Whether you’re rejoicing that we’re only 5 months away from the end of 2017 or wondering how 7 months has just flown by in a blink of an eye, it’s hard to deny that the month of August is going to be an awesome one for us Malaysians.
The 29th SEA Games that Malaysia is hosting is merely days away, and then we have Hari Merdeka and Hari Raya Haji to look forward to. The four-day weekend coupled with promotions on air fares happening now means that it’s a good time to travel, and what better reason to travel than to eat!
