Best Of Malaysia: Nyonya Cuisine By Chef Debbie Teoh @ Chatz Brasserie Parkroyal Kuala Lumpur

Fast forward two years later, Parkroyal Kuala Lumpur is looking forward to welcome Chef Debbie Teoh back to Chatz Brasseri e with her authentic Nyonya flavours through buffet dinners and hi-teas.

Bari-Uma Ramen @ Jaya Shopping Centre

Image
There's a whole lot of ramen spots that I've been to lately, but the good thing is, I still love them all. The soup is what makes up a good ramen dish, so it's nice to note that the new Bari-Uma Ramen @ Jaya Shopping Centre served up some really concentrated ramen soup with very nice ingredients. We were there the other day to check out what they had to offer.  Bari-Uma Ramen @ Jaya Shopping Centre

Shell FuelSave Challenge 2014 #ShellFSC

Image
Driving has always been a passion for me , from the time I got my first car, up until now where I literally drive more than 80 kilometres daily for work. The high mileage usually translates to a very high petrol bill every month, hence I'm always on the hunt for better solutions towards fuel efficiency. No thanks to peak hour jams, driving nowadays has become pretty tedious especially when it's a nasty slow crawl on the road. Carpooling is out of the question even though it did come up during my thought process to save on my petrol budget. Using my Fuelly mobile app to record down every time I pump petrol, I am able to roughly gauge which petrol manufacturer and even petrol stations that gives me more mileage. In tandem with that, I've learnt to control my right food so that I can drive more efficiently, saving more petrol in the process. Being an avid user of Shell FuelSave 95 , especially to fuel up my car for the long journeys back to my hometown, I am pretty hy

Sesame Street Live - Elmo Makes Music Media Launch

Image
I've just came back from the Sesame Street Live - Elmo Makes Music Media Launch event over at 1 Utama this morning. Bringing Martin along was a pretty good move, as he truly enjoyed the Sesame Street characters and music, much more than us. We were there to check out the special appearance by Elmo and his friends from Sesame Street today at the Ground floor, highstreet of 1 Utama shopping centre in conjunction with Genting Mega Fun Roadshow.

More and more folks are getting into the healthy drinks scene, and what better way to stay healthy than to whip up your own fruit juices. Drinking fruits and vegetables takes less effort than to eat them, and that's exactly what today's post will be focusing on. I was at  Coway Juicepresso Truck Roadshow at Plaza Mont Kiara the other day to check out the new Coway Juicepresso Slow Juicer in action.  Coway Juicepresso Slow Juicer Roadshow

Early this month, it was my dad's birthday and he so happened to be with us in KL, hence we brought him out for a nice Bak Kut Teh dinner at Chuan Kee Restaurant along Jalan Genting Klang before surprising him with a simple birthday cake at home. It was a nice dinner, which I hoped that will make daddy happy.  Happy Birthday Dad !

It was my first time over at the Royal Gourmet Chinese restaurant in Premiere Hotel Klang . I was informed they had these rather nice weekend 'eat all you can' pork-free dim sum buffet, so there we were last weekend to sample some of their 'noms'. Located at Klang, it wasn't exactly the nearest spot from my home. Nevertheless, check out below on what we had that morning.  Dim Sum Buffet @ Royal Gourmet Premiere Hotel Klang

CitiCars Automobile Service Centre @ The Gardens Mall Midvalley

Image
Owning a vehicle would mean that we will need to service it too, at regular intervals, be it every 5,000km, 10,000km, or 15,000km. How often do we delay servicing out beloved cars because it usually means leaving our car at the service centres for hours on end, without anything to do except to stare at the mechanics working on our vehicle. Introducing the new 'auto service centre in shopping malls' concept, CitiCars Automobile Service Centre @ The Gardens Mall Midvalley where one can leave their cars in safe hands for servicing while heading off to shop till you drop!

Wine Tasting Evening With Wine Talk @ La Bodega Lounge Bangsar

Image
I had the opportunity to attend a wine appreciation evening out with Wine Talk’s French sommelier, David Stephan a couple of weeks back. Held at La Bodega Lounge in Bangsar Baru, it was indeed a very nice laid back evening with good food paired with great wine. Wine appreciation still seems to be a mystery for a lot of people. But with Wine Talk and with its French Sommelier, David Stephan, wine discovery becomes easier and more fun, which was exactly what we experienced that evening.  Wine Tasting Evening With Wine Talk @ La Bodega Lounge Bangsar
