Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken by Hao Yi Kang

Posted on November 23, 2018 by missuschewy

A very common question that many people like to ask me, “How do you juggle working full-time and being a mother of two young children?” Truth be told, there are days when I get super lethargic and moody. I am no superwoman after all. Over the past month, I have been consuming Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken which Hao Yi Kang is an exclusive distributor of, and I am able to feel the positive effects it has on me.

I may not be an expert at tasting chicken essence but having consumed a particular brand’s dark colored essence of chicken in glass bottles over the years, my first taste of Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken immediately won me over. The delicious flavor is derived from using 2nd generation hens that are at least 12 months old and boiled together with premium pork ribs for 8 hours. Premium pork ribs enhance the collagen content and add different layers of taste.

Traditional slow-boiling method incorporating advanced hydration technology is used, while small amount of water is added as a medium to help to fully extract the micro molecular and macro molecular nutrients from the ingredients during the extraction process. Nutritional tests have found that the level of protein is higher in chicken essence prepared by the slow-boiling method.

I like that Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken is packaged in a 4-layered opaque sachet exclusively imported from Japan. Similar to baby bottles, the inner packaging material is tested with no plasticizer and heavy metal residue thus making it very safe for our consumption. I choose the most convenient way of consuming Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken, which is by submerging the sachet in a bowl of hot water for a couple of minutes, and then drinking it straight from the sachet after tearing it open. The sachets are also flat, making it very easy for me to carry one to work every morning.

Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken is rich in protein, amino acids & collagen, contains 18 types of amino acids and is 100% natural (No preservative, no additives, no antibiotics, no plasticizer, no heavy metal residue, zero fats & cholesterol). The taste is also very natural, in fact, it tastes like very delicious and rich chicken soup! I can also feel the sticky texture on my lips, which is proof that there is collagen in Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken. The best time to consume this is in the morning, before breakfast. I feel alert throughout the day, and also don’t seem to keep forgetting things.

Voted 2018 Best Chicken Essence by Mummys Market Singapore, Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken is best for pregnant women as it helps in the growth of the baby, repair cells and tissues in the body and provides fetal support. Post-natal, it aids in wound healing and also boost milk supply. As Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken has a very high protein content, it is suitable for daily nourishment and also supplementation during recuperation. I would highly recommend it to students, working adults and the elderly for boosting immune system and combating fatigue. With a shelf life of 18 months after manufacturing without preservatives, Lao Xie Zhen Premium Boiled Essence of Chicken makes a very meaningful gift for the people you truly care for.

In proud partnership with Taipei’s 55th Golden Horse Award Ceremony, limited sets of Golden Horse Chicken Essence gift sets (7 packs) are available here at a discount! Be sure to grab some!

What to do on a weekend without children

Posted on September 22, 2018 by missuschewy

Your children are the best thing in life, they bring joy and make you happy. However, it’s often difficult to reconcile family life, professional life and marriage or couple, all at the same time. That’s why we think it’s good from time to time to take a break from everything and have a weekend to focus on ourselves. Are you so used to being with children that you can’t think of what to do alone? Here are some ideas.

Get out of the city. You don’t need to go very far, just stay away to see things in perspective. Find a good hotel and indulge yourself. Singapore hotels offer many amenities, you can find from the cheapest options to the most comfortable ones. And how about going to a spa? Your body needs to relax from everyday life and you’ll surely relish it very much. Besides, your skin will look great after that.

Read a book. Let’s be honest, since the children were born, your reading time has been dedicated to them. You deserve to read more than just children’s stories and fairy tales, but at the end of the day you feel so exhausted that you are not able to do anything for yourself. Now you have the moment. Look for that book you’ve been wanting to read for a long time and make the most of it! The same thing you can do with a movie, what happened to the horror films that you liked so much? Now you can take them up again.

Go for a walk. Singapore is full of places to visit and it’s always a good time to do it. Gardens by the Bay has become a major tourist attraction in the Asian country. This spectacular park is part of the policies to make a city within a garden. All this with the purpose of improving the quality of life by surrounding itself with plants and fauna. The large greenhouses attract attention, with their incredible biodiversity, and the giant artificial trees covered with vegetation, from which the Skyway OCBC starts. One of those places worth getting lost.

