France or Croatia at FIFA World Cup 2018 with Shopee

At last, the day we have all been anxious about! The game that the whole world have been training for if not waiting for for 4 years has arrived. Who will be the world's best football team brandishing the golden globe? Although I am not a football fan, the magnitude of the game is so huge that it  would be a sin to miss the FINALS.

To commemorate a game this big, it is only right to watch it on a cinema screen. To date, Shopee has sold over 20,000 tickets for the Shopee Piala FA Malaysia and Malaysia Super League. It is not surprising as just the screen itself elevates the whole football watching experience. Every kick and every fault of the game of 4 years is enlarged for you to witness.

Pigs do fly at Morganfield's

Alright, I really have to know how they do it! Morganfield's ribs are out of this world! How do they make it so tender, juicy and so flavourful all at the same time? The way the meat just falls out of the bone is incredible. All misery just melts away just like how the meat melts in your mouth. Morganfield's makes you be glad you had sticky fingers after each meal. Happens to me all the time at least!

Available in four yummy flavours that can make you fickle: 

Hickory BBQ

Homemade BBQ sauce by Morganfield's themselves. Cannot go wrong with the sauce created by the master of spare ribs!

Asian Charred

You know that sweet sticky black glaze on the 'char siew' loved by the Chinese? Morganfield's shows that it understands the Asian appetite with the most fragrant herbs and spices that would be right up your alley.

Smoked Peppercorn

If spicy is your game, meet the smoked peppercorn which just fires up your tastebuds the way you like it. 

Rib Rub

Not a fan of sauces? Morganfield's keeps it simply with a dry rack but still infused with flavours with the rub technique.

Mouth watering Sticky Wings in Honey Soy, Fiery Habanero and Golden Egg Crunch
RM22.90 but get it free when you follow the steps above

I must say that Morganfield's have done a great job creating this combination of chicken wings. Deep fried then slathered with sauce (a little Korean technique adopted), this set captured my heart without a question.

The Honey Soy leverages on the sweetness from honey and and savouriness from soy to create that bliss point that keeps you coming back for more.

Who can resist the Golden Egg Crunch! Velvety salted egg stir-fried with fragrant curry leaves is makes it so easy to fall in love with it

The Fiery Habanero wins over your tastebuds on a different dimension. Also sweet and savoury but with a kick of spiciness.

Being porky is fun!
