22nd May 2022

Beanbag Superfood has launched a new “Mix Almond Protein” product, making it the first brand in Asia to use innovative plant-based protein from almond. The move confirms Beanbag’s position as the leading fun, modern and creative health & wellness brand. Beanbag Superfood aims to further penetrate the health-conscious Gen Y and millennials market and grow the business despite the Covid-19 pandemic crisis and become a food start-up by the end of 2022.

Bhurit Srimanotham, Founder of Beanbag Superfood, stated that, “Beanbag Superfood’s strategy for 2022 will focus on more new product development that is fresh and diverse to attest to our position and image as a creative-centric brand. We intend to expand our health product empire to better complement all lifestyles, meet the concerns of the market and reflect the tastes, lifestyles and interests of our new generation consumers. Beanbag Superfood also looks to give more benefits to our customers, both directly and indirectly. Direct value-added would be our high quality products which are highly nutritious. Indirect value-added is the emotional experience whereby customers can experience new innovations and concepts. We want our consumers to feel that our brand understands and resonates with their true self and that we reflect their identity and lifestyle.”

Nichapat Srimanotham, Co-Founder of Beanbag Superfood, said that, “Since Beanbag was launched in 2016, it has been operating with passion. The company always sources the highest-quality ingredients with great care for our products. Each ingredient is finely selected and all products are tested hundreds of times to ensure that the final product is perfect and caters to consumers’ needs. Our new product started out from our interest in the plant-based and alternative protein market trend and we finally chose to use innovative plant-based protein from almonds. We attentively sourced organic almonds from Spain as they have a unique aroma, sweeter taste, and very high protein content. This year, we injected an additional 10 million baht in capital investment into our brand to capture more of the continuously growing health trend that has become a part of the modern lifestyle. We aim to achieve 300% growth and capture part of the whey protein market by offering an alternative option for those with lactose intolerance, a segment which we believe have huge demand.”

The new Beanbag Superfood Mix Almond Protein comes in two flavours. The Beanbag Mix Almond “Strawberry” Protein uses real fresh freeze-dried strawberries in place of synthetic flavouring to offer a naturally aromatic, sweet and delicious taste. Beanbag Mix Almond “Dark Chocolate” Protein uses true Belgian chocolate with no added sugar to give the protein a smooth, rich, flavourful, and easy-to-drink form. The Beanbag Superfood Mix Almond Protein also includes four other types of plant-based proteins (peas, rice, soy and pumpkin seeds) and is proven through high standard lab tests to contain at least 41 grams of protein per portion. MCT oil, which is packed with 13 beneficial vitamins (vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 B7, B9, B12, C, D3, E and K1) and helps boost metabolism for lean body mass, is also a key ingredient. Other nutritious ingredients include nine muscle-building amino acids, prebiotics, and calcium equivalent to one full glass of fresh milk. Moreover, the good fat found in almond is proven to be good for the heart, vascular health and blood pressure, and to nurture the brain and nervous system, reducing risk of Alzheimer’s. Almonds also have beneficial properties to enhance and restore skin, hair and nails with natural shine.

Beanbag Superfood Mix Almond Protein retails in two sizes: a jar of 800 grams (23 servings) priced at 1,890 baht and a box of seven sachets containing 280 grams priced at 790 baht.

This encompasses fandom for artists, singers, actors and hit TV series, to fashion and Korean food culture. Korean soft power is gradually working its way into the daily lives of Thai people, very clearly visible from the trend of growth in Korean restaurants which is still on the up. With this in mind, The Pizza Company is latching onto Korea Fever by combining it with leadership of the pizza business. The result is a debut to create an unusual new phenomenon for pizza lovers and Korean food fans, of tasty new experiences with the campaign “Korean Hit”.

The new hit flavors are being served up from today onward at every outlet of The Pizza Company for only 359 baht.

We believe the campaign will be welcomed by young consumers and working people who love Korean-style food. It will address consumer behavior in Thailand which has increasingly turned to favor Korean food. It will also provide remarkable new alternatives on existing pizza topping flavors. The brand is delivering greater choice to consumers, because on top of pizzas, the store offers a diverse range of dishes and beverages to order which cover the needs of every consumer. Ordering through the app is easy, convenient and quick, or they can dine-in at The Pizza Company restaurants. This campaign is expected to generate sales of 80 MB,” concluded Mr Panusak.

Marriott Bonvoy commits to ‘sustainability’ by serving not only tasty, but also healthy and environmentally friendly meals

Kuala Lumpur, 17 May 2022 – As the world moves closer towards being eco-conscious, implementations of sustainable F&B are on the rise within the hotel industry. Sustainability no longer remains a trend as it is now a preference among most consumers and travellers, making it a mainstream necessity.

