I feel a sense of gratitude and enthusiasm unlike anywhere else in the world, which makes a performance feel more like an event than a recital. The audience participation in Asia is harmonic and supersonic. I am thrilled to return, reconnect and re-experience the joy.”

The Good Vibes Tour announcement follows the release of Jason’s sixth studio album KNOW. on August 10th 2018, becoming his fifth consecutive studio album to debut in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200. Know was produced by Andrew Wells, who brings an organic and groovy feel to the album’s classic, acoustic rock sound. “I see it as a sonic evolution from my last album, YES! ”Mraz says. “It’s just got a bit more caffeine, whereas my last album was a bit more herbal tea.” Know. reteams Mraz with his longtime collaborators, Raining Jane. “We thought it’d be fun to make ‘No’ as the follow -up to YES!but instead of ‘N-O,’ the negative, it’d be the positive, ‘K-N-O-W.’”

Bangi Golf Resort Ramadan- Iftar Sesama

This Ramadan, one delicious Iftar option would be at the Bangi Golf Resort (BGR) with their theme Iftar Sesama which means breaking fast together. Their spacious hall can very well accommodate massive numbers of guests, in line with the togetherness that they are promoting with a sizeable array of food to match with over 200 food selections to satisfy any palette.

I decided to convene a much needed gathering for my girl friends for a night of food and fun. The spread of food filled our tummies with much satisfaction as flavours are authentically traditional and skillfully curated. The buffet is served outside the dining hall in a neat canteen-style set up where the sight and smell of food at every corner makes fasting more rewarding.

The price offered for online bookings at the website https://www.bgrrest.com/product/buffet-ramadhan/ starts from as low as RM59.00 nett for adults and RM29.00 nett for children.

Spending iftar at BGR comes with charity as BGR Restaurant will donate 1% of its profits throughout this Ramadan al Mubarak to the Islamic Relief Malaysia fund. Through this contribution, it is hoped that the organisation will be empowered to hold more charitable activities, in particular those held to help the less fortunate.

Also, BGR Restaurant will work together with the Food Aid Foundation, to donate and save any surplus of food from the Ramadan buffet to give to those in need.

Not only that – throughout this Ramadan, BGR Restaurant will also create an Iftar Sesama
contribution box for the people who want to donate food and clothing to the underprivileged,
something that no restaurant has previously done before.

Sup kambing right from the kuali- the sufficiently spiced mutton broth deliciously warms the gut for a start.
But do be mindful that thick soup can be filling up the tummy quickly.

From farm to fork at the Bangi Farm Resort

The Bangi Farm Resort will also be showcased at the BGR Restaurant, featuring raw ingredients that are specially planted and harvested for Malay and traditional cuisine, bearing the concept of a "Farm in a City".

Nasi Kerabu for example, together with its organic vegetables is a delight to have especially if eaten together with serunding, coconut fish, stir-fried sambal gravy, fish crackers, fried chicken with spices and additional dishes like bunga kantan, kobis bulat, king fish, selom leaves, long beans and flavoured with slices of lime and chillies.

With so much raw ingredients needed, having them plucked fresh from the farm makes the dish even more toothsome. Even the Telang flowers (blue pea flowers) that give the rice its blue colour comes from the farm.

Delicious mix of nasi kerabu simply refreshes the palate with lots of raw and fragrant greens while being daring with crispy fried chicken

Be impressed with their appetizers at the very beginning with delectable Thai options like Thai Mango Salad, Thai Papaya salad and Glass Noodle Salad.

My favourite would be the famous Thai appetizer with seven ingredients “Mieng Kam”. The sauce was made so right that I could have them all night.
