Shortly after the previous blog post on Tep Wireless, the company made several attempts to contact me, even asked for my phone number so they could call me to resolve the problem ASAP (when in fact nobody seems to ever be around their hotline/help desk during my desperate international call attempts.)

So i think it is my responsibility to blog about the follow-up after the incident, since you guys played a part in this too!!

Here’s the last few email exchanges made.

I told them no, i’d prefer email conversations.  read more

In my entire 9 years of blogging experience, i have probably lost my cool several times and ranted about a few individuals who ruined my day. But never had i been so angry at a company before that i actually contemplated to publicly shame it. That’s how angry i’m feeling right now.

If you stumbled upon this blog site by googling the review of Tep Wireless service, congratulations. You just saved yourself lots of heartache and trouble. let me summarize it for you.

1. The device rarely works (a simple googling around and you will find tons of angry users).  read more

So on the third day of our Yakult media trip to Japan, i get to be a…. Yakult Lady.

What is a Yakult Lady?

A Yakult Lady is a woman who delivers Yakult products to customers’ homes by push carts, bicycles, motorcycles or cars. There are more than 40,000 Yakult Ladies in Japan, and over 2500 centers.

Did you know that there are also Yakult Ladies in Malaysia? I didn’t! I was very surprised to learn about that.

Little did i know, Yakult Lady is actually one of the most important part about Yakult. They sell more Yakult through Yakult Ladies throughout Japan than they do in the supermarkets. Impressive! read more

Haro!

Today i wanna talk about Yakult! It is a long post (i promise i will have an interesting story), so have some patience with me! (Also it involves Japan, haha bonus point for you!)

INTRO

If you haven’t already known, Yakult is a cultured milk drink/probiotic drink that is very, very, very famous in Japan. Actually make it the world! It is sold in 33 countries in the world, millions and millions of bottles are consumed everyday!

Of course, i myself have become a big fan of Yakult recently, especially since the danna made Yakult a must-buy item in the grocery list. We drink at least a bottle every day because he has managed to convince me how beneficial it is to our health (he didn’t really explained why, i just trusted my husband lolol), so every bento i make now always comes with a bottle of Yakult. read more

Earlier, i blogged about the beginner guide in Tokyo for all fashion lovers.

This time around, it’s a more advanced guide for people who want to explore more about Japan from a fashion angle, if you are already all familiar with all the favorite fashion shopping spots!

Tokyo is of course my favorite city in the world, and as someone who loves fashion, almost all aspects of life in Tokyo is related to fashion. Here are some of the fashion related events!

1. Halloween

As Halloween is just around the corner, you can see everyone is already gearing up for the spooky day. Donki is stocking up Halloween costumes and make up tools, while restaurants are starting to roll out their cute Halloween recipe! read more

Tokyo Summer Coordinate here.

As my luck has it, the entire time while i was in Tokyo end of Sep to mid October was like summer. I much, much prefer colder weather.

And right after i’m back to KL, the weather has a sudden drop and now it is all autumny.

Every. Damn. Time.

So while i brought many cute jackets, i ended up not wearing them at all, and here are my sort of crazy-end-of-summer coordinate in Tokyo.

Coordinate 1

Location: Shibuya, Tokyo

Hat, bag, shoes: EMODA

Coordinate 2 read more

Nagasaki 2013 Part 2!

Part 1 HERE.

Anyway, when it comes to Nagasaki, it automatically means live squid eyeball.

This time nobody shove the eyeball into my mouth. Probably they are very rude and don’t care about us.

After that it ended up in our plate again, this time sun-tanned.

What is Nagasaki without sashimi so fresh it is still moving. Was so so so good.

BREAKFAST

Our breakfast at the hotel is amaaaaazing.

Nagasaki food is very much influenced by Chinese culture, so there’s the famous sara udon (the one like HongKong Yee Mee), sweet and sour prawn, xiao long bao, etc etc! Everything was so yummy! read more

The last time i was in Nagasaki was when i got married the first time last Christmas eve.

(Just in case: second time is in Santorini. To the same person.)

And so Nagasaki will always hold a special place in my heart. And forgive me if i blog about the same-ish stuff this year again or sound repetitive, because we always go back to the same restaurant/same favorite spots. Of course and also to visit family.

Nagasaki is at the west end of Japan, so there are lots of sea and most of the houses in Nagasaki has a breathtaking view either of the mountain or the sea. read more

Short update from Japan!

If you love meat, especially beef, you know Japan has some of the best beef in the world. Last night i had life-changing Yakiniku (BBQ meat) and i thought i would blog about it.

This place is called Shibaura Yakiniku, and there are a few branches.

Went there with lilLilly producer Nanako, and Omatsu san from Majesty Japan.

To cut the story short, this is the the beef we had:

Eating Yakiniku itself is an art. It requires sufficient knowledge about the parts, the cut, and the skill of grilling. Given the best beef, if overgrilled, it would be an unforgivable waste. read more
