Philips Road Show Events

You are definitely losing out!...

……if you haven’t heard of the Philips weekend events.

Consisting of cooking demo’s by famous chefs, free Philips items! And even better, FREE FOOOD! 

Delicious food cooked by celebrity chefs can only mean, innovative recipes in the nick of time.

All this? Guess what, its open to the public! Better hurry on down.

First and fore mostly, let me introduce Philips very own chef, Chef Fadzly Che Omar. 

He was previously one of my lecturer and I daresay he might just be
Malaysia's future celebrity chef :)

One of the most important theories he thought me was that “As a chef, one must always be humble and willing to share one’s knowledge. With that, only will others be willing to share their knowledge with you”.

Chef Fadzly always explains in depth, the details of his recipes. Despite them being so quick and simple!

And he shamelessly promotes and explains features of the Philips products used.
(Ps: you can also win the products if you take part in the challenges.)  

Well, that’s what makes a good ambassador, plus I now know lots more bout Philips products and why they are different from the rest.

Chef Fadzly’s infamous Ayam Masak Merah (Malay Style Red Chicken Curry)!

It looks delicious, yet when he cooked it; it looked so simple!
Pretty surprising from a malay cuisine dish?
The kick of the spiciness and blend of spices really makes his ayam masak merah one of a kind.

FREE TASTING, FREE FOOD.

When there is food, there will be Malaysians-lah! And sure enough, the minute any dish was served, the anxious crowd scurried towards the counter to get their share. 

Now tell me ONE good reason why didn't you drop by.

Not to worry! Philips has 2 on-going competitions every year now!

1) One is open to the public.

2) The other for college students. (Culinary Arts/Hotel Management students)

Prizes are irresistible, so you better get your ass into that kitchen and start trying to be an Iron Chef!

As for those who aren’t so savvy with the stove, come on down and check out the workshops and cooking demo’s. Soon you’ll be the talk among all your friends for that wonderful dinner last weekend.


In my opinion, this event was great and suitable for all (even if you’re not such a foodie).

I really would encourage anyone out there to give it a go, just because; there is so much to learn, see and TRY!

During the event, most items are given a special price. This means, DISCOUNTS! So don’t fret if you don’t win a prize, ‘cause you can still get something great at an even affordable price!'

This particular event always garners attention from the public. Whenever I head down, response is always booming. I have to fight just for a nibble. But after all the temptations of the aroma’s wafting about, it’s all worth it!

Drop on by the next time this event comes around, maybe we can have a yummy Philips bite together!
Philips offers a great, affordable, user-friendly and green line of products suitable for any home cook or first timers.

Sorry Jaya Grocer, i just wanted to see how well managed you people can be :P 

Malaysia Bartending Competition 2010

Last week, i went to Qba, Westin KL to catch the latest trend and action from the flashy world of Mixology.

Part of the nicely decorated bar, I dare say the bartenders would get more numbers working in this environment :P

One of the flairtenders in action. According to the rule book, participants were judged based on their flairtending skills, accuracy, speed and also mixology.

An interesting mixology by one of the contestant. Looks really appealing doesn’t it?

And the most interesting of all, there were specially made mixology with a price of only RM10 Nett for anyone to try!

Estralla(left) and Durado(right)

In my opinion, the Estralla tasted quite awful. I didn’t finish it because of the high alcohol volume and the chocolate ice cream did not get to balance down the flavour of the alcohol.

But on the other hand, the Durado tasted perfect! I would say it’s more of a feminine drink but the blend of ingredients was perfect to taste with the little bits of honeydew and dragon fruit to munch on. *Thumbs Up!*

Will probably R&D this cocktail when I’m free so that I could attract some girl with my mixology skills. :P

SKYY Vodka as one of the sponsor alongside Monin.

Will definitely be back to Qba another day for the chilling environment.

Overall the event was great, with a lot of support from the F&B industry people. The only thing I felt was bad is the bunting behind the portable bar. It made the event looked really cheap. Would prefer them to use a black background bunting something like the organizers T-Shirt.

Besides that, I wished I was the judge so that i could taste the current standards of mixology by the Malaysian bartenders.

To me, flairing is like performing arts, just like a cooking demo. It doesn’t mean you suck at bartending/cooking if you suck at performing to a large crowd.
So Kudos to the all the contestants :)
