GUINNESS® Bold Truck: A Toast to those who are Made of More



It’s 7 pm at the office and you’re still not ready to go home as there’s still a long way to go before you could call it a day, you get yourself a cup of coffee & with a long sigh another overtime marathon begins.. Working overtime, some said it’s a good thing as you’re putting in more effort in work which is a sign of hardworking & commitment. With that being said, the big question of “Overtime = hardworking or hardly working?” is still a much debatable topic. One thing for sure is that long hours of OT day in and day out just isn’t how life should be..

What are you made of? Made a bold move to leave work on time & reward yourself with a pint of GUINNESS®
Life rewards the Bold ;)

Nothing could be more gratifying than leaving work on time & reward yourself with a pleasing pint of the world’s most iconic black brew, GUINNESS®, serving up icy cold right outside your work place, and to make it even better--- the pint is on the house! Sounds too good to be true? Well that’s exactly what the GUINNESS® ‘Made of More’ campaign is all about. ^^

“The idea came from an insight that Malaysians typically do not leave work on time and tend to work late most days. GUINNESS® is a brand that inspires people to make bold choices, and this campaign is a reaffirmation of that principle. The decision to leave work on time is just one example of a bold move that our consumers make, and it shows that they are truly men and women who are ‘Made of More’,” said Bruce Dallas, Marketing Director of Guinness Anchor Berhad.

GUINNESS® #MadeofMore Truck @Malones, Sooka Sentral.

Cruising across the city starting from May, last Friday the #MadeofMore truck was in place outside Malones @Sooka Sentral, which opened up at 17:59 - GUINNESS® time to reveal the bar hidden inside, while beautiful GUINNESS® brand ambassadors serving up pleasurable pint of iconic black brew to those bold ones who were Made of More and leaving work on time. ^^

And here's the best way to spend a Friday night- Leave work early, grab some nice food + a pint of GUINNESS® iconic black brew~ ^^
leave work on time & join us for a toast for great life~ ^^

GUINNESS® believes life rewards the bold! #MadeofMore :) 

Fancy for a pint of your own? Well good news as the GUINNESS® Made of More Truck will be travelling to several other locations around the Klang Valley to reward bold and deserving GUINNESS® consumers. Be bold, leave work on time and be rewarded. Having said that, before leaving work on time, do ensure that work is completed and it wouldn’t hurt to ask your bosses and colleagues along. The #MadeofMore Truck will be @ The Scott Garden, Old Klang Road on 16th of May (Friday, 17:59 onwards, 6PM – 7PM). For more information, log on to >Guinness® Malaysia FB here< or https://www.madeofmore.com.my

Goku Raku Ramen l 極樂らーめん @Mid Valley Megamall



Hey what’s up foodies, the ramen series is back, this time bring you the "Horikiri Style" ramen from Goku Raku Ramen outlet located at one of Malaysia's favourite shopping destinations- Mid Valley Megamall. For those who missed the previous ramen reviews, simply click >here: Marutama Ramen @Fahrenheit 88<  & >here: Hokkaido Ramen Santouka@Pavilion KL< for a quick recap ;)

Thanks to the lovely invite from Goku Raku Ramen & Ivy, I had a chance to attend a pretty lavish food review at the GRR Mid Valley outlet where several signature ramen together with some delightful appetizers, katsu etc. were served. ^^ 

Goku Raku Ramen l 極樂らーめん@ Lot S25 & S26, Level 2, Mid Valley Megamall.
Warm specious interior @ Goku Raku Ramen, Mid Valley Megamall outlet.

perhaps the most attention attention drawing thing at Goku Raku Ramen outlet @Mid Valley Megamall-- the sophisticated (& extremely expensive according to the chef ^^) ramen-making machine which supply freshly made ramen to all the GRR outlets on daily basis.
The nicely printed menu.

And here comes the stars of the night, the 5 Star Kakuni Ramen & the 5 Star Aburi Char Siew Ramen. Both consist of a generous portion of ramen topped with spring onion, bean sprout, bamboo shoot, soft & smooth lava egg, black garlic oil and delectable homemade braised pork belly (for Kakuni ramen) / mouth-watering roasted char siew (for Aburi Char Siew ramen).    

5 Star Kakuni Ramen (R). RM 26.90
5 Star Aburi Char Siew Ramen (R). RM 25.90

One thing to be highlight at Goku Raku Ramen would be the unique Tonkotsu soup, a creamy & rich soup make up by a well mixed broth of palatable pork, chicken & fish, as well as the japanese Shio (salt) and Shoyu (soy sauce). This is so far the most ample pork base ramen soup that I've tasted, a must try for heavy tasters and pork lovers.


Tan Tan Ramen. An alternative for those who doesn't like their noodles to be too soupy. RM 13.90
GRR Meatballs. Crispy skin with soft juicy fillings, the luscious sweet sauce might be too much for me but some of the girl bloggers fell deep in love with it. ;) RM 5 (5pcs) RM 9 (10 pcs) RM 17 (20pcs) 
Yaki Gyoza. RM 9.90 

For group/family dining, chef’s special course meal which comes with a great deal of dishes is something to be consider if you’re looking for more than an a-la-carte order. Do take note that the chef’s special course meal are only available after 6pm as it takes longer preparation time in serving the meal :) 

Chef’s Special Course Meal Set C (3-4 pax). RM 119.90

Some close up shots for the dishes available in the chef’s special course meal we tried: 


Aburi Char Siew (L) & Utsunomiya Sui Gyoza. The soft & literary melt in your mouth Char Siew is still my favourite ramen item. b^^d
Crispy Shrimp Mayo, Tori Momo Karaage & Pork Loin Rei Shabu (L to R). Love the fresh juicy bouncy shrimp with almost impossible to fail mayo. b^^d 
Ebi Chili, Sweet & Sour Pork and Siew Mai (L to R).
Mini Ramen, Sesame Ball and Chef Recommended Salad (L to R).  

Last but not least, thanks to the good folks from Goku Raku Ramen, Jz.World's readers get a 50 % off for the chewy GRR meatballs, simply print out the voucher below and present it while making your order. ;)

Nuffnang Premiere Screening: The Amazing Spider-Man 2



Marvel superhero return to the big screen once again, this time with a 2 hours + blockbuster action thriller of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Heading back to a premiere screening after quite some time, the first thing that came to my mind while entering the theatre was: how amazing can Spider-Man be? Being the most filmed Marvel superhero, could Director Marc Webb’s spider-Man escape the web of familiar storyline & cliché..


Storyline: “We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2™, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead. It's great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realise that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp.” (c) Columbia Pictures     



Overall The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is pretty much similar to its blockbuster debut in 2012, a perfect modern Hollywood blockbuster franchise film. With that being said, despite the stunning visual & sounds, there’s still more to be expect in the movie thanks to the strong performances from the entire cast. Having real-life couple Andrew Garfield & Emma Stone gives a great boost in chemistry to the movie & the ‘slightly-deviate-from-the-original’ story line involving Peter Parker's parents is indeed a good attempt. The first-person shots of spidey featured and some of the big exciting action scenes of Electro were pretty entertaining, and the character of Spider-Man which made more human does worth some extra credits.      

Though The Amazing Spider-Man 2 wasn’t an outstanding masterpiece still this it is indeed an entertaining & enjoyable action thriller. It is nice to see Spider-Man onscreen again. :)

Thanks to NuffnangMY for the invites. Check out the backdrop,

Rating: 7.3/10~
