Goodies aplenty for Malaysians
Eateries offering free food and drinks for all valid voters
PETALING JAYA: As Malaysians encourage one another to come out to vote today, some eateries are offering free food and drinks for the same reason.
The message is clear. Vote and show your stained finger after that and you can redeem your freebies.
Bangsar folk who cast their votes in time for breakfast can take a stroll from the voting centre along Jalan Bangkung to Lucky Bo restaurant, which is open from 8am to 5pm for a packet of nasi lemak at just 10 sen instead of the normal price of RM5 nett.
If they are game for it, they can then take a drive to the Teh Tarik Place outlets in The Curve or Empire Shopping Gallery or even the IOI Mall in Puchong which are offering teh tarik for half price for all customers the whole day.
For those who missed the morning nasi lemak, do not worry.
Tiki Taka in Medan Damansara is also offering free nasi lemak to voters, and the restaurant only opens from 4pm.
Voters can also claim a free nasi lemak and teh tarik from outlets under The Big Group.
Limited to 200 per outlet, they can be claimed at Plan B in Publika, Mid Valley and in Ipoh, Ben’s in Pavilion, Suria KLCC, The Gardens Mall, Publika and Bangsar Shopping Centre, and Ben’s General Food Store in Plaza Batai, Glo Damansara and Publika.
Petaling Jaya voters can enjoy a banana leaf lunch with Masala Wheels, which is offering a “buy one, free one” deal for voters. The place opens between noon and 2.30pm.
Only for today, Epic Fit Meals is offering a free Chummy Burger to voters at any of their three outlets in Damansara Perdana, Bandar Sunway and Mont Kiara.
