a housewife. Besides, I have another acquaintance that I am a curious observer. Every person has a lot of experience and a desire to know something, and that's the case with me too. I am a foodie. I really like tasting and exploring traditional foods of different places. So whenever I get a chance, I try to go to different restaurants or hotels to observe the food. So I went to a popular restaurant near our house to explore traditional food, it was a great observation experience for me.

Origin and description of my discovery place:

The name of the restaurant is "Bismillah Hotel", located in front of Moiran Bypass Bishwa Road in Gazipur Mahanagar. When this road was built, a large number of freight trucks, other vehicles used to travel through it and the drivers were very hungry and there were no food hotels nearby. One day, a middle-aged woman and her husband built a hotel here and served the traditional Kala Bhuna Bhat food of Rajshahi Division of Bangladesh and these foods are very delicious to eat 😋. Many car drivers eat here every day. Since then, they have prepared various types of food items in addition to Kala Bhuna.

This hotel serves food in packages. The package for 300 taka or Steam 34.8 includes beef Kala Bhuna, various types of filling items, salad dal, potato bhaji and white rice. This packet of food can easily be eaten by one or two people. Another advantage of this hotel is that you can pay for your food bill here in cash or bKash.There are also various types of drinks and yogurt.And you have to pay separately for all these meals.

Now, in addition to drivers, people from far and wide come here to eat the traditional Kala Bhuna of Rajshahi. That is, this hotel is now quite famous for eating the traditional Kala Bhuna of Bangladesh. The quality of food in this hotel is very good and the popularity of this hotel is increasing day by day due to the use of shopkeepers and employees. One day, after eating the food here and seeing them entertaining me, I realized that I want to go here again with my family.

The environment here is very beautiful, you can spend time with your loved ones or family and friends by eating here and chatting. I came to this hotel with my family and had a great time, especially I spent a naughty sweet time with my younger niece which will be a memory for me for the rest of my life. I am impressed by eating the traditional food of our country from this hotel. I first thought that maybe it is an ordinary hotel 🤔 But when I gained knowledge about their service and food, I was impressed 🥰.
"My exploration has taught me an important thing. I think every person should taste traditional food. Then our generation will survive for generations."

When I heard about this hotel and the food of this hotel, I was really curious and came here with my family to observe. I spent time with my sister's children and I also fed them traditional food. My niece and I take pictures together in different ways 📸. I always try to discover new places and new foods, which gives me an experience about the traditional food of different places.

When we went to the hotel, my niece and nephew were also very curious and when we started spending time there, our curiosity was explored and we were able to eat traditional food through the good quality service of this beautifully decorated hotel. "This place reminds me of the joy of sitting in a calm and polite atmosphere and eating rational food with loved ones and promoting traditional food in our own country to the new generations."

Thank you for your participation in Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 1: The Origin Point. Here is a fair evaluation of the post by @selina1, following the official Week 1 rubric for Geo-Quest Mystery.

Evaluation Summary

CriteriaScoreComments
1. SteemAtlas Pin & Description1.4 / 1.5The SteemAtlas pin is clearly included with coordinates and a detailed place name (Bismillah Hotel, Moyran Bypass, Bishwa Road, Gazipur City). Good practical context about why the hotel exists and who it serves. To reach full points, add 1–2 quick “how to find it” hints (nearest landmark/sign/entrance).
2. Creativity of Mission & Hidden Clue1.1 / 2.0The idea of a food-exploration Origin Point is valid and personal (curious observer + foodie identity). However, the required hidden clue (acrostic or emoji-code spelling one word about you) is not clearly presented as a hidden word in the post.
3. Speem.watch Proof Video1.6 / 2.0A video is included (reviewed by a Speem watcher), which supports proof. For full points, ensure the post displays a clear Speem.watch link and the video contains a direct “starting point” line while showing recognizable markers (hotel signboard/entrance/food counter).
4. Storytelling Quality1.6 / 2.0Clear narrative: curiosity → visit with family → traditional food experience and memory-making. Some parts could be tightened (less repetition) and strengthened with more sensory details (smell/taste/atmosphere) in a short beginning–middle–end arc.
5. Photos Quality & Authenticity1.5 / 1.5Strong authentic photo set: venue, signboard, food items, family moments. Visual proof is excellent and matches the story.
6. Engagement (Comments / Clue Guessing)0.0 / 1.0Based on your note, the participant did not interact with other entries to guess their hidden clues, so engagement points cannot be awarded this week.

Final Score: 7.2 / 10

Remarks:
This is a visually strong and authentic Origin Point with a clear SteemAtlas pin and good “local culture through food” storytelling. The two main upgrades needed for a higher score are: (1) add a clear hidden clue (acrostic/emoji-code word), and (2) meet the engagement requirement by commenting on at least two other posts and attempting to guess their hidden clues.

ওয়াও চমৎকার একটা রেস্টুরেন্ট, এ রেস্টুরেন্টের খাবারের স্বাদ হয়তো একটু ভিন্ন এজন্য আমি টেস্ট করতে চাই 😉

Dear sister, you have reviewed a popular local restaurant in your area. Looking at the pictures of the food in your post, it seems that the food is very delicious. Eating at a restaurant with family increases the joy, which I have understood from your pictures. The price of the food is very low according to the information you have given. If I ever go to Rajshahi, I will definitely eat at the restaurant. Your restaurant has been presented beautifully. Best wishes to you.
