Heineken: “Imagine” #ImagineKL showcase at Slate @ The Row

Heineken KL launch its latest campaign “Imagine” #ImagineKL showcase at Slate @ The Row. We being treated to embark on a journey of sense of taste from the beer, sight, sound and touch from the act piece displayed.

Heineken work with a diverse range of young artists from the field of fashion, motion design, film-making, sculpture, photography, graphic design and sound art to fill the space that ignite ours senses.

When first walk in I’m captured by the big sheet of plastic which wrap around two piece of clothing, namely ‘untitled’ by a local fashion designer Jeo Chia. After hearing the explanation, I feel like for every piece of clothing we wear, it send a certain message and energy to the space we occupied. and these energy somewhat tells stories of a person.

Where is Ipoh best taufufa/soybean curd: Woong Kee, Ding Feng, Funny Mountain, Tai Soo, Lou Yao Kei – Bercham

The texture of Ipoh taufufa is unbelievable.

So silky smooth, it slides down your throat with ease, cooling its path and bringing much comfort to the parched throat.
Otherwise it works just as well as a deserved treat. There isn’t a need to justify a (or more) bowl of beancurd when you are in Ipoh!

Grand Millennium Kuala Lumpur – Traditional mooncakes (2015)

So, have you done all the prerequisite mooncake shopping and giveaways this year?
I have.

I’m all for the unique and creative flavours but those usually are the snowskins. The traditional baked ones travel better, so as gifts, that would be my first consideration.
Naturally, for gifts the packaging matters too.

The Grand Millennium Kuala Lumpur is highly favourable in my list for its daily buffet at The Mill. For the price charged, it offers both quality and quantity, which I believe something that most consumers want.
It’s Chinese restaurant is well known for its delectable dim sum, which funnily enough I’ve not tried til recently.
Based on reliable feedback from friends and my own tasting of a few dim sum offered for lunch on my recent visit, I’ll say the reviews were pretty spot on.

But I had to leave space to taste their mooncakes this round. And the emphasis for their repertoire yearly is the traditional.

Bowery Petit, TTDI – cafe, bakery & pizzeria

Unless you are extremely fussy, leaving Bowery Petit empty-handed is highly unlikely.

The heavy glass doors open to a small but cosy space where 50% of it are dedicated to the bewitching display of an amazing wide array of cakes, cupcakes, macarons, tiramisu, pies, tarts, muffins, danishes and breads in all forms from bagels to mini loaves, buns and rolls.

If you have a sweet tooth like I do, it is time to bid any form of self-constraint goodbye.
