Those who know me (on the surface) would be label me a workaholic.
Well, they aren’t far off the mark, but then again they don’t spend every minute with me so they won’t know my rest hours.

But yes, work-life balance. It is a phase bounced about, but is work-life balance a luxury or necessity?
The “Kronenbourg 1664 Wednesday” 9-month long activation aims to raise the bar in championing work-life balance.

We all love a good buffet no?
Oh yes, we do.

Even I do.
Except that I’m fussy as hell, and I want my money’s worth. Quality and taste is important to me.
Oh, wait. Doesn’t everyone else?

Well good news, because I’ve recently discovered another worthy buffet in Klang Valley to add to my list of “Great buffets in Klang Valley worth your Money“.

The Resort Café is Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa’s new all-day dining restaurant welcomed its first guest for a meal recently. The 17,588 square feet/ 1,634 square metres restaurant is vibrant, both in decor and infectious energy from the chefs and staff.
Cooks worked furiously at the live stations to meet diners’ requests while diners’ eyes will inevitably be drawn to the the monumental octagonal-shaped wrap-around towers filled with freshest greens and fruits.

I love the massive space.
Everything is laid out in an organized manner at the counters and there are plenty of space to manoeuvre your way around even when the cafe is full.
The dining area is also comfortably arranged so conversation remains private as you dine.

I embarked on a halal trip to Macau recently and when a few close friends asked if I was mad, I had calmly replied no.

In fact I had thought that the initiative taken by the Malaysian Macau Government Tourist Office to market Macau to Muslims a sound one.
I was curious myself too; what would be a Muslim’s diet like in a city known of sin and swine?

I had to indulge my curiosity and being the adventurous shod that I am, I hopped on the plane to Macau.

So, where do Muslims go and dine at when in Macau?

Well, for the “go” part, there’s plenty to see, learn and explore sans casinos.

Hanaya Japanese Fine Dining – Grand Millennium Hotel KL (launch review)

The Grand Milennium Hotel opposite Fahrenheit 88 has pretty good F & B establishments within its walls.
The daily buffet offers great variety and quality ingredients while the Chinese restaurant is renowned for its dim sum.

The Japanese restaurants were however never under the hotel’s purview but were independent operators.
Over the years we have seen changes and the latest to step in is Hanaya Japanese Fine Dining, a sister outlet of TEN Japanese Fine Dining, the same company of which manages my favourite sushi bar (Ichiro in 1U), Menya Musashi and Senya (Publika, KLCC, 1U).

Hanaya Japanese Fine Dining opened on 16th April and we were given a glimpse of its promising menu a day before.
