frezfruta Archives - A Winsome Life

It’s 4 more days to the supposedly “End of The World” [EOTW], 8 more days to Christmas, 15 days to the New Year, and 16 days to my 1st day of work in the new year. On a side note, our current giveaway of a bottle of Moscato D’Asti by G.D. Vajra, Italy is ending in 3 days time and we’re happy to announce that Jason Koh is currently in the lead for the giveaway. +Claps Claps+.
I [Melvin] just came back from a really tiring but fruitful sponsored trip with the Nuffies at Awana Genting and I will be blogging about it soon; so do keep a lookout for that blog entry because you will discover another different side of Genting apart from the usual casino, food, and accommodation!

Anyways, we’re not sure if anyone remembered about the Gold Kili & Frezfruta Challenge that we previously embarked on but if you don’t know, worry not because you can check out our Blog entry about it via the following link: https://awinsomelife.org/2012/11/15/lion-citys-bloggers-challenge-medzs-millenia-walk/

Since the Bloggers’ Challenge has officially ended, Lion City Distributions hosted an appreciation dinner at J.K Don Cafe & Bar for all the Bloggers whom were involved and it was a fabulous evening indeed.

J.K Don currently has two outlets in Singapore, one at Shaw Tower and the other one at Telok Kurau. Both their outlets serve Japanese and Korean cuisine.

J.K Don Cafe & Bar at Telok Kurau has a cosy alfresco dining area where you can just chill and catch up with your colleagues/friends over some drinks and snacks. They even screen live soccer matches too!

If you’re not into soccer, you can also have some fun with the in-house board games that J.K Don Cafe & Bar provides.

and the Grand Winner of the Bloggers’ Challenge is none other than Celestial Delish! +Claps Claps+. The gentleman whom presented the prize was the owner of Sin Sin [remember the Sin Sin Kaya that comes in a metal tin that we always eat for breakfast?]

The dinner ended with a blast and we really want to thank Lion City Distributions for the fantastic dinner that we had and the kind invitation to participate in their Blogger’s Challenge. Celestial Delish really deserves the grand prize because she came out with quite a number of recipes using Gold Kili‘s Coffee and Frezfruta Jams as ingredients!

Just check out one of Celestia Delish‘s creation using Frezfruta’s Apple Blueberry Jam via the following link:

Thanks to Faith from Brand Cellar and also Lion City Distributions Private Limited, we [both Baby and I] were invited to a blogger challenge that kicked off at MEDZS [a restaurant that serves Mediterranean cuisine].
What’s The Bloggers Challenge About?
Essentially, both Baby and I are to be extremely creative with how we are going to share some information about Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products with all you readers. This challenge would last for 14 days which would be till 23 November 2013 and hence, we are left with 8 more days to spread the good news about Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products.

Well, in this blog entry, we will be sharing with you about the fantastic dinner we had at MEDZS and also a little bit about Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products. In fact, we will elaborate more about Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products in our next few upcoming blog entries. Also, do check out some photos of Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products that we uploaded to Instagram as well.

So, when we arrived at MEDZS, we were given a “mystery bag” which contained the various Gold Kili and Frezfruta Products.

Well, in the mystery bag that was given to us, we took out two Gold Kili Products which we believe are all-time local favourites; the Instant Double Shot White Coffee and the Kopi-O Kosong. And you know the coffee you drink in almost every Kopitiam? Well, some of them uses the Gold Kili brand and we will elaborate more on this in our next blog entry.

Meanwhile, here’s what we had for dinner last Friday night.

Morning Glory Mocktail– certainly reminded me of my time at Shatec Institutes where we constantly have to memorise the concoctions for the different mocktails and cocktails for our bar showmanship test.

Well, it was our first time trying out Mediterranean Cuisine and to be honest, for us to do a review about the food that we had at MEDZS wouldn’t be fair till we had a taste of other Mediterranean food from other Mediterranean restaurants. Nevertheless, we find the quality of the food to be ok, and the presentation of the food to be above average. The restaurant also has an Al Fresco dining area which really provided a pretty cool chill-out ambience.

The best part is, MEDZS has 100 over different types/kinds of beers from all over the world! Now, that is something to rave about!
