evian launches its first label-free, 100% recyclable, 100% recycled bottle! evian announced the launch of its new bottle design with an engraved logo in Singapore, as the brand looks at innovative ways to reduce its use of virgin plastic. In line with Global Recycling Day on 18 March, evian is inspiring all of us to do our part for a more sustainable future through sustainable redesign. Reinventing the way evian natural mineral water is packaged for consumers to enjoy, the bottle also presents an opportunity to reaffirm the brand’s beliefs and involvement in protecting the environment. With almost two years in the making, the bottle is a first of its kind for the brand; label-free and created from 100% recycled plastic. This new stripped back bottle perfectly reflects what’s on the inside – evian’s uniquely sourced natural mineral water, the way nature intended; pure and refreshing. A 15-year journey through the French Alps gives evian its naturally low mineralized composition and a distinctive cool, crisp taste. Ongoing Commitment to Circularity by 2025 Aligned with Singapore’s Zero Waste Masterplan to create a more sustainable living environment and pave the way towards a zero-waste nation, the introduction of evian’s new label-free bottle marks a significant milestone in the brand’s journey to becoming a ‘circular’ brand by 2025 – making all of its plastic bottles from 100% recycled plastic*. In early 2020, evian received a global certification for becoming carbon neutral. The achievement of this global standard reflects the outcome of evian’s commitment and ongoing efforts to reduce plastic use and use of recycled plastic. While the bulk of Singapore’s efforts to manage plastic waste are downstream solutions such as recycling or upcycling, statistics have shown that the overall recycling rate has been hovering at about 60 per cent in recent years (Min, 2021). According to a report by Channel News Asia, one of the challenges cited during the typical recycling process is at the materials recovery facility, where approximately only 50 to 60 per cent out of 60 tonnes of materials received from household collections per day are suitable for recycling (Min, 2021). The launch of the new evian bottle is set to cement the brand's sustainability commitment and further pave the way for efforts to reduce plastic waste. evian’s Label-free Bottle evian’s new bottle design will be available as a 400ml bottle and features an ‘evian pink’ bottle cap; both firsts within the evian product range. The new bottle is now available at Lazada, Redmart and SaladStop, and will be made available at selected hotels, cafes and other retail outlets in the months to come.

SPRING INTO THE NEW YEAR Start The Lunar New Year On A High With Asian-Inspired French dishes For the first time ever, Ginett Restaurant & Wine Bar will be serving a Lunar New Year-inspired French menu. Paying homage to the festivities through incorporating auspicious ingredients with French techniques, this promotional menu will be available exclusively till 28 February 2021, for dinner only. Five a la carte dishes will be available, ranging from a light and refreshing starter to hearty mains – there’s something for every palate to celebrate the Lunar New Year. To start, a Hamachi Carpaccio served “Yu Sheng” Style ($26++) featuring Japanese Yellowtail fillet, atop a colourful celebration of winter radish, pear and cucumber, and served with sour plum dressing to balance the buttery texture and bold flavours of the Hamachi. The crispy "pok pok" crackles in the mouth perfectly balanced with the dressing and flavours of the Yu Sheng. For mains, poultry lovers can indulge in the Burgaud Challans Duck ($30++) marinated with pu-erh tea and Chinese five spice. Known for its rich and flavourful meat, the French duck breast is served with aged soy and charred baby leeks, an auspicious symbol of wealth. Next, the Crispy Suckling Pig ($32++) served on a bed of pumpkin purée with sautéed broccolini and tart kumquats, symbolic of gold and fortune. Prepared over the course of 2 days, the suckling pig belly is marinated overnight then followed by a slow confit for 6 hours to render some of the fat and tenderise the meat. The meat rests for 12 more hours before being roasted to crisp up the edges. The skin was thin and roasted to perfection, giving it a crackling crispiness on the palate. This had just the right ratio of fats to meat. Some other places serve suckling pig that is either too fatty or too meaty and lean which makes each bite really dry and bland. For those who love pasta, indulge in a Grilled Lobster Tagliolini ($38++). House-made tagliolini is cooked with garlic and chilli, XO sauce and topped with a charcoal-grilled Maine lobster. The lobster was fresh and well grilled, and the XO sauce was well mixed into the French rendition of our local "Mee Kia Tar". Last but definitely not least, end your meal on a sweet note with the Pineapple Tarte Tatin ($15++) – this is Ginett’s spin on the famous French upside-down apple tart and the Lunar New Year’s Ong Lai. Pineapple and cranberry jam is stuffed into puff pastry which is topped with caramelised pineapples, known to bring good luck, and served a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