And if you still don’t know what to do on your weekend without children, you can also make couple plans. A romantic dinner or a getaway for two may be what you both need to leave the stress behind. Everything is possible!

Explaining the 4 Basics of a Skin Care Routine

Posted on August 29, 2018 by missuschewy

Most people want to have beautiful skin since it’s the part of the body that’s most visible to the rest of the world. Women buy products like Beauty by Earth in order to feel better about their skin. When we’re young, our skin is youthful and vibrant so we don’t need to take care of it every night. However, at a certain age, the skin starts to age or become dry and dull so it’s important to maintain a nightly routine.

If it’s your first time to learn about skin care and you want to know more about it, then the first thing you need to remember is that the most important part of skin care is removing makeup, oil, and dirt. Cosmetics, pollution and the oil that allows them to slip into your pores have to be removed before going to bed. Sleeping with dirt on your face would end up creating breakouts and acne, which is why basic skin care routines should be done before bedtime.

If you’re just beginning your own skincare routine, it’s advisable to just start with the four basic ones: cleansing, toning, moisturizing and sunscreen. At night, you only need the 3 unless you’re planning to replace the sunscreen or sunblock with night cream. Some people use a day cream with SPF protection instead of just sunscreen, and night cream before bedtime. It’s important to know the distinction between the day and night cream since the day creams are supposed to be washed off and the night creams are supposed to stay on until the next morning.

Another thing to remember is that your skin care routine should be dependent on what age you start. If you’re planning to start in your 20’s then the basic 4-step routine would do; if you’re in your 30’s then you need to start applying serums; and when you’re in your 40’s, you’d need to add wrinkle removers and target correctors to your routine.

Here are the 4 basic skin care steps to start on your routine:

1. Cleansing

The first step in your skin care routine should be cleansing. There are a variety of makeup removers and cleansers at your disposal. Most people use more than one type of cleanser to make sure that all dirt, cosmetics, and oil are removed before you put anything else on your face. Once you make sure that everything is clean, you can move on to the next step of your routine.

2. Toning

The second step is toning your face. Some toners act as astringents or cleansers, removing the rest of the substances in preparation for your moisturizer. It acts as one final cleanup and hydration before you cover your pores with a moisturizing cream. The toner also prepares your skin for other products such as essences, serums, and masks, should you decide to add those to your routine in the long run.

3. Moisturizing

The third step is moisturizing and making sure your skin is hydrated. Having soft and supple skin is important before applying makeup or getting to bed. The moisturizer allows your skin to relax after being subjected to harsh acids from the cleansers and toners. When your skin is relaxed, it becomes easier to heal and upkeep.

4. Final Cream

The last step is the finishing touches on your skin care, either a day or night cream. If you’re doing skin care on the daytime then you should add SPF or sunblock, or choose a day cream with sunscreen. If you’re treating your skin at night then you can apply night cream and skip the sunblock.

If it’s your first time then it’s important to remember that skin care is a process. You’re not going to get a perfect skin on the first week or so, and sometimes the change in your skin won’t be evident until months of diligent daily and nightly application of toners and creams. However, you’ll quickly notice the difference between the skin you neglected and the current skin that you’re taking care of. Eventually, you’ll need to move past the basics and add a few more products into your routine until you accomplish the goals you have set for your skin.

North Borneo Cruises in Kota Kinabalu

Posted on July 28, 2018 by missuschewy

There are many things to see and do in Kota Kinabalu, and embarking on North Borneo Cruises will give you an unforgettable experience of a lifetime, sailing across the South China Sea, while indulging in an International buffet with live entertainment onboard.

The North Borneo Cruises is the first of its kind in Sabah, taking guests on a 2-hour scenic cruise past the islands of Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine park and down the central coast gliding along the city’s famous Waterfront. There are two different sessions daily starting from 4:30pm to 7:00pm for the Sunset Dinner Cruise and from 7:30pm to 9:45pm for the KK Night City Buffet Dinner Cruise.

Since we were travelling with a bunch of kids, the earlier timing for the sunset cruise worked better for all of us, plus we wanted to catch the beautiful sunset for a more memorable exxperience!

