Great Day Starts With Healthy Breakfast

Breakfast is the first meal we have in our everyday life, we all know how important is this but how many people actually have a healthy breakfast to start their day? 

A healthy breakfast doesn't have to be something expensive but something our body required to maintain it's excellent performance.
For Malaysian, we are spoilt with variety of breakfast choices, u can have Malay style / Chinese style / Indian style / Mamak style / Western style.... The list just goes on... Some people prefer to have a sip of joe or tea to start their day, while others prefer juices.

Studies however shows that milk is the elixir our body need for breakfast.
Milk contain calcium to develop strong bones and teeth. It is also a key for locking in bone mass for adult. Not only that, there is also a range of essential nutrients present in milk.
After 8-12 hours from your last meal a glass of milk provides the nourishment your body needs in the morning to regulate itself.

We all know the benefit of milk, but how many people actually consume enough milk for calcium?

For working adult like myself, i don't have long hour in the morning to prepare those complicated/challenging breakfast. Most people will probably skip breakfast because they are late, or they simply don't have the practice of having breakfast but not for me. I will always have breakfast no matter how late/busy i am. If i happen to wake up early then i will take a little sweet time to enjoy my breakfast before heading out. If i'm in a rush i will just grab a milk/bread for breakfast. I've never skip breakfast because that makes me sick.

I recently participated in the Dutch Lady 7days milk challenge! I felt happy because milk is my favourite drink for breakfast. I usually consume milk 3-4 times a week (because i'm not in the growing stage, taking more milk will just make me grow horizontal)

Sweet delivery to my work place!

T-Box Sungai Lembing

Sungai Lembing is a famous little town in Kuantan District, Pahang. The old tin mining town in the late 19th century has lost it's popularity since mining activities stop in the late 80s. Younger generation have moved to cities in search of job, the town has lost it's glory.

Today, Sungai Lembing has risen as a popular local tourism spot. Most checked-in spot includes Bukit Panorama (Panorama Hill) for sun rise and the Rainbow Waterfall.

Recently (not very recent, about a month ago) my colleague and i spent a night at this old town. A weekend trip is enough to explore this place and recharge to fight Monday blue~

We have choosen T-Box homestay, a fairly new accommodation Sungai Lembing. (Huge construction project still on-going during our visit. More units to support the demand)

 T-box reception office. The first place to visit when u arrive.

Direction

  • First, pour the powder on ur palm. i didn't pour the whole capsule at once, the picture above is only half a capsule is quite sufficient for each wash)
  • Next, add few drop of water and mix thoroughly.
  • Use it as the usual foam facial, massage gently over your face.
  • Rinse off with lukewarm water.



My Point of View

  • It does reduce blackheads on my face.
  • The foam is mild and soft, but with exfoliate effect! *suitable for people with sensitive skin*
  • The effect is visible!
  • Relatively easy to carry around especially travel. (Individually packed). I can just simply grab 1-2 capsule and bring along for my vacation.
  • Will try for about 1-2 times a week as it's an exfoliate product, not recommended to use on daily basis. (There might be other version of usage instruction online.



This the picture of Before using Suisai Clear Powder and after the cleanse just after one use! *Please ignore my imperfect face*
I can see that my face is less oily and (lots of) impurities is removed with just one try!

Underground Fireball RM 19.08
One of the most talked desserts in town! 
After it melted, it taste a little similar to those chocolate with liquor filling. i'm not impressed though.






Review : 
  • The Food & drinks is fresh and delicious
  • Variety of food available & plenty of extraordinary menu. Brilliant foodie idea.
  • The service is moderate, the staff seems not so patience on serving us.  
  • Clean dining environment and well hidden. It's pretty hard to locate the place at first glance. The first picture is the exterior of the shop and you can't really tell that's the cafe.
  • The price range is acceptable, which is almost similar to most of the cafe in Klang Valley.  (Price shown is inclusive of GST and no extra service charges on total bill.)
