Beer & Food Pairing with Heineken Malaysia Berhad (HEINEKEN Malaysia) @ The BAR°N Wine Bar Pavilion

We are glad to join the Heineken Malaysia Berhad (HEINEKEN Malaysia) exclusive beer and food pairing experience - “Sip and Savour”. Through a series collaboration with select restaurant partners, HEINEKEN Malaysia’s signature lagers, stouts and ciders prove to be the perfect partners to pair with these specially curated menus for the upcoming festive season. The three participating outlets are The BAR°N Wine Bar, SOULed OUT Kuala Lumpur, and Lavo Restro Wine Atelier.

(Second from left) Ng Eng Kiat, Corporate Communications Manager of HEINEKEN Malaysia shares about the world of beer & food during the Sip and Savour event at The BAR°N.
“We want to show our consumers how our lagers, stouts, and ciders are much more than refreshing drinks on their own. Thanks to our valued restaurant partners and the insightful guidance of our Culinary and Beer expert, Thomas Ling, consumers can now experience these delectable beer and food pairings throughout this festive season at The BAR°N, SOULed OUT, and Lavo. Beer has a place at the dinner table, and we want to help spread the love for beers and ciders, as well as showcase the diverse options when it comes to pairing,” said Ng Eng Kiat, Corporate Communications Manager of HEINEKEN Malaysia.


Thomas Ling, renowned Culinary and Beer expert, shared, “Beer and Food have brought people together for centuries now. With the year-end festivities approaching, we want diners to have a truly exceptional experience enjoying the right beer paired with the right food. The pairings selected here show how lagers, stouts, and ciders can cut, contrast, complement, and cleanse the palate in their own way.”
Thomas Ling, renowned Culinary and Beer Expert brought members of the media and guests through an exciting journey of pairing the right beer with the right food.  
The carbonation, alcohol and hops from beer ‘cut through’ the flavours and textures on your taste buds; for instance, the classic lager and pizza pairing or cider and creamy pasta. Beer can also complement similar flavours and characteristics in food. That is why stout goes perfectly with the smoky char on the grilled meat. At the same time, beer and food can create a contrast pairing, bringing out unique characteristics in both your pint and your plate. An example of a good contrast pairing is oysters and stout. You can also use your beer to cleanse your palate. For example, you can use the cool and refreshing flavour of lager beer to wash down the heat of fried chicken”, he added.



Raymond Toh, Head of Culinary for The BAR°N describes the intricacy of preparing each dish.We are proud to share our finest grills and cuisines in collaboration with HEINEKEN Malaysia. Inspired by our passion towards our love for good food and company, guests are guaranteed an indulgent experience with our exclusive eight-course beer pairing menu

Introducing the New JOHNSON’S®





A reinvention of what’s best for your baby with the gentlest range of baby care products ever


Malaysian Moms’ No. 1 Choice1, JOHNSON’S® pushed the envelope of gentleness for baby by introducing the New JOHNSON’S® -- a range of baby care products with Ultra Gentle formulas that contain 0% parabens, phthalates, sulfates and dyes2, and designed to be irritation free for baby and toddlers’ delicate and developing skin.

Speaking at the new product range launch today, Mr. Prashant Mahalingam, Country Director, Consumer at Johnson & Johnson Malaysia, said the New JOHNSON’S® is more than a reformulation exercise, it represents a reinvention of the total JOHNSON’S® baby care range from the user or parent’s perspective. It is also created with the brand’s 125 years’ experience and in-depth knowledge in baby skin and manufacturing science.

“To create the New JOHNSON’S® range of products, we put parents at the center -- listening to more than 26,000 parents from around the world -- and paired their feedback with the latest science to shape and refine our products inside and out. The result is JOHNSON’S® gentlest range of baby care products ever, raising the bar of our Best for Baby™ standard from the formulation to packaging design,” he said. 

Marking its biggest re-launch to-date, the New JOHNSON’S® sets the new standard for gentle through the selection of purposeful ingredients and complete ingredient transparency. Boasting a new packaging design and easy-to-understand labels for parents to recognize products for children of different ages and stages of development, the products are created using ingredients that are assessed and have undergone a rigorous safety-assurance process, promising parents a greater peace of mind.

"Safety is and will always be our number 1 priority, with every JOHNSON'S® product designed to meet or exceed the top internationally recognized regulatory standards,” added Prashant. 


What has changed in the New JOHNSON’S®?

Purposeful ingredient choice: JOHNSON’S® carefully considered every single ingredient in the range, rejecting over 400 ingredients during the reformulation. Ingredients portfolio have been reduced by over 50%, with naturally-derived oils like coconut and cottonseed replacing ingredients like mineral oil. The new range has 0% parabens, phthalates, sulfates and dyes2 – less than 2% of cosmetic ingredients globally meets these standards of gentleness. 

Fragrances designed with mom and baby in mind: Smell, memory and emotion are intimately connected, with decades of research showing that multi-sensory experiences are a key part of happy, healthy baby development. JOHNSON’S® has not only retained the iconic scents for which their classic products are known and loved for, but also designed to maximize bonding moments between parent and baby. All the fragrances are now formulated to be free of allergens, and continue to follow the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) and the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials (RIFM) global standards. 




Parent-friendly packaging: The new JOHNSON’S® bottles are now equipped with pumps designed for easier and one-handed use for parents, so mom and dad’s attention can remain focused on the baby. 

