Tiger Beer launches RM1.5 million fund to ‘Save Our Street Food’

21/04/2020 1 Comment

Tiger Beer announced today that it will donate RM1.5 million to support Malaysian street food during the Movement Control Order (MCO). The funding will be used to help cover rent for street food vendors, coffee shops and food courts across the country as they face reduced income due to ongoing restrictions. RM1 million of the funds will be made available immediately, and will benefit street food vendors operating in more than 1200 coffee shops and food courts nationwide.

Tiger Beer is also giving the public a way to support their local coffee shops and food courts through this tough time, by purchasing vouchers to be used once restrictions are relaxed. Supporters can log on to www.drinkies.my/TigerSOS and purchase a voucher for a big bottle of Tiger or Tiger Crystal (RSP RM17) at only RM10. This voucher can then be redeemed at any participating coffee shops and food courts across the country when they reopen. The outlet will receive the initial
RM10 voucher price, plus the full RM17 RSP value from Tiger Beer for each voucher redeemed.

Roland Bala, Managing Director of Heineken Malaysia Berhad said, “Tiger has long been a champion for Asian street food, so it was important for us to help support the people who create the dishes we all love. We hope that the Tiger ‘Save Our Street Food’ fund goes some way to easing their financial burden during this tough time, and look forward to supporting them further as conditions improve.

We also invite the public to join us in supporting the local coffee shops and food courts where many of our favourite street food vendors operate, with the purchase of vouchers to be redeemed once restrictions are relaxed. For every RM10 spent, Tiger Beer will contribute another RM17, helping these outlets get back on their feet.”

Meanwhile, Tiger Beer is also working with the Malaysia Singapore Coffee Shop Proprietors’ General Association on additional initiatives to help the wider industry.

The Tiger Save Our Street Food fund is part of a comprehensive package of support for F&B Operators and the wider community by Heineken Malaysia Berhad (HEINEKEN Malaysia). HEINEKEN Malaysia recently announced that it was providing 80,000 meals to more than 3,000 B40 community members located around the brewery premises. More measures aimed at helping outlet owners and other associated business partners are expected to be announced in due course.

Tiger Save Our Street Food is part of a wider regional initiative from Tiger Beer, #SupportOurStreets. In addition to supporting street food vendors across Asia, #SupportOurStreets encourages consumers to stay off the streets as part of continued safe distancing measures across the region.

An Everyday wear with Thousand Miles Shorts

24/03/2020 17 Comments

Sometimes for guys, it is quite hard to find a nice comfortable every day shorts. It is hard to find a pair that you get a nice cutting but only to wear it for specific occasions, could not be your all in one pants. Is there any shorts/pants which is kinda like all in one? What if there’s one that is all in one? There is one actually, but again depending on your fashion style. Thousand Miles is one of the new start up that offers you all-in-one shorts depending on your fashion style. Personally, I’d say this suits me pretty well.

Not only it is comfy, it is perfect for sports person too where the shorts is made like kinda dry fit concept. So, this is light, airy, easy to iron unlike our normal traditional shorts and perfect for travels too as it is pack-able into a rather small size and does not take up a lot of space.

As for this, I got a pair of this shorts in their website Duo Pack that comes with Urban Grey and Midnight Blue.

Do note that I am standing at :
height : 185cm
weight: 90 kg
average size for my jeans/pants : 34 -35 inch (some cutting like Zara/ H&M is 36 inch)
– The size I got for my pants is SIZE L

Love the Urban Grey colour as it easily fits with my colour of t-short/shirts that I have. Wore the shorts out over the weekend and find it very comfortable, and light. Both front pockets were quite deep to fit both my handphone and wallet as usual. The shorts lenghts are about 2-4 inches away from my knee.

A little side view of both front pocket and back pocket.

both back pocket comes with a zip.

As I was eating in the restaurant and got some water drops onto the pants. To my suprise it dries up pretty quick.

On the front side, it comes with adjustable string, just in case you buy pretty big size? An instant tick button for support. What I like the most is, both the sizes are with flexi rubber. So I do not have to worry on unbuttoning my shorts after heavy meal.

Both my pants.

A sample of me folding it up and my parquet tiles is about 15cm x 15 cm per piece. It definitely can go smaller and flatter too, if you have master a few folding methods.

Can actually be packed into the right pocket like this.

I have pull and stretch it maximum and it seems can stretch about easily 1 inch per side.

Not only your common casual shorts, it is also perfect for sports too. If you are into hiking or jogging, it is a perfect 1 indeed. Dry up pretty fast.

