Sugar, spice, and everything nice – here’s how and where you can treat your loved one to an intimate journey of the senses this Valentine’s Day.
Every February, KL springs alive with all things romantic. Our favourite malls and restaurants turn pink in anticipation of Valentine’s Day, reminding us to book a date or grab a gift.
Well, it’s one week to that day, but we’re pretty sure many of us are still undecided about what to do or where to go. Don’t worry, as there are still intimate dinner menus and lovely treats out there to be enjoyed with a love one – or a hot new date, if that’s what you’re up to this February 14.
Take your pick from our list, which will continue to expand all this week.
