.
Tesco Japanese Green Tea range and coconut water is good pairing with Tesco prawn range and even potato chips.
If you are planning mini party at home which is with your family members. This will be a good idea to have variant types of shrimps to eat together. You can create your own sauce for dip, I know most Malaysia likes having sauce to dip and eat their food. You can also eat it just like that, everyone has got their different taste buds.
My favourite the Tesco Breaded Butterfly Shrimp Coconut taste so good, Tesco potato chips Tom Yum flavored that suit my taste bud cannot stop carving. Tesco Genmaicha my favourite too as I love the taste of rich and toasty flavour. The Tesco shirmps range is good for mini party platter too.
The Tesco brand products the price is affordable and indeed Tesco product berbaloi dan berquality.
Have you tried any Tesco Brand product? If yes let me know what it is.
Being mom of two boys, I am always on the go and has to fetch my kids from school also send son for tuition. Busy parenting didn't stop me from shopping groceries, online shopping is convenient now. Next month will be Chinese New Year, there's lot of preparation for it. Today I took time off to attend the 11 Street x JOCOM: Cooking Up Prosperity Launch at One City.
Preparation work for Chinese New Year, especially the reunion dinner,
is often extensive and time-consuming. As the festive celebration is
around the corner, 11street – Malaysia’s number two online marketplace –
has reinforced its partnership with JOCOM to bring prepping and
shopping for Chinese New Year grocery items to another level of
convenience.
This partnership is off the back of
11street’s grocery category emerging as one of the platform’s continued
focus in 2018, in which it saw more than 30% increase in its gross
merchandising value (GMV) in 2017 as compared to 2016.
Bruce
Lim, Vice President of Merchandising at 11street said: “More Malaysian
consumers would start to explore shopping for groceries and other
household items online. This holds true and as 2017 comes to an end, we
expect this category to only flourish from hereon.
“This
motivates us to strengthen our collaboration with JOCOM and become the
e-commerce platform that offers great variety of fresh produce and other
frozen goods as food preparation for Chinese New Year heightens. With
our host of offering coupled with our established technological prowess,
we aim to enable consumers to use our platform as the go-to channel to
fulfil all their grocery needs, especially during the festive season.”

Chef Quality Cooking, At Home
The partnership between 11street
and JOCOM goes beyond opening an online channel for grocery shopping,
for it also includes “Cooking Up Prosperity”, a 10-episode cooking show

prominent chef in Malaysia, and hosted by well-known host and TV
personality, Wong Chui Ling, the show will feature simple-to-follow
Chinese New Year recipes using fresh ingredients available on JOCOM’s
online store at 11street.
Joshua Sew, Chief Executive
Officer of JOCOM said: “When we first partnered with 11street last year,
we wanted to expand our outreach to a wider community. More
importantly, we hoped to empower Malaysians with the convenience of
shopping for groceries and other household items online. As a way
forward, we produced the cooking show to showcase that Chinese New Year
preparation can be made simpler if they know where to get the
ingredients and how to best prepare them, without the need to leave
their homes.”
