We are into the second week of 2018 — how are your New Year’s resolutions holding up? We hope you’re still treating your body well with healthy food and getting around to planning the year’s holidays. But we’re only human — we need our cheat days too, which is why this week’s Cheat Sheet will bring your diet plans some respite in the form of pizzas. Wood fired pizzas, that is.
Malaysia is also still going strong with the monsoon season, which means constant chilly weather. What better way to celebrate the lower temperatures than with cosy turtleneck sweaters? Make like Justin Timberlake and get your own too.
But don’t take our word for it. Read on for this week’s edition of the Cheat Sheet to know more about what went down this week.
Food
Take a break from the healthy food deliveries and treat yourself for being so disciplined with your diet. Just because you’re having pizzas, it doesn’t mean that they need to be unhealthy. Wood fired pizzas retain the nutritional values of their ingredients thanks to the faster cooking process. This means that pizza can be actually be nutritious (sort of).
Style
This morning in Kuala Lumpur, the temperature clocked 22°C. What better way to celebrate the chilly weather (and freezing offices) by decking yourself out in a turtleneck sweater? It just so happened that Justin Timberlake also recently brought sweaters back, which just means it’s trendy again.
Travel
Gone are the days when museum food is subpar and overpriced. We introduce five museums around the world with restaurants serving delicious food that look very much like works of art themselves. One of the restaurants, Odette, is a little closer to home — right next door, in fact, at the National Gallery of Singapore.
Living
Bath time is about to get a lot better and smarter thanks to these new gadgets equipping the bathroom. From towel warmers to digital showers that you can control from your smartphone, we explore the trends in bath technologies for this year.
