Monthly Project (April 2019)

#32 Products That I've Finished in 2019 (so far) Part I


I must admit, writing emptied post is 10 times fun than individual product review. It's like a 10-in-1 kinda post - like a summary on the products which I enjoyed or the other way round.

My mum was begging me to get rid of the "rubbish" which I've been collecting, so here we are - the products that I've finished in year 2019 (so far).


What you can expect from this post:
  • Products which I have emptied or discarded in year 2019 (so far);
  • Worth purchasing, or not.

[Restaurant] Dinner at Shoney's Dining & Bar

Even though this restaurant has been operating for years now,
and so many people have been recommending this dining place,
I haven't get the chance to visit.


Dinner at Shoney's Dining & Bar


- Address : Lot 52, Gaya Street, Pusat Bandar Kota Kinabalu, 88000 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.
- Operating Hours : 11AM - 11PM (daily)
- Contact : (+60) 088-297 228


We tried to bump into the restaurant last weekend,
but unfortunately it was fully booked for the night.


We learned our lesson by making reservation before heading to the restaurant.


Bringing my parents to this place and usually our family we have early dinner.


Our reservation was set on 7PM,
and we found out that it wasn't much dining in customers yet at this hour.


Dinner at Shoney's Dining & Bar


I love the idea how they decorated the place in the retro bar dining vibe.
Definitely a cozy place to chill after work with a friend or two.


We ordered two mains to share.


BBQ Ribs; Dinner at Shoney's Dining & Bar
BBQ Ribs, RM46.90

Tender pot-roasted ribs served in mouth-watering house blend smokey BBQ sauce.
Love the fact that the pork ribs just fell out the bone so easily.
The portion is so big; I can't finish by myself...



Fish & Chips; Dinner at Shoney's Dining & Bar
Fish & Chips, RM26.90

Marinated and battered fish fillet, deep fried to golden brown and served with tartar sauce and fries.
Love the fact that they use real fish fillet, not dory fish,
so you can taste the juiciness of fish meat.
The portion is also big and it's good that we were planning to share,
so no food waste at all.


Food wise, although the price tag is relatively higher than average,
I think it's still worth it,
considering the food quality, food portion and dining environment.


Definitely will revisit this place :)

[Review] Petitfee - Koelf Ruby and Bulgarian Rose Hydro Gel Eye Patch

Hello everyone! :)

I have been reviewing different variant of hydrogel eye patches from Petitfee for a while now, at least 3 variants for the record. Reason why I have so into hydrogel eye patches is because it is an instant moisture boost around eye areas.

Well, you do know that the very first aging sign is from the skin around your eyes, right?? If you don't know, now you know. :)


Review; Petitfee's Koelf Ruby and Bulgarian Rose Hydro Gel Eye Patch
Koelf''s Ruby & Bulgarian Rose Hydro Gel Eye Patch | 1.4g x 60ea


And do you know, once wrinkles are formed, it is much harder to get rid of it compared to preventing it to form.

So that's why it's super important to take extra care around your eyes as soon as early 20s.

Read on to find out what's my experience while using this Bulgarian Rose Hydro Gel Eye Patch from Koelf.

It's Spring! Hyeon's K-Pop Song Playlist

You know, it's either hot or rainy here in this tropical country where I'm staying. We don't have four seasons, but it's totally fine. :)

In order to get a glimpse of spring-feel, I will plug in the earphone and play my customized K-pop spring playlist.




*Not your ordinary playlist.


***


BTS "Just One Day"


Cute romantic lyrics and melody creating pinky-love bubbles in the air!



BTS (Jungkook) "Euphoria"


To me, spring is a season of happiness. Upbeat modern rhythm accompanied by Jungkook's amazing vocal - oh yes, "you are the cause of my euphoria~".



Infinite "Nothing's Over"


I must say, Infinite's songs in the early days are really sweet. Let us be reminded that nothing's over. It's alright to start again.



Infinite "Can U Smile"


There is a saying goes, "smile is the best medicine in the world". Put a smile on the face. You wouldn't know it would brighten up someone's day.



Taeyeon (feat. Verbal Jint) "I"


"My life is a beauty~" Powerful vocal and inspiring lyrics. Feel like going for a road trip after listening to this song.



Park Bom (feat. Sandara Park) "Spring (봄)"


After cold winter, it's spring again and flowers bloom. Park Bom's mesmerizing vocal gives listeners new hope this year.



Wanna One "봄바람 (Spring Breeze)"


The melody of this song really stands out - especially its chorus. Multi-layered vocal, but in sync. A soothing song to listen - as soothing as spring breeze.



 BLACKPINK "STAY"


Starting with a rather slow and gloomy melody, but following with a twist. The next thing you find is your body is moving along with the rhythm.



iKON "오늘 모해 (#WYD)"


It's true that spring is a season when hearts flutter. How to start a conversation? How about "hey, what are you doing"?



버스커 버스커 (Busker Busker) "벚꽃 엔딩 (Cherry Blossom Ending)"


I can imagine the cherry blossom petals are floating in the air and sunshine is shining gently on me while this song is playing~



K.Will "Love Blossom"


Okay. This is classic.
