T-Bowl Concept Restaurant

T-Bowl, which stands for “toilet bowl”, is a popular concept restaurant originated from Penang in 2008, now with four outlets in Peninsular Malaysia. It has yet to come to Ipoh, though.

T-Bowl is currently running an “Eat for Free” spicy hell ramen contest, where diners get to eat the spicy hell ramen for free if they could finish the bowl of spicy ramen within ten minutes of being served. Otherwise, it’s RM14.90 per bowl of ramen noodles. This is similar to Sushi King’s Big Bowl Noodles Challenge. Contest ends 12th Nov, 2011.

Check out these photos of a typical T-Bowl outlet, where you can find toilet bowls used as seats, basins and bath tubs as dining tables and mini toilet bowls as food bowls. Dining in a shower stall is certainly a new experience for most of us.

customized teddy bear

Even after all these years, I am still clueless as to what to give away as a prize. Some of my friends suggested cash, gift cards and electronic gadgets. Granted, these are popular prizes but I was thinking of giving away a customized gift, like a customized t-shirt or a teddy bear where I could print my tagline and URL. These teddy bears, by the way, make great easter gifts for kids. I’m no longer a kid but I like it too!

Yes, I really should start putting this plan into action now that I have found an online printer that allows me to print on demand. However, I need a better design or maybe a logo. If you know me, you know I have no creativity in me. Let me see if I can get a friend to help me out with this.

Stay tuned. My first giveaway is probably just around the corner.

Amber Chia

The contest-loving me did not participate in The Haven’s “Name The Rock” contest to name the 280-million year old rock, that was launched a month ago but I was still looking forward to the announcement of winners which was held at The Haven Site in Tambun, Perak, last evening. Why? Because Amber Chia, the Ipoh-born international supermodel, was invited to the event to announce the winners. How could I not go?

Today I am so happy to bring you photos of Amber Chia, who flew in from Seoul, South Korea, especially for this event. I understand that her flight was delayed, hence the event, which was scheduled to commence at 6pm, was delayed as well. However, guests were entertained by a live band by the lakeside and food and drinks were served. It was dinner time, after all.

Supermodel Amber Chia arrives

Amber Chia arrived at slightly before 8.30pm and after a short speech by Mr. Peter Chan, CEO of The Haven, the announcement of the winners of the Name the Rock contest proceeded without further ado.

The 280 million year old rock is now named Rockhaven. Doh! *slaps forehead* This name was actually submitted by numerous entrants but the winners were chosen based on the creativity of the slogans.

Congratulations to all winners!

Although the event did not start on time, at least it did end as scheduled. By 9pm, guests were invited to view the show units of The Haven condominium if they haven’t done so.

a very happy Amber Chia
