Let me walk through my experience during this exciting visit…serious!!! After all this while been longing for a school field trip…and I received this opportunity…IMA so excited until can’t sleep the night before.Butterflies in my stomach, nervous due to my public phobia! WTH!




As usual since IMA so excited until cannot sleep…so end up reached Mamee Subang Office as early as 7:15am. Serious…nobody reached there yet!
I don’t know anybody here…but manage to make some friends.If you see the lady in blue pant..her name is Rona and she is our team leader.Yeeehaaahh! I am in pink team and bus no. 2. There are 2 buses leaving from Mamee Subang office.

Since it is a school holiday, we caught in really bad jam…serious!!! Terrible jam all the way!

 



Anyway, we finally reached Mamee Double Decker , factory around 11:30am and we were welcome by Mamee,Marketing Manager,Ms Soong Sham Mee and Mamee Fun Squad team.
Before we proceed to Mamee Factory plant visit, we have a group photo session and many blogggers don’t miss chance to take selfie around the area.Apparently, all is competing for most creative selfie for #Mameechefday to win Hamper from Mamee Chef.



 

After the group photo session, we were ushered to another area for introduction speech about Mamee history, achievement and the famous product Mamee Chef. Then we were presented with La Mian show and that ‘Heong’ Curry Laksa gravy created by Chef Ismail for Mamee.

Summary about Mamee Double Decker :

Mamee History
Mamee was founded in Malacca in the year of 1971 as a partnership between father (Current, Mr Chairman-Yg Berbhg Datuk Pang Chin Hin)  and son, Yg Berbhg Datuk Wira Pang Tee Chew. Their first product was Instant Rice Vercemilli under brand name ‘Lucky’. Subsequently , launched a product under the brand name Mamee which is from the word, ‘Mommy’ since this is the first word most of us learned to say. What a great brand name creation…who can forget this name? This has been registered to our mind ever since we learnt how to talk. Mamee,instant noodle did moderately well.

One day, Yg Berbhg Datuk Pang Chin Hin who was out making deliveries noticed some kids eating raw instant noodles right out of the packet. What he saw that day really change the future of Mamee. He created a noodle snack just for the kids.
Thank you Datuk Pang for creating such a great snack! IMA..one of those kids…lol

Mamee Chef
Mamee is going through the 3rd generation pass on and I guess that is way this inspiring innovations was created.Mamee Chef was a very differentiated products. Mamee invested RM80million on new machine which able to create better texture and a premium quality feel to its noodle. Mamee Chef with its “Mi Tarik” or La Mian technology presented to consumer noodles with more springy , tender and quality feel. This machine use the same La Mian technique which is pulling and folding process.The best thing about Mamee Chef is they gone through every details making consumer feel that this wasn’t just a normal instant noodles but make one feel like they are eating a proper meal. Why I said that?
Each Mamee Chef contained dehydrated condiments such as prawns,cabbage,spring onion,tofu,chilli flakes,shitake mushrooms, sweet corn and carrot.
For flavor, Mamee collobration with renowned celebrity chef , Dato Chef Ismail to create outstanding flavor such as Spicy Chicken Shitake, Creamy Tom Yam and my all time favorite Laksa Curry from fresh ingredients of herbs and spices!

I am one person who are very fussy when it come to instant noodles. I love Curry and Tom Yam flavor the most. I would never eat instant noodle with just their flavored soup without adding my own recipe to make it more ‘kick taste’! I would add in chilli paste,curry powder,lemon juice to make it more tangy taste and then add in tofu,some veggies to make it more feel like a complete meal.
Try Mamee Chef, you will give this thumb ups! I tried Mamee Chef for the first time and seriously, you don’t have to add all those ingredients I mentioned. You can just cook and eat it as it is. The taste are to remember and make you want another bowls.

Enough with the long history…let us continue my fun trip story visit to Mamee Factory at Ayer Keroh , Malacca.




 While listening to outstanding presentation from the Marketing Manager of Mamee, Ms Soong Sham Mee  , we were served with refreshing and delicious Yogurt drink. TADA!!!!


