Italian Prosecco Brunch at Villa Danieli, Sheraton Imperial Kuala Lumpur

Tim Chew

[Review]   Villa Danieli has long been one of my favourite Italian restaurants in Kuala Lumpur, largely due to the fact that it’s a free-standing trattoria hence you don’t feel like you’re walking into a commercial restaurant but more like into a Tuscany styled Italian cottage in the countryside.

The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur’s Crystal Summer Party – May 2017

Tim Chew

[Event]   Not many people know that the idea for Malaysia’s Hottest Bloggers actually hatched during one of our pool parties years ago back in 2010.
