This year, we did not get to visit many shopping malls in the Klang Valley to check out their Christmas decorations. We only managed to check out the Christmas decorations at The Curve, Sunway Pyramid and Mid Valley. Actually we saw 1 Utama’s Christmas decor too but let’s just say we were not impressed.  THE CURVE We were impressed with the flying reindeers and Santa on a sleigh at The Curve. The Christmas decorations at […]

Eyuzu Japanese Cuisine at Eastin Hotel Kuala Lumpur is one of our favourite Japanese restaurants around. Their Shumatsu buffet dinner is top notch as they serve only quality Japanese specialties; from the freshest sashimi to piping hot teppanyaki grill and crisp tempura fried upon order. I dare vouch that they are really good as we were there last July not for a media review but to celebrate Ethan’s birthday and find the buffet spread as […]

Is the Baby Shark craze still on?

We went back to both Darling and my hometowns last weekend. The journey back to my hometown in Melaka was extremely tiring due to the most horrible jam we had ever encountered. We started our journey at 11.30am only to arrive at my mom’s place at 5.30pm with one quick stop at KFC along the way to fill our empty tummy  If not for my cousin’s wedding, we would have made a detour back to KL […]

It’s the festive season and almost everyone I know is busy holidaying somewhere. We just got back from a great getaway too. We went to this place where cherry blossoms is in full bloom. It’s so beautiful that we can’t resist but to take a family picture under the alluring sakura arch. Bright cherry blossoms and the rustle of bamboo give such a serene ambiance to this location. I believe I could have tricked a handful of […]

Ethan plays the drum and piano a lot during the school holidays. It keeps him occupied. Ed Sheeran’s PERFECT is trending again since the release of Perfect Symphony with Andrea Bocelli and it prompted Ethan to play this song.  This is also the first song he learns to play by himself. Take a listen to his drum cover to Perfect: Check-out the rest of their music videos here.

Moreover they have this promo of KIDS EAT FOR FREE on weekends with purchase of adult main meals. Last Sunday, Lavo held a Christmas Colouring Contest for children. We love their festive coloring […]

Christmas is in the air. It is my favourite season of the year. Our house is filled with one Christmas medley after another. These days we spend our evenings in the music room with Ethan playing on the piano while the rest of us singing to the tune. Ayden is slowly learning the lyrics to all these songs. Here is Ethan playing When Santa Claus Gets Your Letter on the piano:

During our recent trip down South to Johor, we stayed at KSL Hotel & Resort.  KSL Hotel & Resort Johor Bahru is the largest integrated resort in Johor. The hotel contains 868 rooms, suites and 20 function rooms. Besides located in the city center and near to Singapore-Johor Bahru causeway (5minutes), the hotel is also connected to a shopping mall. The fact that it has an astonishing 868 rooms, the 4 elevators can be pretty crowded during peak season. We […]

When my blogger friends invited me to join them on a road trip to Johor, I was a little hesitant knowing that we will have to endure long hours in the bus. But they know my weakness. They told me we’ll be eating seafood until giler. They know I super love seafood and will never say NO to it especially the ones from Crab Factory. The pioneer in bringing the whole Southern American cuisine of […]

We just got back from a 2D/1N trip to Johor with some friends. It was the boys’ first time sitting in a bus for such long hours but time flies when we have great company as there were two other children with us on this trip.  It was fun playing tourist in Johor. One of the places we visited is the CROWN arch at Istana Bukit Serene in Johor Bahru. The Istana Bukit Serene is the […]

It’s the school holidays. Guess who needs a break more than the boys? Yes, ME (not forgetting the Daddy too). Having two active boys at home 24/7 is no joke. I need my ME time before I go crazy but being a stay-at-home-mom with no baby sitter, it is almost impossible to get any pampering done as there won’t be anyone to care for the boys. But all hope is not lost as I found […]

How familiar are you with this picture below? This scenario is almost impossible to avoid if we are on the road these days and the fact is, we do spend a lot of our time stuck in traffic travelling from one point to the other. Being in the comfort of our car, we are unfortunately not sparred from air pollution. We rely on our air-conditioning system for the air circulation in our vehicle yet their […]

Tyrant Seafood Plateau Level 2, 2-6 Awana SkyCentral They are well-known for their […]