Boarding North Borneo Cruises! Passengers in baby strollers or wheelchairs can board the cruise via the ramp.

We were first ushered to the main deck and shown to our respective tables. The International buffet spread was already waiting for us! Haha.

Free flow coffee, tea and water are included. Currently, there is Happy Hour promotion of 50% off beverages, not applicable for peak season, public holidays and eve of public holidays. Terms and conditions apply.

All guests had to be seated and listen to the important safety briefing before we were allowed to roam around.

Complimentary orange juice and Muruku fish crackers were served to all tables. We really like the intimate and cosy dining setting.

Dinner is served! The variety is very wide and you will definitely get to eat your fill.

North Borneo Cruises’ resident band offers daily stellar live musical performances in different genres and languages while you enjoy your sumptuous dinner. Feel free to join in the fun and dance the night away! The band also accepts song requests.

Guests are welcome to explore the remaining decks and snap many photos while they are at it.

Even the North Borneo Cruises staff all seem to have plenty of fun! Their energy is simply infectious!

The sun-deck is very popular as it offers a beautiful unobscured view of the sea and beyond.

If you want to catch a glimpse of sunset, be sure to arrive at the sun-deck early to grab a good spot. We enjoyed the sea breeze blowing in our faces.

Even without joining the KK City Night Dinner Cruise, we could still experience nightfall while out at sea.

If you have a large group or celebrating a special occasion, North Borneo Cruise offers private VIP room which seats 20 to 25 pax comfortably, and the room is also equipped with a karaoke system.

North Borneo Cruises is offering a Buy 3 Free 1 promotion, book and enjoy by 30th December 2018. For more information on the cruise and rates, visit their website here.

We have come to the end of our Kota Kinbalu series of blog posts! We would like to sincerely thank the following for their kind hospitality and for making this trip a splendid one for all of us:

Flights – AirAsia
Accommodation – Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa
Activities – Sabah Tourism Board

THANK YOU! 🙂

Manukan Island in Kota Kinabalu

Posted on July 23, 2018 by missuschewy

In one of my earlier posts documenting our Sabah holiday trip, Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa is our highly recommended choice of accommodation especially for families with children because of the wide range of kid-friendly amenities. Apart from that, private jetty STAR Marina is exclusively owned and operated by the resort, offering guests easy accessibility to neighbouring islands for day trips and beach activities. If you have some hours to spare, you can take the speedboat shuttle to Manukan Island!

It was the girls’ first time taking a speedboat. Little misschewy was totally enjoying the ride while Mini misschewy was a little scared and clung onto Daddy. Life vests were provided before we set off and the journey was just a short 5 to 10 minutes.

Manukan Island is the second largest island in Tunku Abdul Rahman Park. It was mood-lifting to see the sandy white beach and pristine clear waters when we set foot on the island.

If you like to unwind at the beach, Manukan Island is a great choice. Besides sandcastle-building for young children, scuba diving, snorkelling, kayaking and parasailing are just some of the many activities that one can do at Manukan Island.

Great bonding session for families and nice sensory experience for little kids.

For visitors who want to escape from the heat at Manukan Island, there are many benches lined up along the beach with ample shade from the trees. There are also some shops and cafes selling snacks and drinks.

We had lunch at a cafe to fill our hungry tummies before returning to our resort.

If you love the sun, sand and sea, you definitely have to visit Manukan Island when you head to Kota Kinabalu!

Mari Mari Cultural Village Kota Kinabalu

Posted on July 20, 2018 by missuschewy

We travel for a myriad of reasons. Apart from travelling as a form of escapism and to rejuvenate ourselves, we also seek to gain knowledge that you cannot get just by reading books. During our recent trip to Sabah, a visit to Mari Mari Cultural Village provided us with the opportunity to see and experience for ourselves, the culture and lifestyle of how the indigenous ethnic groups of Borneo used to live in the olden days when electricity had not yet been introduced in their land. Mari Mari Cultural Village is situated amidst a remote forest setting in Kionsom, Inanam; away from the hustling and bustling Kota Kinabalu city. The village operates as a museum that preserves Borneo ethnic culture with the aim to share knowledge, history, culture, and tradition of Borneo with visitors so that it is not forgotten.

