Streat Thai @ The School, Jaya One PJ - Delicious & Affordable Thai Street Food

Image
Streat Thai @ The School, Jaya One PJ  They've been around for quite some time now, but only recently did I have the chance to savour some really delicious yet affordable Thai street food over at Streat Thai in Jaya One, Petaling Jaya. Yes, you read it right, it's spelt 'Streat' Thai, not Street, a play on words for that "eat" factor. From what I understood from the folks behind Streat Thai, cooks and baristas with different specialties in Thai street food from Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Pattaya, Bangkok and Hat Yai were hired to man each stall. Check out what we had that evening.  Streat Thai @ The School, Jaya One PJ - Delicious & Affordable Thai Street Food

Bai Wei Cuisine, Chinese Dishes @ Desa Sri Hartamas Just last weekend, I was over at Desa Sri Hartamas with the Mrs and kid, to dine at this rather new place serving some delectable noms. Bai Wei Cuisine @ Desa Sri Hartamas serves a wide variety of Chinese cuisine, located just beside Old Town White Coffee, so it is rather easy to locate. Per my understanding, the name comes about from the fact that Bai Wei serves different dishes from various provinces in China.

Don't Forget Your PIN Before Travelling

Image
Don't Forget Your PIN Before Travelling!  Planning for that perfect holiday soon? Whether you're travelling alone, with friends, or family, credit and debit cards are always useful for emergency payments, purchases and transactions, especially if you don’t fancy carrying large amounts of cash. Did you know Malaysian banks and retailers have migrated from signature to PIN as the standard for verifying customers for all card purchases at domestic point of sale? PIN & PAY is a secure method of payment that uses a PIN or 6-digit secret code , instead of your signature to authorise payment. As per Bank Negara Malaysia’s mandate, all banks have switched their payment cards from Chip & Sign to Chip & PIN since June 2016 and have embarked on a massive industry-wide campaign to communicate this to their customers. Most local retailers have already migrated to PIN & PAY since 1st January 2017. Holidaying with the kids, all smiles!

Love Food, Hate Waste Agehan Set Menu @ Agehan Japanese Restaurant, Grand Bluewave Hotel Shah Alam Love Food Hate Waste, now I'm a big believer in this campaign, which originated in the United Kingdom in year 2007 with the aim of reducing the amount of food waste. Even our government has been promoting it, to help save money and stopping tonnes of food waste being thrown away. Wasting food means that all the resources used to produce that food is also wasted. The good folks from  Grand Bluewave Hotel Shah Alam came up with this rather interesting Agehan Set Menu recently, so do check it out below.  Agehan Set Menu @ Agehan Japanese Restaurant, Grand Bluewave Hotel Shah Alam (Sashimi Gozen)