Echoing this sentiment, Marriott Bonvoy Hotels and Resorts is embarking on a journey to sustainability and have implemented a few ways to facilitate this – starting with food and beverage offerings at selected hotels. There are many ways in which a hotel can move towards sustainability, and it is not just in production or minimising food wastage, but also through avoiding non-environmentally friendly packaging. At Marriott Bonvoy Hotels and Resorts in particular, restaurant Chefs and team members have integrated sustainable elements into their menus and packaging – all while still offering both healthy and scrumptious culinary experiences.

“At Marriott, we are incredibly optimistic and involved in the future of sustainability through social impact. Through Serve 360 and guided by our 2025 Sustainability and Social Impact Goals, we are committed to creating positive and sustainable impact wherever we do business,” said Rivero Delgado, Area Vice President, Malaysia, Singapore, and Maldives, Marriott International.

Here’s how Marriott Bonvoy hotels and resorts are practising sustainability:

The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur

Executive Chef Keith Hooker’s plant-based vegan menu is specially curated using 90 percent farm-fresh Malaysian produce for a wholesome, hearty, and healthy meal that’s appropriate for the entire household.

The culinary team at The Brasserie, St. Regis Kuala Lumpur is focused on supporting local farms and the economy by not incorporating plant-based meats, omni pork or any other mock meat in their menu, as this significantly contributes to carbon footprint, air miles, and energy usage. Instead, high-quality Malaysian ingredients are used to bring freshness and wholesome flavours to the table.

At The Brasserie, eco-conscious customers can rest easy knowing that the idea of ‘fat means flavour’ is replaced with only locally produced sustainable ingredients. Not only are the accompaniments and garnishing locally-sourced, but even seasonings such as soy and its derivatives are plant-based – instead of the usual easily-sourced dairy, butter, cheese and cream. This might come off as a challenge for some, but The Brasserie believes that a challenge in the development of this menu improves creativity in keeping it a delicious yet healthy and sustainable one.

The eight-course plant-based vegan menu is available every Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday at The Brasserie and is priced at RM388+ per person.

For reservations or more information, please call +603 2727 6696 or email dining.kualalumpur@stregis.com

The Westin Kuala Lumpur

The Westin Kuala Lumpur’s ‘Tiffin To Go’ features a novelty infusion of savoury and sweet delights from its Hi-Tea Set menu. The tiers consist of savoury, hearty meals, and dessert to tantalise everyone’s taste buds. Tiffin To Go is complemented with an infused water bottle as refreshment.

This tiffin concept is aimed at encouraging sustainability as the container may be reused, and comes in handy to transport food, while reducing the unnecessary waste associated with takeout meals. Priced affordably at RM128 nett for two people, Tiffin To Go is available every day from 10.30am to 10.00pm for walk-in(s) and pre-order at its all-day dining restaurant, The Living Room on the Upper Ground Floor. The Living Room also accepts bulk Tiffin To Go orders for business meetings or events.

Tiffin To Go’s menu will vary depending on the occasion and be specially crafted to cater to festive seasons such as Chinese New Year, Hari Raya and Christmas. At the moment, the Raya ‘Tiffin To Go Kampung’ with its festive menu and latest Tiffin design is available until the end of May 2022.

For reservations or more information, please call +603 2773 8495, WhatsApp +6017 281 9231, or email westindining@westin.com.

Element Kuala Lumpur

Located at the 40th floor of Element Kuala Lumpur and boasting breath-taking views of the Kuala Lumpur city skyline, TRACE Restaurant and Bar is excited to introduce diners to a new sustainable menu starting from June 2022. With a mission to reduce carbon footprint and staying true to its wellness brand ethos, TRACE Restaurant and Bar brings a carefully considered and balanced wellness menu to food enthusiasts. The sustainable menu features an appetizer, two main courses, one soup, and one dessert for diners to explore. Starting with the Element Green Salad – a local adaption of the Greek Salad, the vegetables are sourced from locally-grown organic vegetables and herbs such as Pegaga (Centella Asiatica) and Ulam Raja (Cosmos Saudatus). With two variations on the main course, protein-centric guests can opt for the Charcoal Herb Crusted Free Range Chicken with Green Peas Puree, Caramelized Carrot Sticks, and Buttered Peas (the free range chicken is sous-vide and pan seared; then served with a flavourful Sarawak Black Pepper sauce) or the Vegetarian Mee Mamak, an all-vegetarian variation of local Mee Goreng Mamak. The sustainable menu will be available for dine-in and takeaway from 12:00pm onwards, starting 1 June 2022.

