NATTOME UNVEILS NEW LOOK WITH BRAND AMBASSADORS

Nattome recently launched its new brand identity and packaging, partnering with Hong Kong actress Michelle Yim and YB Syed Saddiq as brand ambassadors.

 
Invited guests comprising media, customers and business partners witnessed Nattome unveiling its new look and packaging for its Digestive Health and Digestive Remedy product range, with both brand ambassadors in attendance.

Nattome’s founder Jon Lai shared how his own search to overcome acid reflux led him to focus on the importance of gut health, and how Nattome has transcended from a natural gut care solution to being a proponent of digestive health in Malaysia.
 
According to a World Health Organization 2021 report, 1 in 3 people suffer from digestive disorders, and gut-related diseases cited is the fourth leading cause of hospitalisation in Malaysia.

 
According to Associate Professor Dr. Tan Chung Keat of UCSI University, Nattome has been clinically proven to provide relief for acid reflux, bloating, and overall digestive discomfort issues in addition to helping to improve digestive immunity.

 
Member of Parliament YB Syed Saddiq along with Hong Kong actress Michelle Yim also shared their personal experiences on how Nattome proved effective against their digestive health concerns. Now both brand ambassadors are actively involved in raising more awareness about the importance of gut health through natural solutions proffered by Nattome.

The vibrant new look and modern packaging by Nattome reflect the brand’s determination in making digestive health care more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Available from Caring and BIG pharmacies, Lai announced Watsons will follow suit on carrying Nattome products. For more information, visit: https://nattome.com.my/

MONTHLY BBQ DINNER BUFFET at MÖVENPICK HOTEL & CONVENTION CENTRE KLIA

 

Flame-licked marinated meats and seafood take centrestage at the monthly BBQ dinner buffet at Temasya Restaurant, Mövenpick Hotel & Convention Centre KLIA.

 
The BBQ station, exuding scents of spice and smoke, draws guests looking to satisfy their carnivorous cravings whilst chefs fire up the grill until the chosen items emerge charred and irresistible.

Beef fillet, lamb chops, tiger prawns and chicken wings arrive flame-kissed, their smoky edges promising utter satisfaction. On our visit, the standout Portuguese-inspired seafood medley: prawns, fish and squid sang with a punchy dried shrimp sambal. It’s bold and bright on the palate, leaving a lingering heat.

Middle Eastern notes surfaced at the shawarma station, where pillowy flatbreads swaddled chicken carved straight from the rotisserie. Chopped tomatoes, onions and lettuce lent textural interest whilst sluiced with tahini and garlic sauce, we got a wrap that balanced fire, freshness and creaminess in every bite.

 
At the Malay station, chicken rendang and cockle curry elevated plates of nasi lemak, while the Indian vegetarian corner beckoned with fragrant biryani, aromatic yellow dhal and okra masala. 

Carving-station comforts of smoked beef brisket in black pepper sauce, roast chicken, and three types of pizza including a spicy anchovy one proved hard to resist.

 
The Chinese corner, too, pulled its weight: a crowd-pleasing deep-fried seabass glossed with sweet-spicy Thai chili sauce, wok-tossed vegetables and comforting egg noodles kept diners circling back. Seafood lovers found ample succour from poached slipper lobsters, clams, mussels and tiger prawns, displayed like jewels on crushed ice.

Dessert delivered its siren call at the finale. Freshly made apam balik—warm, nutty and laced with cream of sweet corn—competed with dainty cakes, local kuih and tropical fruit to ensure a sweet finish.

 
The Temasya BBQ Dinner Buffet is held on the last Saturday of the month (25 October and 29 November 2025), from 6.30pm to 10.30pm. Priced at RM158+ per adult and RM78+ per child, senior citizens are entitled to a 30% discount.

 
Temasya’s BBQ Dinner Buffet doesn’t just feed you—it takes you on a global ramble of flavours, with fire and spice leading the way.

COFFEE RAVE – BREW, BEAT, BERSAMA PUTRAJAYA MARRIOTT HOTEL

Culture, creativity and community take centrestage at the launch of ‘Coffee Rave – Brew, Beat, Bersama’ event hosted by Putrajaya Marriott Hotel.

 
Held at the Lobby Lounge, the lively showcase of flavours, music, and artistry highlighted the collaboration between the Hotel and local artisan coffee brand Hétam. It’s also part of Marriott Bonvoy's ongoing efforts to deliver exclusive experiences for members and guests, creating opportunities for them to discover new flavours, local talents and unique cultural experiences.
 
Ms. Nikie Mok, General Manager of Putrajaya Marriott Hotel said: "Coffee Rave is more than an event; it's a celebration of togetherness, flavours, and artistry. We are proud to create experiences connecting people through meaningful moments; be it through food, culture, or community."

 
Hétam, an innovative homegrown coffee brand founded by passionate coffee artisan Wira, is dedicated to redefining Malaysia's coffee culture. At the Coffee Rave event, guests were treated to Wira’s specially crafted beverages embodying local heritage and inspirations.

Emas was the first coffee concoction we sampled. The name Emas pays tribute to the coffee’s golden hue courtesy of Harum Manis mango – the royal fruit of the north. We love how the fruity sweetness of fresh mango (purée and cubes) tangoed with the warm, robust richness of espresso. A delightfully bright, fizzy, creamy and fruity drink.

 
Inspired by the equatorial spirit of Malaysia, the bold and complex Khatulistiwa bore tropical citrus fruitiness amidst the invigorating acidity of coffee. Passionfruit pulp, a dried orange slice and a rosemary sprig lent the mocktail refreshing and aromatic finish.

 
Echoing our country’s lush rainforests, the earthy and robust Belantara exuded nuances of bright, green fruits layered with full-bodied roasted coffee; its creaminess touched with sea salt to round off the taste profile.

 
Rich and delightfully sweet like kuih seri muka, the Puteri coffee mocktail pays tribute to cherished tradition and treasured heritage. Its pandan green and coconut white hues coupled with the delicate pandan scent and creamy coconut taste juxtaposed against a canvas of espresso is akin to a drinkable form of the much-loved local dessert.

To complement these inventive beverages, Chef Zulkifli Asyul and his culinary team curated a special menu for the afternoon tea event. We feasted on delicious Mee Rebus Lamb Feet, dainty hand-rolled Nasi Lemak Temaki, and Macaroni Cheese in-between sips of those winsome coffee drinks.

Delectable morsels of Ayam Percik Vol Au Vent and Sardine Canapés added to the day’s merriment. Aside from classic Scones with Jam and Whipped Cream, we savoured Durian Cheese Tarts, Macaroons and Kuih Ubi Ketuk.

 
Soulful renditions by Agal Musik livened up the Coffee Rave session while Jessie Art Studio captivated us with a live art showcase. Henna artistry also imbued the proceedings with a cultural touch.

 
The live art piece by Jessie Art Studio was then presented to Ms. Nikie Mok, General Manager of Putrajaya Marriott Hotel as the wrap-up for the Coffee Rave event.