Mari Mari Cultural Village features 5 different ethnic tribes. They are the rice farmer Kadazan-Dusun, the longhouse resident Rungus, the hunters and fisherman Lundayeh, the cowboy and sea gypsey Bajau, and the famously feared headhunting tribe Murut. I find it interesting that the village’s in-house guides are actually descendants of among the 5 tribes in the village.

Our journey began with all of us crossing the wobbly suspension bridge over a small river.

Our in-house guide showed us around each of the different tribe houses to learn about their different lifestyles, cultures, and histories.

Not only did we get to witness how bamboo was used to cook their meals, we even got to taste the food!

Montoku is a traditional alcoholic drink of the Kadazan-Dusun community and I find that it tastes like whisky!

Delicious fresh honey.

All the tribe houses feature something similar like this. The girls would sleep on the upper deck and their fathers would remove the ladders at night.

We were truly amazed that a fire could be started in less than 5 minutes using bamboo! Back then, it was the ladies’ job and we could tell that it is actually physically tiring.

Rope making demonstration.

Little misschewy wanted to bring this “bracelet” home! LOL.

The Murut blow-pipe was a pretty fun experience for all of us. It is a bit like archery except that you use your mouth to hit your target!

Looks easy but it’s not! In the olden days, the blow-pipe was used as a weapon.

The Lansaran is like a traditional trampoline made from bamboo and much to our surprise, it can carry a lot of weight.

More than 10 people jumping on the lansaran? No problem!

After visiting the 5 tribal houses, we proceeded to the event hall to watch the traditional performances.

My favorite was the bamboo dance as I was captivated by how gracefully the dancers step in and out of the bamboo poles.

Little misschewy and I took part in the bamboo dance too. All I can say that it is a lot harder than it looks but it was a fun experience!

During the 2-hour tour around Mari Mari Cultural Village, we felt as though we were transported back in time, as we enriched ourselves in new found knowledge. Being able to participate in some of the activities was indeed an authentic experience that we will never forget. Click here to find out more about the itinerary and price if you are keen!

Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa, Kota Kinabalu

The Chewys had a fabulous and unforgettable three-night stay at Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa when we travelled to Kota Kinabalu two weeks ago. Apart from its close proximity of around 6.5km from Kota Kinabalu Airport, Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa is located just 10 minutes away from the city. For families with young children, the resort’s ideal location serves as a convenient base for exploring Borneo’s rich cultural heritage.

Just two and a half hours by air from Singapore, we flew with AirAsia and arrived Kota Kinabalu without any hiccups. Upon stepping into Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa, we were warmly greeted with nice refreshing welcome drinks and were then led the way to our rooms at the Kinabalu Wing.

It was a pleasant surprise for all of us when we entered our Kinabalu Club Family Room. The kids were particularly excited by the children’s room. Each Family Room offers 66 square meters of luxury and comfortably accommodates 2 adults and 2 children, with plenty of extra space. All guests of Kinabalu Club rooms will get to enjoy personalised services and added privileges such as complimentary daily buffet breakfast, complimentary beverages all day, and evening drinks with predetermined hours, at the Kinabalu Club Lounge.

We appreciate waking up to the beautiful and tranquil sea view from our hotel room every morning.

The children’s room is equipped with a bunk bed and child-friendly furniture. One can also expect children’s amenities and welcome packs.

Little misschewy and Mini misschewy were so excited that they clambered up the bunk bed and made themselves comfortable there while misterchewy and I checked out the parents’ room with balcony, ensuite bathroom with extra towels, separate shower and soaking tub.

The kids were allowed to watch cartoon every morning and night, but only because we were on holiday!

The Kinabalu Club Lounge is where most of the magic happens! We had our breakfast there every morning during our stay. We loved the experience as it was exclusive to Club room guests and we received detailed attention from the staff.

I was too occupied with eating that I forgot to take photos. The breakfast buffet spread at the Kinabalu Club Lounge is actually very impressive! We had smoked salmon, seafood congee, potato wedges, sauteed mushrooms, sushi, omelette, along with various buns and pastries. The kids usually chose bread or cereal with milk.

We also got the opportunity to have dinner at Shang Palace with the lovely Comms ladies Claudina and Daphne.

