Truefitt & Hill : World's Oldest Barber now in Palace Of The Golden Horses


Getting my hair cut has been one of the more personal moments for me. Where else do you sit for hours and let someone else get so close to you in your most vulnerable moments? I was trilled to know that London's finest traditional gentlemen barber and perfumer is here in Malaysia cos I have always wanted to know how royals get their haircuts. Want to know what service is offered and where it is? Read on to find out more...


Started in 1805 by William Francis Truefitt, he quickly establish Truefitt & Hill as one of the finest barbers and wigmaker of which its gentleman's wigs was most sought-after and worn by the King himself. Throughout its history, Truefitt&Hill had had the honour of serving the Monarchs of Great Britain throughout nine consecutive reigns and over the last 195 years, it held many Royal Warrants


Guinness World Record for being the oldest barbershop(and some says the best) in the world and what more a befitting place for their latest outlet in Malaysia other than the Palace Of The Golden Horses since both are fit for the royal families, politicians, and many more


Official Launching of Truefitt & Hill at Palace of the Golden Horses happened on the 22nd of June


It was officiated by HE Charles Hay MVO, the British High Commissioner to Malaysia, Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew, and Mr. Antoine Bakhache, MD for Truefitt & Hill

They also have an in house store which sells haircare and grooming products imported from the UK


Buy your brush and have it hunged on the wall for your frequent visits


Did I mention there's the cigar lounge next door and for the membership, you could use it interchangeably for the house cigar @ Fidel Cigar Bar


 The vast variety of quality cigars available


Perfect for a discussion with your business partners or even friends alike.


So I decided, why not have The Royal Haircut with Shampoo and Finish followed by the Traditional Hot Towel Wet Shave.


What sets them apart is the Hygeine aspect where each of the utensils used are prepped and packed individually so you could have the most personal touch grooming at ease


Once the haircut is done, I am treated to the Traditional Hot Towel Wet Shave while the professionally trained specialist does the shampoo and wash. The Traditional Hot Towel is a must try as it's truly relaxing and you would feel the glow in the skin after the shave.


Even my mum says my face glowed and looks more refreshed after the session.

Want that fresh Royal Treatment for your hair or you would just wanna pamper the Gentlemen in your life? Head on to Palace of the Golden Horses today.

Curiosity kills the cat - CALIMOCHO @ THE WINE SHOP Penang

Image
Curiosity kills the cat? Why? Cause I tried this cola called curiosity cola from Fentimans once and now I am hooked for life. Some time ago I was invited to try this drink called Calimocho at The Wine Shop in Penang. For those who do not know what it is, it's actually a mixture of wine and cola in equal proportion served with ice in it. The blend? Perfect and not to mention best drink on a hot warm day. Not too sweet, not too alcoholic. I was wondering why they didn't bring this to Penang much earlier. The cola used was imported all the way from the UK by Exclusivetea Sdn Bhd. What makes it one of a kind is that Curiosity Cola from Fentimans was botanically brewed. The taste is not as sweet as any other cola in the market but it brings back memories of those cola candy I once had when I was still a kid. We were also served The Wine Shop's famous dishes, oven fresh "vegetarian pizza"   Best wine pairing "Cheese Platter" and juicy...

Pants on fire while it's down

I was at my friends place some time ago and he is one who always bragged about how many girlfriends he has outside. Oh. By the way he has is married. We were having tea at his place because of some "business" proposals to settle. He was seating quietly reading his morning paper drinking coffee with me. Suddenly, his wife came from behind with a frying pan and almost knocked him senseless then and there. Friend : What was that for? You know pain one anot? Wife : Why do you have a piece of paper in your coat pocket with "Daisy" written on it? Friend : Oh honey, don't you remember two weeks ago before the Chinese New Year when I went to the horse races? Daisy was the name of the horse I bet on. His wife was satisfied with his answer and apologized for wacking him. This morning I went to his place and the same thing happened. The wife came with a frying pan also and wacked him so hard on his head that he can barely stand up after that. Friend : What is this for this...
