Wedding Gifts.......

I had an Italian colleague who will be getting married soon.....
We support each other in our work...
Recently he came to Malaysia for some techincal support on the production......

Thought of getting him some Malaysian souvenior for his wedding gift.....
My wife suggested to get him some pewter products .....
She told me to go to Tumasek Pewter .. coz Royal Selangor Pewter is very expensive....

I found out that there is a sales branch office at Amcorp Mall .....

It is been years that I have not been to Amcorp Mall...

just a small shop

some information of Tumasek Pewter...

Decided to buy a pair of Dragon and Phoenix cups for the wedding gift..
Cost is around RM245 after 10% discount...


I thought of engrave their names on the cup..

I went to the 2nd floor for the engraving..
this shop is one of the Tumasek's dealers..
I think their price seems a bit cheaper compare to their shop..
Many varieties as well....

Dragon (His) cup - Andrea

Phoenic (Her) cup - Lavinia

Cost - RM5/cup (minimum charges)

Later the night we had dinner together to celebrate her last Bachelor day in Malaysia....

Some of my female colleagues keep on saying that he looks like Matt Damon..

So much difference ....
I wonder which parts looks like him.. lol
the beers...

A small tip .. if you go to Amcorp mall, please do not park your car outside (parking lot)
this is because the charge is RM4/ 2 hours and if you park inside the Mall is only cost RM2/ 2 hours

  9. No, he doesn't look like Matt Damon... Matt is more handsome, kekekeke. But if you do some airbrushing and Photoshop Andrea's picture, maybe there is some similarity, hihihi!

    I always like pewter products but don't have any because they are pricy.

  15. ooo, i usually park outdoors at amcorp, cos it's easy to find a space and convenient to just walk inside (unless it's raining). didn't know there's a different charge! :D
