Another week, another whirlwind of totally EXTRA events!
From having a kiki with the new face of Coway, to hanging out at Honda’s house – we were THERE, and we were vibing! Check out our social diary for this week (don’t be jelly!):
Honda Raya Open House
The Raya festivities are not over yet, people! Even if you’re not in the mood for a big celebration, who could say “no” to good food and company? That’s exactly what we found at Honda’s Raya Open House at Bangsar Shopping Centre, recently!
The Open House was hosted at the De.Wan 1958 Restaurant, owned by none other than Chef Wan. Not only was the atmosphere very welcoming, but the food was simply out of this world. Our mouths were watering at the sight of all the tantalising dishes and we couldn’t help but go back for seconds (okay, maybe a bit more than that). In other words, we had a blast!

In addition to celebrating its 17th anniversary, Coway Malaysia unveiled its refreshed brand identity with the spotlight on Mira Filzah as new local brand ambassador. Coway has expanded its product offerings to introduce the latest Coway Air Conditioner and Massage Chair.
What started out as a 6-month contract in 2020 has since blossomed, and the partnership between the brand and Mira has been a positive one. We caught up with 30-year-old actress, who talked about her favourite Coway product and how her lifestyle has improved since using it.

Durex Academy Open Day
When was the last time you had sex education? If it’s been ages, then here’s a chance for you to refresh your knowledge of the birds and the bees! With the rise in sexual activity amongst Malaysian youngsters, Durex, the #1 sexual well-being brand, took a bold step in launching the first ever Durex Academy. This academy is all about finding the right information and facts about sexual health, which we think is crucial these days.
Attending the launch, we got a preview of what the academy is all about. Held at the Grounds KL, Durex transformed the venue into a mini lecture hall filled with mind-blowing sex facts that we may (or may not) have known! The launch featured interactive educational exhibits, introduction of the ‘online lecturers’, and a panel discussion with a certified sexologist, Andre4a Koh and SPOT Malaysia founder, Siti Aishah.
On the platform, Durex Academy will cover topics such as consent and bodily autonomy, sexually-transmitted infection (STI) prevention and communication and relationship skills. What’s more interesting is that there will be Masterclass video sessions conducted by Durex Academy lecturers, Daphne Iking, Alex Chee and Alvy Joanna. As an added bonus, students of Durex Academy will receive a personalized e-cert and a mystery gift once they complete the S-Level exam online. Click here to know more about Durex Academy.

Nespresso Launches Vertuo Next
Nespresso, the pioneer of portioned coffee known for high-quality espresso, recently introduced the new Vertuo coffee brewing system in Malaysia, anchored by the state-of-the-art Nespresso Vertuo Next coffee machine. Launched at Mid Valley Megamall, we got an incredible chance to experience this latest innovation.
During the launch, we were invited to take a quick test to see which coffee best suits our personality – and we even got to redeem a cup of Vertuo range coffee. The brand-new system brings 37 aromatic, flavour coffee capsules – in its Espressos, Long Black, Barista Creations, and Craft Brew collection – to ensure there is a perfect cup for every palette. Powered by innovative Centrifusion™ technology and capsule recognition system, Nespresso Vertuo offers 37 coffee blends and single origins in a range of 6 cup sizes for coffee lovers to indulge in redefined coffee moments.

The best part is, in conjunction with the launch of the Nespresso Vertuo system, Nespresso Malaysia is hosting a launch event at Mid Valley Megamall from now till 21st May, where you can indulge in incomparable Vertuo coffee moments, complimentary tasting, as well as Instagrammable spots.