*Note for the reader: if you already know what Earth 2 is and you just need a promo code to get a 5% discount, here it is: JIEKG8ZV7E Continue reading if you want to know more about this futuristic concept or get involved in it,. WHAT IS EARTH 2? Earth 2 is a futuristic concept for a second earth; a metaverse, between virtual and physical reality in which real-world geolocations on a sectioned map correspond to user generated digital virtual environments. These environments can be owned, bought, sold, and in the near future deeply customized. A virtual 1:1 scale version of Earth is inevitable and Earth 2 is the beginning of this exciting future. Phase 1 is now live and represents the central global body that aims to determine ownership of digital assets and property inside this futuristic virtual metaverse of Earth. Built on top of MapBox technology, the team at Earth 2 have created a geographically linked digital grid layer that spans across the entire planet allowing people to claim ownership of Virtual Land in the form of tiles. It is their vision that Virtual Land will increase in value over time based on demand, location and earning potential, much the same way that physical land does, so be sure to claim your own land in key locations around the world early on! Earth 2 was launched on 3rd November 2020 and aims to map the planet Earth in a virtual copy, where it is possible to buy geographic areas. A digital version of the world where you can make trades and from which you can make income. The project is still in phase 1 and at the moment thousands of users around the world are competing for buying lands in important places in the world, such as the central areas of the metropolises of the most industrialized nations. In the near future (first half of 2021), a virtual game will be released, allowing people to play inside the digital earth, finding resources and building structures inside it, with advertising possibilities inside the virtual earth. HOW TO INVEST/BUY LANDS? You can purchase lands directly on the official Earth 2 website. You may need some time to find available lands in the world’s most popular cities like London or New York, but with a little determination you will make it. And specifically for this initial phase it is also possible to take advantage of a 5% discount on the purchase price, by entering the following code on the purchase page: JIEKG8ZV7E. A common question asked; is it better to buy many small lands with less money each or a unique big piece of land worth more? The answer can depend on your goal. Basing on the hints released by Earth 2 team, a small piece of land can be easier to sell if your goal at some point os to monetize the investment just by selling higher than the purchase price. Once the game will kick in, however, the revenues coming from bigger pieces of land will be more promising compared to small slots. Earth 2 is anyway planning to allow to split a bigger land in smaller portions and use them separately. HOW MUCH IS EARTH 2 WORTH? As in everything, the value of the investment is closely linked to how much that object is coveted by other potential investors. And although the property is purely virtual, it is easy to understand the great potential of the project: the existence of a virtual version of the planet can represent an interesting opportunity for many realities, such as video game producers or business activities existing in reality. Not to mention that the penetration of virtual reality in the future is destined to increase, and therefore the opportunity is to own a virtual asset that could be worth a lot in the years to come. With still rather low costs: at the beginning of 2021 the cost of a property in the key nations of the world (United States, United Kingdom but also Italy) was still quite cheap, with cases in which it was possible to buy coveted lands even for less than 1 dollar per tile. Although the project took off at the end of 2020, the number of buyers in Earth 2 is increasing dramatically, to the point that the servers are often overloaded. The competition is therefore really high right now and those interested would do well not to miss a moment: there are already several users sharing experiences of investments started with less than 1000$ and then worth over 100.000$ after less than a month. All with a (still) very simple registration process and payment conveniently performed via Paypal. FINAL WORDS Could the millionaires of the future be born right now? Maybe yes, maybe no. Basically it is a bet. It is up to you to decide when and how much to get involved. Meanwhile, the question launched by the platform is captivating: have you claimed your piece of the future?

