NLC Wine & ROYCE' Chocolate Pairing @ ROYCE’ shop, Ben’s Independent Grocer, Publika~

Chocolate and wine, some said the pairing cannot be done, well the truth is with some effort & a bit of time in experimenting the right combination, it would be a match made in heaven. ^^ In order to create a genuinely exquisite experience of pairing two most historical revered tastes on the planet, premium Japanese  chocolatier ROYCE’ partnered up with Nam Lee Cheong Wine Shop to embark on a joyful gourmet journey, pairing different dark and milk chocolate varieties with carefully selected wines.

*Tips for successfully pairing wine with chocolate:

Smell wine..

Twirl wine in a glass & breathe in all of the aromas in a long, smooth whiff.

Smell chocolate..

Lightly rub the chocolate’s exterior, place towards the nose & smell to stimulate your senses.

Taste chocolate..

Take a small bite & rest the tongue for 10-15 seconds. Notice how different aspects of the chocolate’s composition melt at different times, & the highlight of multiple flavours via your senses throughout the experience.

Taste wine..

Take a sip of wine & sense the balance & complexity of the chocolate & wine on your palette. Move the chocolate around your mouth & lightly bite. 

Thanks to ROYCE' & NLC Sdn. Bhd. for the lovely gifts ^^

Nuffnang Premiere Screening: Thor - The Dark World movie review

“Some believe that before the universe there was nothing.. They're wrong, there was Darkness..”

After a couple of years the God of Thunder returns, this time to stand against an ancient dark force, trying to save the universe from a devastating destruction..

Story line: “Marvel’s Thor: The Dark World continues the big-screen adventures of Thor, the Mighty Avenger, as he battles to save Earth and all the Nine Realms from a shadowy enemy that predates the universe itself.  In the aftermath of Marvel’s ‘Thor’ and “Marvel’s ‘The Avengers’, Thor fights to restore order across the cosmos…but an ancient race led by the vengeful Malekith returns to plunge the universe back into darkness.  Faced with an enemy that even Odin and Asgard cannot withstand, Thor must embark on his most perilous and personal journey yet, one that will reunite him with Jane Foster and force him to sacrifice everything to save us all.”

When it comes to The Avengers superhero series of Marvel Studios films, an action blockbuster thriller is pretty much what to be expect, so being a sequel of Thor 2011, Thor: The Dark World does carry lots of expectation loads on its shoulder, and I can assure you Marvel fans out there this is a sequel that will not disappoint you. ^^ despite the luscious Asgardian action, stunning visual & audio and some endearing character beats, the affluent slightly twisted story line & perfect touch of humour is what I like the most about the movie, not to mention the sate-of-art CGI, a big hand for the production team. *clapclap*

Thor: The Dark World has proven itself to be as good as both the first movie (if not better) and it’s Avengers ally Iron Man 3 which came up earlier this year, a definite worth watching movie to end your October in a blast. A small reminder for the viewers, do stick around until the end as there’re not one but TWO after-credit scenes you wouldn’t wanna miss. :D      

Thnx to NuffnangMY fr d tics ^^
