7 Things to do in the Klang Valley this weekend: 15 & 16 April 2023
Fun times ahead
Finally, the weekend has arrived! If the countdown to Raya is making you buzz with excitement, we’ve got plenty of Eid bazaars for you to check out around the Klang Valley. Still looking for more fun activities to do? From a brand new three-in-one wellness spot to a local theatre production that will tickle all your senses, here are seven things to add to your weekend excursions right now:
1. Brew a nice cuppa with the Nespresso Barista Creations for Milk
The season of Ramadan is all about practising mindfulness, gratitude and good works. Doing something for the ones you love is a surefire way to show your appreciation towards them so why not consider surprising your parents with a hot cup of coffee during sahur and iftar? The newly revamped Barista Creations for Milk range includes existing blends—Vaniglia, Caramello and Cioccolatino—and the newest addition Nocciola, a rich hazelnut flavour with a hint of praline and cereal notes. Plus, you can even follow four Raya-inspired recipes for a special twist. For an extra big surprise, consider getting any one of Nespresso’s gift sets during this Ramadan promotional period which includes 30 coffee capsules, an exclusive cup set, a milk frother and more starting from RM799.