  The Sifu from China,demonstrated the La Mian aka Mi Tarik.
How the La Mian were made???
They use the push and pull technique. Don’t try this at home if you are not the expert. IMA! Don’t guarantee you be able to eat your noodles in time.Why the hassle when you can just buy Mamee Chef and eat your La Mian in just 3 minutes. So convenient!





Forgot to tell, Yg BerBhg Datuk Pang Chin Hin aka Mr Chairman and The Founder, made his presence during our visit. So cool! Did you see the Gentleman in White Shirt standing Second right.




Then we were presented with this Curry Laksa paste cooking demo. That Amoy…ar!!!! Seriously want to kidnap her out. She cook that gravy until so ‘heong ’.

The ingredients for Curry Laksa paste :

·         Dried Chillies
·         Shallots
·         Garlics
·         Ginger
·         Turmeric
·         Lemon Grass
·         Curry Leaves
·         Dried prawns
·         ‘Buah keras’aka Candle Nut

Blend all the ingredients and stir fried it until it fragrance and add in the tamarind juice….then blend it. After blend slowly add in paprika juice.
IMA does not guarantee this Curry Laksa paste recepi….hehehehe it just my theory from what I was presented that day. I never try to cook the gravy myself. Kekekeke…don’t scold me ar…if you follow this recipe and your curry laksa paste turn out disappointment.

 



After the cooking demo, we are divided into 2 groups to visit the mamee chef factory plant. The moment of truth! The one I am waiting for….yeahhhhh!!! I continue waiting….because I am in the last group. While waiting, I took my time browsing through the history of Mamee product since day one they started the brand.




 Gosh!!!! Still remember that ad when I was little girl…’Mamee!!





Many bloggers took this waiting time to do their most creative pose at Mamee Fun Squad booth. IMA! Feel so out of place and not use to this environment. Busy munching my delicious ‘Onde-Onde’ and smile away to these wacky and crazy bloggers act.




Yeayyyyy!!! My turn to go in!!!!!!

See? That cylo on top left?
That’s where the flour drop to the dough mixture machine.
Why the texture of Mamee instant noodles are so different from others?
They added in palm oil.

The process to manufacture instant noodles through my understanding can be summarized …







That worker called ‘piano man’ because their action is like playing the piano. Their job is to make sure the noodles are solid down to the mold before it goes into the deep frying process.

 



There you go…the noodle cup ready fresh from fryer!
Todays flavour is curry!





The plant on the opposite side is producing the famous Mamee Snack!
Oh my Mamee……
The process is almost the same like instant noodle, it just that Mamee Snack noodles need to go through the bathing process. The bathing process will be either Chicken broth or Barbeque Flavour broth. Now you know why our snack taste so good!!!!!!




My favourite Barbeque mamee flavour ready for me to eat!!!! Yeah!!
See that man in Mamee Monster blue shirt posing with me?
He is Danish Tan, Production Planning Manager at Mamee Factory,Ayer Keroh Malacca. He walked us through the Mamee Chef production process. Yes! We went through the detailed like the Safety and precaution take by Mamee to ensure all their products are safe to consume by consumer.
According to him Mamee production process , 7 lines and able to produce at least 100,000 Mamee product in a day.
Thank you Danish Tan for detailed explaination to us.

Cosmoderm Luminous A Retinol Review

In general, most people are advised to start using retinol in their mid-20s. Why do we need retinol for our skin? Well, this is because collagen and elastin production starts to slow down. Adding retinol into our skincare routine at age of 25 to 30 is the perfect time to slow down the ageing process. So, what is retinol that people are hyping about? In short, retinol is a topical product containing a vitamin A derivative. Technically speaking a type of retinoid which works to increase collagen production. It helps to treat acne, and blackheads and is also ideal to improve skincare texture such as minimising fine lines, and wrinkles and brightening dull skin. Personally, I am a beginner in adding Retinol into my skincare routine. At the age of 47 years old. I guess, am afraid to start one because I read many side effects if use it wrong.  What is the side effect if you use retinol wrong?  Retinols can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. So, it is advisable to apply this at
