Taobao by lumahgo - KK Suria Inanam & KL MyTown Shopping Center

Hi! It's been quite sometime I didn't write anything here. Well I have visited a number of places and today I would like to talk about my experience of Taobao by lumahgo.

I used to be a die hard fans of Taobao. I used to purchase a lot of things from there. It was an exciting shopping experience. With all sort of things you can imagine in that platform. So when Taobao is opening a brick and mortar store in Malaysia, I am really excited to see what it has to be offer.

So I have the chance to visit both branches in Malaysia, one at KK Suria Inanam, another one at KL MyTown Shopping Centre.


Taobao x lumahgo KK

When I entered the shop, there is only two staff working. They turned off the lights to save electricity. But they didn't bother to turn on when I stepped into the shop...

They have a few furniture here and there.





Some boxes to keep make-up items



A floor mop



A tatami style wardrobe and bedding set


Some cutlery


A stylish bookshelves

...

Yes. That's it.

Let's have a look at the Taobao x lumahgo at MyTown shopping center.


First we were greeted by a few pieces of minimalist themed furniture.


Robot vacuum and handheld vacuum


AI machine dogs


A lot of small electrical appliances (hair dryer, speaker...)


Table light, smart door lock, surveillance camera, hand pull blender...


Make-up items sorter



Some skin care products and miscellaneous items



Children corner with books and toys



Cooking appliances. The socket is still with China's socket plug. So you still need to use an adapter if you want to purchase those electrical appliances.

There are no live demo and testing. Space are narrow and some of the items are on very high shelves. It was crowded and difficult to view the items. 


I find this mini handheld on-the-go blender quite interesting.


Some decorations and misc products

You still need to buy through the Taobao app. If the item is with ready stock, you can receive the item on the spot. Otherwise you would need to wait it to be delivered to your house, just like normal online purchase.



An in-house coffee shop.

That's it.

I was expecting to find some interesting products that we usually see online. None of them were here. The item displayed didn't caught my attention. I felt the selection were incomplete. I am wondering which group of shoppers they are targeting. If I am a furniture and appliances shopper, I am not able to completely furnish my house with the displayed products. Same as other categories of shopper as well. The price were not cheap too...

 Frankly speaking, I find the other furniture or electrical appliances shop (eg. Harvey Norman) provides better experience compare to visiting the Taobao shop. Even shopping in Daiso will give you more surprise.

Thank you for reading and do let me know what you think by leaving your comments below.

Chili's @ Sunway Putra Mall

Hi! Today I would like to share about my experience at Chili's at Sunway Putra Mall. We are actually attracted by the "Kids Eat Free" Ballon. Every kid gets a free meal with a paying adult. It includes a meal and free flow of drinks. The kids menu is actually an activity sheet for kids. Comes with one piece of crayon. All drinks in kids meal are bottomless. Games Colouring activities We have ordered fish and chips for our daughter. We have ordered Triple Dipper (RM 36.95) - Texas cheese poppers, signature drumetts (boneless) with buffalo sauce, and southwestern eggrolls. The signature drumetts with buffalo sauce really stands out with it's tangy and spicy flavour. We also ordered Fatija Trio (Lamb, Beef and Prawn). It came with some dipping (guacamole, cream, cheese, and some veggies) and served with wraps. Their wraps are bottomless too! (RM 59.95) Their proteins are cooked just right. Easy to bite and v

Why I Choose to Give Cheap Milk Powder

Milk is the only thing baby can drink for the first 6 months of life. For a balanced nutrition, parents will usually provide milk to their child until at least 6 years old as a supplement to solid food. If you are able to provide breast milk to your baby, Congratulations! You are a lucky mom! Not only you save tons of money, you also get to have the unique bonding experience with your baby. For myself, I am not able to provide breast milk, thus my baby is depend on milk powder. At first we provided her with a premium brand, Morinaga. But her weight gain was not ideal. Our pediatrician advise us to change to other brands. Thus we started our search for the best milk for her. We tried almost all branded milk samples in the market provided by our pediatrician's clinic (all brands are priced at more than RM 70 per kg at the time of writing). The most expensive one is Pediasure, around RM 80 for 850g pack, and she is not drinking as much as the recommended volume.

Universal Noodle @ Citta Mall

Hi. Today I would like to share with you our experience at Universal Noodle, Citta Mall. Image from:  https://www.citta.com.my/listings/universal-noodle/ At first I thought they are selling Japanese Ramen. But it is actually KL's style pork noodle. Dry pork noodle with extra egg. (RM 12.90). Their portion of mince meat and slice meat were quite generous. Boiled rice with fish fillet and mince pork. (RM 16.90) I think they are using grouper fillet for this dish. Quite big portion. We also ordered the french fries and luncheon meat (RM 8.00). This is a new item in their menu. Something different. In total we have spent RM 39 for this meal, inclusive of 5% service charge and 6% SST. Verdict: Taste: 4/5 Freshly made with premium ingredients. Price: 4/5 Considered fair with the big portion. Ambiance: 3/5 OK. Service: 4/5 Good service Overall: 3.75/5 Considered good. Can be revisit. Thank you for reading. Ple