Hutong has recently launched a brand new menu featuring Szechuan BBQ skewers, with each skewer starting at $1. Yes $1 per skewer, and it is not a publicity stunt. The restaurant's new menu comprises over 40 varieties of Szechuan appetizers and BBQ skewers, from meat to seafood and vegetables. Hutong’s skewers are kept warm throughout the meal, as they are served over a griller instead of on plates. Each griller is specially imported from China. All the skewers are marinated with a special inhouse blend consisting of salt, white pepper powder, cooking wine and cumin powder. For mutton and chicken wing, dark soya sauce is added to lend an umami note. Left overnight, the marinade permeates every inch of the ingredient, resulting in a flavourful bite. Then, a special blend of salt, sugar, garlic powder, cumin powder, chicken stock powder and chilli flakes (for spicy offerings) is sprinkled atop the skewer. Be spoilt for choice with offerings including chicken meat, pig stomach, pig intestine, premium beef cube, mutton leg meat, tentacles of squid and fresh prawns. Temper the meat indulgence with oyster mushrooms, sliced lotus root, broccoli and romaine lettuce. Each skewer is charcoal grilled, a cooking technique that achieves a nice smoky finish. Chilli oil is used to grill the spicy offerings while cane pepper oil is used for the non-spicy items — each type of oil adds another depth of flavour. We decided to drop by on a cool December evening to try out the new menu. We reckoned BBQ food would warm our bellies and hearts during this rainy monsoon season. The interior is very Chinese Oriental chic with hanging lanterns and antique furniture. The staff were very attentive and customer oriented and we were shown to our seats. We ordered our drinks first for some pre dinner cocktails and we were recommended the Moutai Punch $12 and Moutai Colada $12. The Punch was like a Yuzu cocktail with a shot of Moutai to give it that extra oomph, while the Colada was a coconut base Pina Colada with infused Moutai. Both were highly refreshing and served as a palate cleanser before we ordered our food. We started off with a BBQ Platter featuring an assortment of their best selling skewers starting from $1 per skewer. The Grilled Oysters ($7 for 2 pieces) were huge and juicy. My goodness look at the size of those oysters. They were topped with a special Szechuan Mala chilli sauce on to give it that fusion oriental spiciness kick. It was a refreshing change from the usual oysters with tabasco sauce or chilli cocktail sauce served at hotel buffets and western resturants. Next up was the Premium Half Shell Scallops ($8.80 for 2 pieces). It paired really well with our cokctails and white wine. If you are craving other types of cuisines, you will be glad to know that you can order across several other brands under the Katrina Group, all conveniently located at Clarke Quay. These restaurants include Japanese bar Tomo Izakaya, Indonesian restaurant Bayang, Thai restaurant RENNThai and Mexican bar Muchos. We decided to try out some Indonesian food from Bayang nearby. We tried the Sambal Stingray $18 and Satay Madura at $1 per stick. Wow these prices are really reasonable, considering that a similar stingray dish at a hawker centre would go for $12-16 and a stick of satay already costs $0.70-0.90 depending on the hawker centre location. The stingray was fresh, the flesh was tender and we did not detect any unpleasant odours typically associated with stingray that is not fresh or poorly prepared. The satay was well marinated in Bayang's secret marinade sauce and was tender and juicy. The signature house dish Mala Xiao Long Xia with Moutai $38.90 was a visually appealing treat. A generous amount of baby crawfish is stir-fried with a blend of aromatic mala spices. When served, a shot of Moutai is drizzled over the dish; the overall dish is then flambéed for a dramatic presentation. Each crawfish is juicy and succulent, and steeped in the natural oils of the spices, becomes incredibly fragrant and wonderfully spicy. Summary of our verdict: The food quality was excellent and prices extremely reasonable and hard to beat. We are srcatching our heads to name another similar restaurant that can offer this at the same prices. It is positioned as a Chinese style Japanese Izakaya skewers with drinks, perfect for after work gatherings and even family outings. About Hutong: Hutongs are old alleys and narrow streets typically found in Beijing, China. The ancient Chinese built their houses with courtyards close to each other to form narrow passageways between them. Many neighbourhoods and relationships were forged through these structural of hutongs as they become a pivotal part in the lives of the local Chinese people. Today, many hutongs have gradually disappeared to make way for modernisation in the vast city. Hutong seeks to retain the distinctive character and charm of such unique, diminished features in old Beijing. The 110-seat restaurant is flawlessly decorated with bold red lanterns and Chinese silk drapes that claim all attention. Carefully selected antique fixtures complement and add a refinement, nostalgic feel to the restaurant. Our Northern Chinese-inspired fine cuisine appeals to diners with a palate for all things traditional and Chinese. Interestingly put together, they bring out the laidback charm of old Beijing in a sharp contrast with the vibrant backdrop by the Clarke Quay riverside.

