EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019 campaign




I am honored to be invited to witness for the launch of EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019 campaign by The Tourism Authority of Thailand, Malaysia (TAT) recently.






I believe most of the people like to travel to Thailand because of their foods, art, culture, people and many more.
Now you can also enjoy all this great Thai foods at Mr Tuk Tuk restaurant in Malaysia.

EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019 campaign also mark a collaboration between tourism and restaurants in Malaysia. This is in line with the Amazing Thailand’s “Open to the New Shades” campaign, focusing on five main travel sectors to help international visitors experience the Kingdom from a new perspective. The concept includes: Gastronomy, Arts and Crafts, Thai Culture, Nature, and Thai Way of Life.

This EAT THAI, VISIT THAILAND 2019 campaign, which begins on March 20 to April 30, is a collaboration between TAT and all the eight outlets of Mr Tuk Tuk in Malaysia.


During this campaign, diners who spend more than RM50 per receipt at any of the eight Mr Tuk Tuk outlets will stand a chance to win one of the 20 prizes which include a FREE trip to Bangkok for two persons plus a 3 days 2 nights hotel stay, five luggage, ten handbags and four Mr. Tuk Tuk dining vouchers.





Mr. Ken Leong of Mr Tuk Tuk said, “I feel very honored to be chosen as a partner to promote Thai tourism through our food. All our eight outlets are participating in this campaign and they are at Setia City Mall, Gamuda Walk, The Gardens, The Starling Mall, Sunway Pyramid,Sunway Velocity, Empire City and Nu Sentral. For this campaign, we will be introducing five new dishes and a brand new drink.”


















Mr. Ahman Mad-Adam, Director of TAT, Kuala Lumpur office said: “Thai food is more than a cuisine, it is a lifelong passion. It is a love affair with deep roots in the country's culture and most importantly, in the family. We believe it is the same in Malaysia, where people love to eat and the food bond people together. Many Malaysian tourists travel to Thailand with the objective to taste Thai food. This year we have the new 2019 edition of MICHELIN Guide, which reaches to Phuket and Phang-nga. This proves that Thailand has a wide variety of food for everyone, from MICHELIN Star restaurants, street food, HALAL food to fine-dining and many more.


 
These are the three Instagram contest winners, lets congrats them as they have win some great prize on that day.
 

 

The chef from Mr Tuk Tuk start to hands-on the cooking demo and show us how he fried the prawns and pairing with their own recipe sauce.


 
We also try to do it, mix the prawns with the special Lemongrass chili sauce.
I like this " Thai Prawn Salad with Lemongrass " very much as the prawns so fresh and the sauce taste good which made from their own recipe.
