Launch of YES 4G by YTL Communications – Rates, Devices & ..
A lot was said about the 4G standard, with some die-hard techies pushing to make their point heard about YTL Comms being misleading and misusing the 4G moniker.
I’m not going into that; for as a consumer, I seriously don’t give a s**t what they call it. Give me SPEEDY, ZIPPY & RELIABLE connection & I’m happy. Even better if all of that comes with reasonable rates.
The rates were finally revealed yesterday. Just as mentioned in the soft launch HERE , there is no plan, no monthly commitments. YES is SIM-less & it is Pay-As-You-Use.

Classy Champagne Sundays at Shook! Starhill Gallery, Bukit Bintang
Weekend brunches are a luxury to most of us. What more if it is a champagne brunch! Myself haven’t been to many, and was most fortunate to be on the invite list for the launch of the newest champagne brunch on the block just last Sunday.
Sundays at Shook! in Starhill Gallery, Bukit Bintang are now sparkled up with a touch of sophistication. The champagne of choice here is the superb Piper Heidsieck, which was awarded 91 points by Wine Spectator. For wine lovers, Cloudy Bay; one of the best known “new world” wines will be served.
Though I’m not much of a drinker, I insistedly took a sip of the Piper Heidsieck & was rewarded with the excellent taste of smooth luxury in my mouth. Hhmm..

Starbucks Malaysia – More food choices on its new menu!
Starbucks has got new food options on its menu! :yahoo:
I’m not fond of chain- cafes food; but most unfortunately, more often than not, (*frown*) I find myself in Starbucks for business meetings too many times a week for my liking.
Yet we can’t deny that Starbucks is an ideal meeting point. Easily recognisable, available everywhere & most importantly, there is FREE WIFI provided for convenient browsing.
Coincidentally, the Christmas season is upon us, and hence the Christmas Toffee Nut Latte and Peppermint Mocha made their appearances again. Overall feedback on the Toffee Nut Latte was “too sweet” while the the Peppermint Mocha was highly recommended from those who have tried it. Myself sipped the Mango Passion for the 1st time & immediately got hooked as it was not too sweet or sour. Very refreshing & easy to drink.
Get on the Rock with the new Honda City in Tafetta White!!
Honda Malaysia launched the 3rd Generation all new Tafetta White Honda City few days back & I was blinded by the sheer breeee—-lliance of it……..
Eerrr…, I meant the colour ok. 😉
Yes, I get all excited with anything in WHITE. My current car is white. My favourite pair of jeans is white.
I’m thinking of buying a WHITE Blackberry (only if it is WHITE ). I have 30 white tops. Ok, you get what I mean.
Islamic Fashion Festival XI (IFF) 2010 – Discovery the Beauty of Modesty
I was honoured to be present at the Gala Night of Islamic Fashion Festival 2010 yesterday night at the JW Marriot Hotel, KL.
Note: All pics taken with the Sony NEX 3.
Opulence, lavish & dazzling are the keywords to describe the fashion & this matches the ballroom set up of JW Marriot that night. My eyes were nearly blinded as I feasted them on my surroundings as well as the outfits of the Datins, Sultanahs, Datos (females) & Pn Sris that night!
Nyonya Mee Rebus/Mee Goreng at Restaurant Kwai Sun , Subang SS15
Apparently this lady has been around for a long long while. So much so that the parents of friends, uncle + aunties of fellow foodies & friends of friends (whew!) can attest to her slurpilicious noodles and swears by her superb one- of- its- kind gravy.
There’s even a juicy history that comes with the business, of which I will gladly share with you one day over a plate of …what else ? Nyonya mee rebus! 😉
A regular sized portion like the below minus any trimmings (cuttlefish, etc) is RM4.00. I wouldn’t say it’s dirt cheap, since it doesn’t come with ANY form of meat at all, but I opined that it is worth the $ once you take into consideration the laborious process required to produce the gravy.

** September Menu: HERE,
and October Menu: HERE & Oct 2nd visit HERE.
Whew! That’s a lot of visits! 😉
I’m a bit late for my Nov visit, simply cos work got in the way. Lunches longer than 30mins are a luxury really. Anyhow, I’m uploading the menu & pics 1st. Review coming up after I finish my work!
Note: All pics taken with the Nexus One as in my hunger & haste, I forgot BOTH my Sony NEX -3 and Sony DSC-N2!!
Let me share with you her menu for the month of November cos if you are planning to visit, you can start to budget now. Haha..
Nathalie’s is open for breakfast as well. I’ve heard great reviews of her cannele and buttery brioches.
My chosen starter: Tuna Tartare in (Mille Feuille), Pistachio & Sesame Seeds, mustard cream, RM25. I have weakness for anything that’s labelled “tartare” 😉 and this was a superb choice!
