[Subang Jaya, PJ Kuala Lumpur] My weekend getaway to Da:Men

We drove up to Subang Jaya, PJ Kuala Lumpur again for a weekend getaway. Upon reaching, we chanced upon a newly opened shopping mall in USJ. This lifestyle shopping mall is named 'Da:Men', and it is chockfull with greats shops and restaurants for a fantastic shopping/dining experience.

Da:Men is the literal translation of 'Big Door' in Mandarin, and one can summarise that the mall was named such in order to have 'Doors of Prosperity' feel. Although the mall is located on the outskirts of KL town, the shopping concept is fresh and innovative,and provides the nicest retail therapy and dining experience to patrons.


 
At KOMONOYA, everything is priced under the single amount of RM5.30!!! It is an emulation of what Daiso is, but the added bonus is that KOMONOYA offers different Japanese products as compared to Daiso.











 
Check out the huge 'LIVE LOUD' sign within the mall, which is exactly what the mall is trying to convey to shoppers!

 
I was surprised to see PasarBella, an artisan concept marketplace from our homeland, Singapore, as one of the tenants in Da:Men.
 
 
Da:Men offers a myriad of selection of dining selections, from Lifestyle Food Hall called THE CANTEEN which operates using the cashless paying system to AKIBA, the 1-stop Japanese Food Street Concept Restaurant.



 
I picked up some beauty items from the mall, and they were the 2-way compact powder from touchinSOL and Quick Easy Eyeliner from Canmake. Both items cost me RM60 (est. SGD20).




 
Complimentary 2 small tubes of Pure Dew Water Drop BB Cream from touchinSOL were given to me with purchase.

 
Before I headed back to Singapore on the Sunday, we settled our lunch at Nam Heong Ipoh at Da:Men.
 

 
We had a delightful lunch and with the amount of food we ordered, the damage was pleasantly affordable at RM45 (est SGD15).




 

 
 
 I love the Glutinous Rice and Fried Prawn Fitter very much.

 
We headed back to Singapore straight after our lunch (hoping for no jam at both checkpoints *crossourfingers*)
 
 
I took some random photos at the highway, and I love my powerful Foresty.

Preview screening of Planes

Image
 Thanks Claressa for asking me along to join her for the preview screening of Planes at GV VivoCity.   --- Posters of Planes ---         I was thinking to myself during the show, has PIXAR run out of ideas to make a movie? This movie has all the hallmarks of a standard PIXAR movie, such as Cars/Wall-E/Toy Story, with the looks and graphics being the same.     The movie, Planes is a carbon copy of 'Cars' with both the films logo being similar. Oh well, seems like a rip off to me!       The film focuses on Dusty Crophopper (voiced by Dane Cook), an ambitious crop-dusting plane that predictably spends his days flying over tall grass spraying fertilizer. His dream is to become a racing plane, soaring high and racing around the world.   Though he is built not for flying this capacity but his biggest drawback is that he is afraid of height, as he gets used to flying at low heights.   Skipper Riley (voiced by Stacy Keach) i

Korea's No. 1 beauty brand, KUNDAL shower/hair products are now available in Singapore, and I am honored to try out their full series of shampoo, treatment, body wash and hair serum which includes a special gift from them - Bath Bombs! KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder. The scent still lingering in the bathroom for hours and it smells pleasant as well as not being over-powering. I love how my hair feels smooth after using each of the products.