Living up to its name, the food at Shang Palace was delectable and exquisite. We chatted and ate to our hearts’ content. Some of my favorites include the Marinated Cantonese “Qingyan” Chicken, Braised Beancurd with Assorted Mushrooms, Stir-fried Sliced Grouper Fillets with Ginger, Scallions and Pepper, and Dry Butter Style Crab. The kids were not forgotten and had comforting bowls of minced pork porridge with salted egg and dough fritters on the side. Shang Palace is definitely a family-friendly restaurant in Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa that serves quality food.

*Ahem..* And if the other half allows, adjourn to the Kinabalu Club Lounge for complimentary evening drinks. The husband was thrilled to see a variety of alcoholic beverages such as beer, whisky and hard liquor. Of course he had the company of a fellow Daddy friend as his drinking partner while the mummies stayed in the rooms to take care of the little ones.

Mummies need their “me time” too and there is no better way to pamper ourselves than indulging in a spa session at CHI, The Spa!

The spa design concept is certainly very unique, with a standalone spa village sitting on an island connected to the hotel by a private causeway. It is also interesting to note that traditional Borneo treatments on the spa menu are plant-based in nature, energy aware and reflect the multi-cultural heritage of the region.

Advance booking prior to treatment time is recommended. Spa wear will be provided in your treatment suite.

CHI, The Spa has a very comprehensive spa menu offering five categories of treatments – Wellness Journeys, Body Treatments (Scrubs), Body Treatments (Wraps), Massages and Facial Treatments. If you are a mummy like me, who often feel tightness in the back, neck and shoulders, I highly recommend the Signature Malaysian Re-energizing Massage! My therapist Zetty was very skillful in easing out all the tight knots within the one hour session.

If an hour is all you can spare, I say, go for the massage and you will definitely not regret it! I felt so rejuvenated and alive after the session!

Happy mummies who couldn’t wait to get back to the kids!

It was reassuring to know that our kids had a ball of fun at the Cool Zone when the mummies were away at the spa!

Upon entering the Cool Zone, the beautifully hand-painted walls, featuring aquatic and land animals found only in Sabah, provide a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for both children and their parents.

Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa provides babysitting services at MYR 30 per hour for children aged five and above only when the Kids Club is not open. It is advisable that bookings are to be made at least one day in advance. Parents can drop their children off anytime between 10am to 6pm and the resort’s professionally trained, English speaking staff will supervise and keep the children entertained while parents relax in the sun or explore the sights of Sabah.

The Cool Zone is divided into different areas such as the toddler section, creativity area for painting and craftwork, and the computer & TV room.

I’m glad that the husband managed to snap some photos as evidence that Little misschewy and Mini misschewy enjoyed playing with the toys at the Cool Zone!

The first and only one of its kind in Borneo, the water play area at Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa comprises of a dedicated section for toddlers, teenagers and an interactive area for all ages. Guests of all ages can enjoy the theme-park-quality water slides measuring a total length of 100 metres. Other fun facilities include water battle stations with water balloon launchers, a 2,000-sqm swimming pool with a tapered shoreline for children and an infinity pool section for adults.

Due to our packed itinerary, we didn’t have much time to explore the beautiful resort but we managed to squeeze time out after breakfast for a couple of photos.

Teddy Bear Museum Pattaya

Posted on July 8, 2018 by missuschewy

Contrary to popular belief, there are actually plenty of children-friendly activities in Pattaya. As our flight back was scheduled in the late evening, we managed to squeeze in a trip to Teddy Bear Museum Pattaya in the morning. I had been to the one in Korea many years back and loved it so much because I really have a soft spot for all things cute!

The girls like to cuddle teddy bears too so I knew I had to include Teddy Bear Museum Pattaya in our itinerary!

This is the first and only museum in Southeast Asia which is located on an area over 2,500 square meters and is divided into 12 zones as follows: Inca Zone, Dinosaur Zone, Fossil Zone, Africa Zone, Thailand Zone, Under the Sea Zone, Eskimo Zone, Santa Town Zone, Space Zone, Fairytale Zone, China Zone and Europe Zone. Shall leave you to enjoy the photos!