Products specially designed for every age and stage in a baby’s life: JOHNSON’S® products don’t just simply cleanse and moisturize—each are specially formulated to address special skin needs of babies and to turn moments of care into opportunities to strengthen babies’ connection to their parents and to nurture their healthy development. The new range features four ‘Ages & Stages’ to help parents easily navigate between the products within the ranges. The New JOHNSON’S® baby care range is suitable for minutes old newborn babies to 6-year old kids.


Reasons babies require gentle products

To help Malaysian mothers understand why newborns and toddlers need gentle skin care, Datuk Dr. Zulkifli Ismail, Consultant Paediatrician and Secretary General of the Asia Pacific Pediatric Association lends his presence at the New JOHNSON’S® launch to answer some frequently asked questions from moms. Datuk Dr. Zulkifli explained that infants’ skin is under-developed and is therefore delicate and requires gentle cleansing and care. “A newborn’s epidermis or the outermost layer of skin is 30% thinner than adults’,” he said.

“Baby’s thinner skin means it cannot absorb and retain moisture in the skin and is prone to moisture evaporation and dry skin,” he continued. 

With baby skin already vulnerable to losing moisture, strong cleansers will only disrupt the skin barrier even more, causing further dehydration. As such, parents need to select gentle cleansers that do not disrupt baby’s delicate skin and keep the skin barrier hydrated and in healthy condition with moisturizing.


Why you should CHOOSE gentle™

“At JOHNSON’S®, we’ve always been committed to delivering only the best for babies. We have never been more passionate in advocating for parents to CHOOSE gentle, that is to select the gentlest baby care products for their little ones,” shared Mr. Prashant Mahalingam.

Excited about the JOHNSON’S® CHOOSE gentle™ campaign, several celebrity mothers attended the New JOHNSON’S® launch to show their support. Actress and model Amyra Rosli, who became a mother in 2017, is an advocate of gentle baby care products for her 1 year 7 months old son Aqeef Anaqi Bin Amar. Her ‘gentle’ choice for Aqeef is JOHNSON’S® Milk + Rice Bath and Lotion. “As my little boy is actively crawling and constantly on all fours on the various floor surfaces at home, I have to ensure his skin is well moisturized and protected so that he can enjoy his exploration and develop happily,” said the bright-eye mom.


Comedian actress and well-known radio announcer Gan Mei Yan also advocates Malaysian moms to CHOOSE gentle™. She has a 4-year-old son Seng Jo and has just delivered her daughter Seng Sum 6 months ago. The mother of two recommends JOHNSON’S® CottonTouch™ Wash and Lotion for newborns and infants below 12 months. “I believe every newborn deserves the gentlest baby care products. This ultra-light, easy-to-rinse wash and lightweight lotion with no sticky residue allow me to get a good grip of my little Seng Sum during bath and change. It gives me even more confidence to handle her, even though I have had experience caring for Seng Jo. And the smell… it makes her even more lovable to hug and hold. Expecting moms, you need this JOHNSON’S® gentlest baby care for newborns!” exclaimed Mei Yan.

The New JOHNSON’S® range of baby care products will be available at major retail outlets nationwide starting June 2019. For more information about the New JOHNSON’S®, visit www.johnsonsbaby.com.my or follow us on JOHNSON’S® Malaysia Facebook page at www.facebook.com/JohnsonsbabyMY.

My Girls Roblox Birthday Party!! @ McDonald's Danau Kota Setapak



Every kids love birthday Party! Mummy loves parties too!
I have been planning for few months ahead to make this party happen and to fulfill my girl’s dream of having a theme party for both of them. Venue is the most important. Since McDonald’s is just opened recently at Danau Kota, Setapak, I decided to choose this place for our girls birthday parties. There are ample of free parking lot. The environment is pleasant, comfortable and suitable for birthday event. The party area can accommodate up to 30 pax and attached with a small playarea for kids. 

There are 4 choices of party packages. We choose to purchase Package C + Party pack. It is quite flexible to place a booking as long as you make a visit there, Set the date and time, pay the deposit (or purchase party pack -minimum of 10 party packs), provide them the food you want to order 1 day before and that’s it! Standard McDonald’s birthday deco will be provided and they will managed all the food to be served on that day. 1 ½ hour event plus 2 games organize by the McDonald’s party team.

I try my best to set a Roblox Theme party with simple deco and make it more lively. I am not a creative person. I browse Google looking for Roblox interesting images, colourful image, and free printing from Pinterest. Read few articles on how theme party need to be done and get some idea from FB posting as well. Not much of Roblox party deco can be found in party shops or website. So, I just stick to those free printable sheet and combination of Mcdo’s own party deco to make it a memorable event for my little girls.

She got her 'R' ballon for the day. Roblox big fans




McDonald's Party Pack selection



Next, I need to think of the goodies bag content. As usual, I will visit Joe Meng Food Trading @ Melawati Mall to get whole bunch of snacks and sweet treats at a reasonable price. They have plenty of party supplies, deco, food and toys. Too much of choice and temptation once you step inside! Kids get to choose their own goodie bag content and they are feeling excited to pack the party pack.

I am pretty excited too to prepare the goodie bag together with my kids. I also prepared a gift for all mothers since the party day is same weekend with Mother’s Day celebration. Glad to know all my family members and relative able to join our birthday party together. Lots of laughter and fun moments with them. I am grateful for their birthday gifts too.
