2018 Top 10 Movies, Rawlins GLAM, Movie Review by Rawlins, Black Panther, The Incredibles 2, Game Night, Skyscaper, Avengers Infinity War, Ant Man and the Wasp, The Greatest Showman, A Quiet Place, Justice League, Commuter

It's almost August and I just think I just share about the top 10 movies in my list (so far). Some movies might have been released at the end of 2017 but only aired in Malaysia on 2018, so I considered them at 2018's movie.
These are all the movies that I have watched and again, I would like to remind all of you - these are the Rawlins GLAM's Top 10 Movies in 2018 (So Far).

10. Game Night Stars Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams where a game night turns into a crime, without the players realising it until the very last minute. The movie was funny and there are a few twists in the plot that keeps you thinking 'which is which?'

2018 Top 10 Movies, Rawlins GLAM, Movie Review by Rawlins, Black Panther, The Incredibles 2, Game Night, Skyscaper, Infinity War, Ant Man and the Wasp, The Greatest Showman, A Quiet Place, Justice League

9. The Incredibles 2 Left hanging 14 years ago when The Incredibles was released, this sequel was the most anticipated movie, for me. I just want to know what will happen to Jack Jack and how will his powers manifest. After watching it, I was a bit let down as I was expecting more - more characters, more actions and more powers.

8. The Commuter

Who would have thought your daily routine riding the commuter will turn out to be the most exhilarating and mind-boggling ride ever? Liam Neeson, for one, didn't see it coming, for sure.

7. Justice League If only the movie was longer, I will be more satisfied but I know it is hard to combine 5 great heroes into a two-hour movie. This one is basically a tease of more to come.
6. Skyscraper Call me bias but I think that Dwayne Johnson could do no wrong when it comes to movie choices. It was just simply amazing - a veteran with an amputated leg saving his family in the world's most tt building - the action was amazing.

5. Avengers: Infinity War Again, you can call me bias as I am a superhero movie lover. And this huge production can do no hero any justice as I think the movie might as well runs for 4 hours and I will still be there, wanting more actions from all the characters. Hurry up and bring the sequel, please!
4. A Quite Place Oh man. This movie made me curses throughout the movie. And I have to curse in silent mode as the whole hall was so silent, even a sound of popcorn munching feels like a sin.

3. The Greatest Showman

I just love this one - the musical and the performance was fabulous. I don't care whether it is true or not - I love the songs and the acting! Superb! Encore! I watched it 5 times already!

2. Ant-Man and the Wasp Heroes come in all sizes - these mini ones are adorable. How will he get out from the micro-world, I just can't wait to find out.
1. Black Panther So far, Black Panther is my number one movie - the language, the action and the plot are simply superb. And then he dies in Infinity War! Why!!!!

Those are my Top 10 movies of 2018. Did I mention any of your favourite up there? Share yours here too ok. Rawlins GLAM

In the fast-and-dynamic-evolving world of technology, it is very hard to keep oneself abreast of the changes. One minute, a particular model of a mobile phone is the most sought after. And not even a blink after, comes another one with more amazing and functional features.
So, what do I do keep myself looks stylish and up-to-date with the current trend in technology? I just change the outer looks of my mobile phone and its accessories.

hoco, hoco.malaysia, Mobile Phone Accessory, Rawlins GLAM, RawlinsXTech,

Luxurious looking and moderately priced mobile phone accessories are not easy to find. I know there are a lot of online and offline shops that sell amazing accessories but I would rather have my hands on the items first and inspect them for suitability and fashion sense before purchasing them. Because, everything will always look lovely online (hahaha), but the physical product might not be necessarily as beautiful.
In my journey of looking for that extra stylish mobile casing, powerbank and usb cables, I have come across "hoco." a few times. And I brace myself to try out one of its stylish usb cable. My verdict?

Stylish - Checked

Functional - Checked

Durability - Checked

So, when I heard that Cosmos Online Sdn Bhd is introducing "hoco." and launching Hoco O2O Retail Concept Store in Low Yat Plaza, I rushed over to see what Hoco has to offer.

What is "hoco."?

“hoco.” is an international premium lifestyle accessories brand from Hong Kong Haoco (hoco.) Technology Co., Ltd, which is dedicated to the development of high-quality digital accessories. Established in 2009, the young company focuses on the development and production of digital products with simple design philosophies, to create exquisite digital lifestyle products.

“hoco.” is targeted at the mid to high-end market with a significant product range, and is user-friendly in design, fashionable and comes with excellent build quality.

Known for its fashionable and distinguishable accessories based on unique ideas and refined craftsmanship, the parent company of "hoco.", Shenzhen Hoco Technology Development Co. Ltd. has won recognition from the international market and global consumers for its design and technological innovation, along with their special expressions of human-ness and functionality.

With its exquisite and premium design at a very affordable price, I was ecstatic to learn that "hoco." produces accessories for Apple, Samsung, HTC, MEIZU and other major brands which makes lives easier for the whole family with different models of mobile phones. All they have to do is visit one of the stores/ kiosks and they can find any accessories for their respective mobile phones at that one particular shop.

But, what is O2O? Online-to-Offline (O2O) commerce is a business strategy that draws potential customers from online channels to make purchases in physical stores. Online-to-offline commerce, or O2O, identify customers in the online space, such as through emails and internet advertising, and then uses a variety of tools and approaches to entice the customers to leave the online space. This type of strategy incorporates techniques used in online marketing with those used in brick-and-mortar marketing. O2O is related to but not the same as the concepts of "clicks-to-bricks" or "click and mortar. O2O is an innovative business model that assist all enterprises managing its sales business online and offline.

