Spotify raises Premium subscription prices in Malaysia
Music streaming service Spotify has increased the monthly subscription fees for its Premium plans available in Malaysia. The price hike ranges from RM1 to RM3 across plans. New subscribers are subject to the pricing change immediately, while existing customers have until their next billing cycle before the new monthly fee takes effect. The monthly fee for the individual Spotify Premium increased from RM15.90 to RM17.50 (up by RM1.60), Spotify Premium Duo from RM21.50 to RM24.50 (RM3), Spotify Family from RM24.90 to RM27.90 (RM3), and Spotify Premium Student from RM8.50 to RM9.50 (RM1). Spotify last raised its prices in August 2023, with smaller hikes on plans ranging between RM1 and RM1.70. This move comes after Spotify announced on Monday (Aug 4) that it would increase prices in select markets, including South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region, while it aims to improve margins. It also said that customers will receive an email about the pricing change over the next month.

Mee Tarik Your Way Citarasa Anda: Perfectly-seasoned noodles in soul-soothing broth with tender beef slices
Not to be confused with One Bowl Lamian over in Pavilion Bukit Bintang, Mee Tarik Your Way Citarasa Anda shares a few quirks with its counterpart — like serving Lanzhou noodles, a similar menu layout, and even some branding elements. Oh, and let's not forget the mouthful of a name. But that's where the resemblance ends. It's worth noting that Mee Tarik Your Way is located right next to another mee tarik spot, Zhang Lala Mee Tarik. Clearly, they're not fazed by the competition! That said, the vibe outside is… intense. Their staff camp out at the entrance, energetically inviting passersby in with enthusiastic claims of having the 'best mee tarik.' (Which really makes you start doubting them being 'unfazed' with the competition.) The spot is just a straightforward 500-ish meters from Merdeka MRT Station — easy enough to find, but the journey there, under Petaling Street's unforgiving sun, felt like a mini-marathon. By the time I arrived, drenched and gasping for air, I was greeted with a less-than-refreshing discovery: the restaurant wasn't air-conditioned and was poorly ventilated. Flying solo, I was left to claim a tiny table tucked away in a corner — far, far from the sweet relief of both the standing and ceiling fans. So, a little pro tip for you: brace yourself for the heat or pick your seating strategy wisely! Glancing at the menu, I had to double-check if I'd somehow wandered into another branch of One Bowl Lamian under a sneaky alias — it looked that similar. With its green-themed signage and overall vibe, it would be easy for anyone to mistake this spot for the former mee tarik joint. That said, I went ahead and ordered the Spicy Sichuan Beef Noodles (RM15.90). Unlike its 'twin,' this place didn't offer customisation for noodle size or shape, so I was left with the standard mee tarik — about the size of regular spaghetti. The bowl arrived looking promising: a clear beef broth topped with beef slices, cilantro, red chilli flakes, and a generous heap of noodles. We tried the best-rated beef noodles in KL At first glance, the broth seemed light and clear, but after mixing everything, it darkened slightly, giving off a more robust appearance. I took my first slurp, and oh wow — seasoned to perfection. It had a distinct salty edge, similar to the soup at KBN King's, but not overly beefy, which was a slight letdown if you're a fan of deeper, richer broths. The noodles, as expected, arrived in their signature endless strands, clumped together like they were holding a secret noodle meeting. Twirling them was a mini-battle, and I had to wrestle them apart without splashing the broth all over my shirt. While they weren't particularly bouncy or chewy, they had a firm bite, breaking easily without turning mushy. No major complaints here. Now, the beef slices. They were paper-thin, with translucent fat membranes that might gross out some people. But when it came to flavour and texture, they were spot on — tender, perfectly braised, and balanced with just the right amount of fat and tendon. Absolutely delightful. As for the extras, the 3 slices of radish and fresh cilantro added a surprising pop of tanginess, momentarily reminding me of asam pedas. It was a subtle but enjoyable twist that rounded out the dish nicely. Despite its uncanny resemblance to One Bowl Lamian, I've got to admit — Mee Tarik Your Way does taste better. That said, I do have one gripe: for a dish with 'spicy' in the name, it didn't pack any heat whatsoever. Of course, spice levels are subjective, so maybe others might find it different. As for the service… let's just say it leans a little too far into enthusiastic territory. If you're dining alone, things can get a bit awkward — and that's coming from someone who's pretty comfortable with solo meals.
