Most probably you have read about my blog posts about Bottoms Lab Momentum Long Pants, which are my favourite pair for formal and semi-formal functions. You can read about them here and here.

Now, I would love to tell you more about my current favourite pair of jeans. It’s the newly addition, Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans.

Here are some features that I really like about the jeans:
What I like about the jeans is it is extra stretchable that I can wear it to do yoga and workout. Its ultra-stretchable fabric makes exercising in a pair of denim possible! I can easily do squats, pigeon pose, backbend, warrior pose… and many more!

It is also quick-drying. Unlike the conventional jeans that trap heat and sweat around my thighs, this one never make me feel hot nor heaty. I must say that I still sweat heavily especially when I walk around. But this one, dries very quickly. Best to wear during trips and travel.

There is also a special ‘hidden’ feature – anti-radiation pockets. The pocket fabric of this Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans is integrated with copper material to minimise smartphone radiation while carrying them, hence saving the ‘soldiers’ in our sack.

Do check out Bottoms Lab Cool-Flex Jeans on their official website for more other features and details about the product. Trust me, you won’t regret getting one.

The Latest Signature Dishes in Première Hotel Klang – Kung Fu Steamed Fish and Fish Head Curry

June 24, 2022June 23, 2022 dixonthum

Craving for some curry goodness? Or prefer steamed food instead?

Première Hotel Klang is introducing their latest signature dishes – Kung Fu Steamed Fish and Fish Head Curry. These unique and authentic dishes are prepared by Chinese Head Chef, San Chong Chen and his culinary team of The Royal Gourmet Restaurant and are available from July & August 2022.

I have tried them both and I must say that you should try them too!

The Kung Fu Steamed Fish is perfectly steamed, flavoured with light soy sauce and topped with cilantro, goji berry, enoki mushroom and some spring onion. I personally like the well-balanced taste of this soy sauce very much as it blends in perfectly and enhances the flavour of this dish. Kung Fu Steamed Fish is priced at RM55 nett per set.

Another dish is the Fish Head Curry – definitely a must-try for all fish head curry lovers. The curry is extremely rich and savoury that comes with a thick fish curry gravy base – a concoction of fish curry powder, evaporated milk, curry leaves and topped with eggplant, tomatoes, crunchy long beans and fried beancurd – perfect for 2 to 3 servings in one portion. Definitely taste authentic and flavourful, best served with rice. Fish Head Curry is available at RM38 nett per set.

These special dishes are exclusively available from July & August 2022.

Aromatherapy-based Treatment with Urban Bliss Wellness for Holistic Relaxation

June 23, 2022June 23, 2022 dixonthum

There is a new aromatherapy concept spa & wellness centre newly opened in Putrajaya. Urban Bliss Wellness is located on the 3rd floor of Mercure Living Putrajaya, provides holistic health and wellness treatments like relaxing body massage, foot reflexology, aromatherapy massage, facial, body scrub, jacuzzi and many more!

I just went to Urban Bliss Wellness for a 180-minute Journey package; complete with their Signature Respite full body aromatherapy massage with manual lymphatic drainage, body scrub and Rebalance facial. After so long, finally I get to enjoy some total relaxation here. Not only was my whole body taken care of, the whole session took place in a very comfortable environment with soothing and relaxing music being aired and kept my mind calm and serene. The surrounding was filled with an aromatic scent that smelled very pleasant.

The treatment started off with a welcome drink. The friendly staff there explained to me their packages and then invited me to the foot washing area. After cleaning my feet, I was ushered to one of their massage rooms for a full body scrub, full body massage and facial treatment. I noticed that the massage technique here is very different from other places that I have been. Every rub and knead is light and gentle on the surface but firm and reaches deep to release tight and tension muscles. They use their own aromatherapy oil too. So the whole session smelled great! My session ended with a relaxing facial treatment. My skin felt so soft and hydrated after the session.

For me, I really like the overall feel that this treatment has given me. Throughout the session, I felt pampered and relaxed. The staff there were very friendly too. There are even a few VIP rooms and a couple room with jacuzzi tub, very suitable for honeymoon couples and newlyweds. Definitely a great place to recharge and rejuvenate.

Urban Bliss Wellness just opened in May 2022 and is currently having a Grand Opening Special promotion – 10%+10% off for ALL TREATMENTS. Make your reservation now and show yourself some self-love and pampering. Time to recharge and rejuvenate your mind, body and soul!

Cyber Eco Hunt 2022 – Towards A Sustainable Future

June 18, 2022May 10, 2023 dixonthum

I am so glad that I have the opportunity to play a small role in this meaningful event Cyber Eco Hunt 2022 by @alamflorasdnbhd with the theme “Towards A Sustainable Future” in Kuantan, Pahang.

The event aims to show commitment by Kumpulan Alam Flora and their continuous effort to reduce 40% recyclable wastage sent to disposal sites towards 2025. I had so much fun with the other participants who are also fellow bloggers and influencers in all the activities in each checkpoints.

The event was officiated by Dato’ Mohd Zain Hassan, CEO of Alam Flora Sdn Bhd, and also attended by Tuan Sharudin bin Hamid, Director of SWCorp Pahang.

There are a few points that I have learned from this activities:
1⃣ Dispose garden wastage like tree branches and bamboos the proper way, so that it is safe for Alam Flora staff during rubbish collection.

2⃣ “Beach comber” is used to clean up the beach around Teluk Cempedak, which removes rubbish like cigarette butts, plastic bottles and cans from the sandy beach.

3⃣ Segregate recycleables into 3 main categories – paper, plastic and others, and sell them to any Buy Back Centre or 3R on wheels. Earn when you recycle.

4⃣ 1 Supervisor 1 Transformation Area (1S1T) program, an initiative by supervisors of Alam Flora to improve the surroundings of their servicing area, an effort giving back to the community. They beautify the area, build playground and garden, make and paint sculptures with recycled rubber tyres and many more.

5⃣ Dining with tiffin containers to avoid using ‘single-use plastic’, is a more environmental-friendly way to pack food. Also, avoid food wastage can help to reduce methane gas which contribute to global warming.

6⃣ Plant more trees to make the Earth greener.

I was lucky enough to win a prize for one of the tasks we had to do throughout the event – Saya Sayang Bumi, Tree Planting (Blogger category). Very grateful to my team mates and glad to know other fellow blogger and influencer friends with the same passion and interest.

You can also be a part of this effort and join Alam Flora’s “Manage My Waste” TikTok Vlog Contest. Head over to @alamflorasdnbhd or this click this link for more information.