For reservations or more information on takeaway or delivery, please call the hotel at 03 2771 3388 (ext 3351), WhatsApp them at +60 10-267 0338 or email TraceRB.Elementkl@elementhotels.com.

KUALA LUMPUR, 20 May 2022 – Malaysia has moved into the endemic phase of COVID-19, allowing us to celebrate Raya during Syawal with less restrictions and more face-to-face interaction. However, we still need to take precautions to keep the young, the old and the differently abled well-protected.

Clorox Malaysia in collaboration with the Social Welfare Department (JKM), is helping 24 Non-Governmental Organisations have a safer and more hygienic Hari Raya Aidilfitri and the month of Syawal celebration with the contribution of RM24,270.00 worth of disinfection essentials from the brand.

Both products are EPA-approved to kill 99.9% of both viruses and bacteria in 1 minute^[1], including the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19^[2].

“We prepared a list of 24 selected Welfare Voluntary Organizations (PSK) and Welfare Institutions, namely 17 from the Selangor State JKM and 7 from the Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory JKM. We welcome and appreciate the noble efforts of the management of the Clorox company in organizing this initiative which can provide hygiene benefits to the target group in heading towards the endemic phase of COVID-19,” says the Unit PRO JKM.

We are glad to support these communities in collaboration with JKM,” said Monique Gonzales, Southeast Asia Marketing Manager of Clorox.

Held at the Store-y Artisan Market, Kota Kinabalu, Carlsberg Smooth Draught threw a culture-rich social fair at the venue decked with interactive game stations, iconic atap bar that served quality brews and Carlsberg infused traditional cocktails, tasty local delicacies and native dance performances to revel with locals from 12 May to 15 May 2022.

“Apart from launching the beautiful six special-edition cans in recognition of Sabah & Sarawak, we invite our consumers to fully immerse in the traditions of the natives by glorifying indigenous arts and culture, as we celebrate the abundance of the Harvest Festival. It’s been two years since everyone has been able to enjoy a good night out with their families and friends. We are extremely excited that we are able to throw Sabahans a pre-Kaamatan showcase as we usher in the biggest festival of the year,” said Stefano Clini, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia

“Thanks to the love and support of our consumers here, Carlsberg Smooth Draught has grown significantly in Sabah and Sarawak over the last five years. This has inspired us to promote the beautiful heritage and celebrate the pride of Sabah and Sarawak with bigger and better consumer promotions to reward beer lovers here with even more memorable drinking experiences” Clini elaborated.

At the event, visitors were able to move along to the traditional and modern harmonies of Kumpulan Budayawan and Bolos Ru Bulur while enjoying a delectable range of local cuisine.

In April, Carlsberg Smooth Draught launched six artistically designed special-edition cans and bottles to celebrate the pride of Borneo. Sporting unique icons in vibrant colours, the ‘Raikan Kebanggaan Sabah & Sarawak’ packaging showcases a masterpiece of contemporary art and beer. The creative artworks feature icons such as the Orangutan, majestic mountains and Rafflesia of Sabah and the Longhouse, Hornbill and Sape of Sarawak.

Somersby Apple, now excitingly non-alcoholic

KUALA LUMPUR, 19 May 2022 – Get ready for a whole new world of fun as Somersby launches another progressive new variant, the brand’s second product innovation this year! Offering consumers optimism in a can, the alcohol-free Somersby Apple 0.0, brewed with premium non-alcoholic fermented apple juice, gives more spunk and zest with its pleasant sparkling sweetness for a refreshingly different thirst quencher.

Known for its enjoyable and cheerful traits, Somersby 0.0 maintains the brand’s true essence; a sparkling fruit beverage that comes with the finest ingredients and limitless enjoyment. Somewhat akin to a cider mixed with a spritzer, Somersby Apple 0.0 has the celebratory feel of a bottle of sparkling drink with its charming sweetness and is refreshingly more non-alcoholic.

Spotted with a fresh blue hue on its packaging, signifying alcohol-free universally, Somersby Apple 0.0 is brewed with premium apple juice, without any form of alcohol-based liquid added into it. Classified under the soft drink category, it is a sparking juice drink perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the moment, anytime, anywhere, and any way they like for a ‘Refreshingly More’ experience.

Building on the growth momentum of our stellar Somersby Apple brand, we believe this is the perfect time to introduce an alcohol-free sparkling fruit drink variant. Somersby 0.0 offers the refreshing taste and same premium quality of Somersby Apple that complement all types of drinking occasions and lifestyles as it is non-alcoholic,” said Stefano Clini, Managing Director of Carlsberg Malaysia.