If you want to check out the casual pants short sizes, it is in their website (click here)

Lunch with dahmakan Food Delivery

30/01/2020 1 Comment

Lazy? Busy? No time? Well, all of these are the reason that we constantly tell ourselves that we do not have time to cook a great meal. Not all of us are in that category and I believe most of us are in it. Where to find great home cook food without the cooking. We are left only with 2 choices. Either “tabao” from your favourite place or order a delivery. dahmakan had been in the market for quite a while and been consistently delivering pretty good food to many of us in the office or at home. Even my company order 100 packs from them for our monthly Birthday celebration.

dahmakan is a food portal that offers home cook food from their chef recipe with ingredients source daily from the market. If you log into their website few days once, you might see there are some seasonal item that could be introduce for a period of time or only available on weekend.

For you first timer that is going to order their food do use this promo code “BETASTY1144” for 25% off your first purchase upon check out of dahmakan.

Listen and view many of my friends ordering this, it seems would be a pretty good value till I try it again last weekend as I was too busy to go out with house spring cleaning, where Chinese New Year 2020 is just around the corner.

It was most of the time that my colleague that is ordering it and this is my first time ordering through their app and the ordering experience were pretty seemless. Clean layout, Easy and direct to the point. Check out their menu as it takes RM 12 to delivery to you.

It is easy to make decision on which dish to hit on. Just look at their ratings. I know that Salted Egg Butter Chicken is their signature or best seller in dahmakan. I have tried it once and it is pretty good for a food delivery.

This round decided to try something else.

It would be:

Mac & Cheese with Chicken Meatballs @ RM 14.90
Nasi Lemak Ayam Berempah with Tealive Classic Roasted Milk Tea with Grass Jelly @ RM 16.90
Roasted Chicken Breast with Spinach Barley Risotto, Mushroom
Salted Egg Chicken @ RM 14.90
Baked Japanese Curry

Nasi Lemak Ayam Berempah with Tealive Classic Roasted Milk Tea with Grass Jelly @ RM 16.90

To my suprise, all three of the food were pretty good. Nasi Lemak were pretty good as the rice is fragrant and the ayam berempah is filled with flavours. Not the one that pack with a punch but decent enough for a quick crave.

I find that this is pretty good in value Roasted Chicken Breast with Spinach Barley Risotto, Mushroom turns out to be better than I expected. The Risotto were cook spot on. Risotto is not too soft yet too hard. The soup stock that cook along is not too salty yet blends quite well with the roasted chicken breast. Chicken Dip with the sauce give a lift that it needed.

My sister is a fan of anything with cheese. She ordered Mac & Cheese with Chicken Meatballs @ RM 14.90.

Macaroni cook just right, moist and springy. Bolognise sauce is thick enough to pairs with the mac n cheese. Meatball is not too dense yet the amount given is just right.

Their new in the menu is Baked Japanese Curry is pretty good. I think among the list that I have ordered, Baked Japanese Curry is my favourite. The curry is mild fragrant, and the amount of ingredient like chicken is pretty generous. Amount of cheese topped on top is also not too heavy. Not your daily consumption but best to have it once a while.

Salted Egg Butter is their all time best seller @ RM 14.90. Those of you might thought that it will be too creamy or to punch with flavours. However it is done right. Chicken is soft and juicy and the gravy is not too salty, creamy to fits the meal and fragrant enough with the salted egg.

Overall, is that dahmakan delivers better food than what I expected.

The event took place at Plaza Arkadia, Desa Park City.

Titled “Spheres of Hope”, the artwork – which will be featured throughout the campaign and on limited edition bottles specially designed for this New Year season – takes the form of a resonant dreamscape which exudes glittering radiance and a masterful interpretation of the infinite cycle of nature.

“Every year, the world’s cities shine with red lanterns celebrating the start of the Lunar New Year. It is a celebration of promising new beginnings and of a perpetual movement that Hennessy embraces generously. This is what we wanted to embody in this especially meaningful celebration. It exudes glittering radiance and a masterful interpretation of this infinite cycle of nature,” explained Thomas Bouleuc, Managing Director of MHD Malaysia.

For this launch, Hennessy also collaborated with renowned Malaysian landscape designer Lim In Chong, popularly known as Inch, to create the “Garden of Hope”. The tree installation, specially designed and built by Inch for Hennessy, is a realisation of twelve trees, holding individual coloured spheres inspired by shades of Zhang Huan’s artwork.

Visitors to Plaza Arkadia will be able to experience both Zhang Huan’s artwork and the “Garden of Hope” throughout the campaign duration, which will end on 8 February 2020. Huan’s artworks will also feature on Hennessy’s promotions and publicity throughout the campaign and on a microsite specially developed by Hennessy for the festivities.

At the microsite, users can find out more about the ongoing events, create their own New Year greetings to share on social media with friends, and play games to collect Kam points. With these points, users can redeem exclusive Hennessy bottles, free dinners and free drinks at participating restaurants and clubs.

The “Renewal of Hope” will also take on another benevolent facet which will see Hennessy fulfilling the hopes of eight people in the New Year – one from each of eight different categories – health, wealth, relationships, career, self, business, home and travel. In the true spirit of giving back, Hennessy has specially curated a gift for each category, which will amount to a total giveaway worth RM38,888.