O2O simply means "create product awareness online and divert the customers to shop offline ie to visit the physical store. With the establishment of the new Hoco O2O Retail Concept Store, Cosmos Online and Hong Kong Haokuo hoco hope to lead their Malaysian retail peers to break through the industrial dilemma with O2O thinking. The model will eventually break the bottleneck that the mobile phone industry is currently facing which is challenges in the products' development due to the global recession. This leads to oversupplying thus resulting in a reshuffle in the market with many retailers folding up their businesses.

The introduction of O2O model into "hoco." allows the customers to get the premium products at a very affordable pricing.

So, what did I get during my visit to the launching of Hoco O2O Retail Concept Store in Low Yat Plaza?

USB data cable
Magic Unreal Extra-terrestrial Glass Cup
W5 Wired Headphone

Was it worth it? YES

Was it stylish? YES

Was it affordable? YES

So, what are you waiting for?

Visit the store now (the kiosk are everywhere in Malaysia - you will know the product when you see its logo).

Or, visit the online store first (hoco.malaysia), its FB (hoco.malaysia) or its IG (hoco.malaysia) to choose your products.

My friends know that I love the artsy stuff and will be easily fascinated with the beauty and culture at every place that I visit.

Mandarin Palace, The Federal Kuala Lumpur, Chinese restaurant, dim sum, the best dim sum in KL, halal dim sum, chee chong fun, siao bao, Rawlins GLAM, Rawlins Eats

Last weekend, I decided to visit one of the oldest and most historic restaurants in Kuala Lumpur that is the Mandarin Palace at The Federal Hotel Kuala Lumpur.
Trivia about Mandarin Palace

It was officially opened on August 28, 1957, in conjunction with Malaysia's Independence Day celebration. It is the only Chinese restaurant that has housed many VIPs, dignitaries and Diplomats, who arrived in Kuala Lumpur to witness Malaysia to celebrate her independence on August 31, 1957.
The Mandarin Palace was the location for filming the blockbuster movie The Seventh Dawn directed by Lewis Gilbert starring William Holden, Capucine, Susannah York, Michael Goodliffe and Tetsura Tamba, which was released in 1964.
The Mandarin Palace was listed as one of Malaysia's Most Beautiful Restaurants in Flavours Magazine May - June 2007, Malaysia Edition. It is also a recipient of Malaysia's tatler for Malaysia Best Restaurants in 1997, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. The Mandarin Palace also received the C.E.M. Asia Award for Malaysia Best Restaurants Award in 1977.

As I entered the hallway leading to the Mandarin Palace, I was fascinated with the carvings, the paintings and the decoration along the aisle. As I read the quotes on the pictures, I realised that all the carvings of auspicious dragons, phoenix, birds, animals, lotus flowers, God, Goddess and other Chinese characters are all of originals parts and as antique as the restaurant.

And as I entered the restaurant, it seems like I was walking into an Emperor's Hall - feeling so majestic, luxurious and grand as one too.

Then I saw the royal feast - the dim sums!

Oh my! And there is a lot of choices too!

The Mandarin Palace offers an exciting menu ranging from Cantonese to Hunanese and Szechuan cuisines, served in the grandeur of imperial court setting and warm Malaysian hospitality. There is Shrimp Dumpling, Teochew Dumpling, Xiao Long Bao, Shaomai and many more! I have tested them all and all I can offer you know is to feast your eyes on the pictures of that delicious food.

Delicious would be an understatement for all these delicious dim sums.

My friends and I just keep on coming back to the counter to get more.

Mahamahu was especially fixated on the salted egg bao.

Hehehe.

You want to have them all right? So, head over to the Mandarin Palace Restaurant on the 2nd Floor of The Federal Kuala Lumpur to feast on them

Tel: 03 2148 9166/ 8744 Adult: RM48/ head nett Children (below 12 yo): RM18/ head nett Senior (above 55 yo): RM36/ head nett The rates are only for weekend brunch

Be there. It will be totally worth waking up early for, especially on the weekend.
Did I mention that every corner of the restaurant is just another opportunity to have your selfie/ photo taken? The walls and the decorations are all insta-worthy!

florist, kedai bunga, That Flower Shop, Rawlins GLAM, the best florist delivery,

Every florist in Singapore know that you will be a step ahead of your competitors if you have your own delivery service. These days, most people would prefer their package sent to them or delivered to them than having to go and pick it up. Especially with the traffic today and the number of growing businesses and population, no one seems to have the time to browse through magazines or aisles of products only to find out what they were looking for was not there.

People that do browse through products in the flower shop are often the ones that have allotted time from their busy lives to specifically go flower arrangement or hand bouquet hunting. But not everyone is privileged enough to have a break from their jobs that is why being an online florist is also a good idea since most florists online have their own delivery and the convenience of being on a website is a bonus.

There are many types of florist delivery that you can choose from that would be suitable for your florist business. Like:

Same Day Flower Delivery

This, with a designated cut off time, is the most sought out because it helps everyone. Especially those who are doing last-minute shopping. The same day flower delivery works like other types of delivery only that this is rushed. The order placed will be delivered to the recipient on the same day. This is not the most common type of delivery as it places not only pressure on the ones who would arrange the flowers but also the delivery service. With so many factors to consider, this is perfect for those who really know how to manage their time.

Free Delivery

This is not the most common type of delivery, but it has its attractions to customers, it being free. This type of delivery is good for big businesses wherein they would not suffer any loss if they delivered their products for free. You can also be a small florist business owner or a home-based one and have this type of delivery.

Scheduled Delivery

Perfect for those planners. This type of delivery lets you choose when you want the product to be delivered and where. The price of this would fall in line same day flower delivery. This is good for both the customer and the owner of the flower shop because it is scheduled, and both get to prepare for it.