With beautiful lights and decorative ornaments at its entrance, I’m Kim showcased a level of aesthetic artistry even from outside the restaurant. Aptly, the establishment is located just beside the School of the arts. The wonderful decor of the place is only outclassed by the quality of food they offer. Banchan and Jjigae Banchans (side dishes) and Jjigaes (soups) are part of the Korean cuisine. While it may seem like side dishes and soups are only meant to complement the main dishes, the banchans at I’m Kim are delicacies in their own right. You’ll find the usual kimchi, tteokbokki, pancake, japchae (sweet potato noodles) that make up a Korean spread. On top of that, patrons can also help themselves to a colourful plate of sushi. The highlight of the banchans is the Signature wings. Calling these wings a “scene stealer” is no exaggeration as some hungry customers have gone to I’m Kim solely for these delicious bites. The jjigaes on the other hand, offer balance to the heavy selection of meats. Patrons can choose from 3 different kinds of soups - ginseng tonic soup, kimchi and collagen soup. I personally love the ginseng soup. The taste is not overbearing so you can appreciate it even if you’re not fond of ginseng. The mild flavour also stirs your appetite and keeps you hungry for more. Variety of meat Charred meat and sizzling fat on the grill is the foundation of Korean barbecue. So it’s no surprise that I’m Kim offers a decent variety of meat. As you put your slices on the grill, you get a whiff of the smoky aromas that come when fresh meat meets a hot grill. We started with a few slices of Galbi (short ribs), glazed with a sweet soy sauce marinade. Then we piled on the three-layered pork belly. The juices and oil that flowed out of the pork belly enhanced its taste even further. Just as we thought we had chosen the best slice of meat available, our host Adrian recommended his favourite – Thin sliced pork. The flavour of this pork was strong and crisp, almost like bacon. It was delicious even without any condiments added. Once we had our first taste, we immediately ordered the next round. Be sure to order this when you’re at I’m Kim! Drink Pairing: Makgeolli With a good dose of heat and meat at the table, a nice beverage is recommended. There are several non-alcoholic drinks you can order at I’m Kim. These are free-flow and waiters are prompt in filling your glass when it gets low. Alternatively, you can choose to get some alcohol to pair with your food. We had some Makgeolli, poured onto small cups for easy and traditional consumption. Makgeolli is a milky rice wine that is low in alcohol content so you can kick back with a few cups without feeling buzzed. If you prefer your drinks strong, there is Hite beer and soju available too. Concluding thoughts I’m Kim is a meat lover’s paradise. Their selection of meat leaves everyone satisfied and their banchans are amazing. The buffet is very reasonably priced and you’ll find it hard to get a better deal in the area for the quality of food offered. We had a wonderful time at I’m Kim and after a hearty meal, we couldn’t help but plan our next visit. Head on down to I’m Kim at 1 Zubir Said Drive #01-04 School of The Arts, 227968 For a halal option, head over to their Captain Kim outlet at 300 Tampines Ave 5, #01-06 NTUC Income Tampines Junction, Singapore

The team at Rosette graced the 65th Anniversary of Blancpain together with @blancpain #Blancpain Ambassador Imran Ahmad at Trapizza. Blancpains holds the distinction of being the first modern diver’s watch, and it’s Fifty Fathoms collection embodies the Blancpain’s passion for the marine world. Introduced in 1953 with the creation of the first modern diver’s watch, they have worked alongside divers, scientists and underwater photographers in their exploration and discovery of the awe-inspiring beauty of the oceans, contributing to the revelations of our fascinating world and the motivation to protect it. All the Fifty Fathoms models bear the principal distinctive characteristics that forge the unique and special reputation of their legendary ancestor and establish it as the archetypal diver’s watch. Marc A. Hayek, Blancpain’s President & CE shared in a sincere message to us that “the continuation of the Fifty Fathoms' role is to open up the underwater world and that Blancpain has been supporting those who raised awareness of related oceanic issues and especially those who convey a positive message in inspiring the beauty of what's intact in the oceans. From the birth of their legendary Fifty Fathoms which made its mark as the world’s first modern diving watch, defining the genre ever since, they have established intimate connections with the world’s oceans and the communities dedicated to their preservation. Working closely with passionate divers, leading scientists, underwater explorers, environmentalists, and photographers, their mission has grown far beyond the creation of the world’s finest diving timepieces. They have come to understand and support vital initiatives aimed at ocean preservation and the building of public understanding of the cause. Their ocean preservation efforts are summarized with what they term as the Blancpain Ocean Commitment to which they have devoted substantial resources.
