The Expansion of the Angry Birds

By, Siti Shazana Binti Salleh

Today, world are exposing to the new cartoon icon which is Angry Birds. It was like a phenomenon that influence people around the world. There are few items that present the Angry Birds icon such as toys, t-shirt, and obviously are game. While some people thought Angry Birds was just quick fad game, there are some people has continually proving them very wrong. It is reported that Angry Birds hit the 1 million, then 5 million and after that already achieved to half a million downloads. Now, Angry Birds has been downloaded more than 500 million times!

         Actually, it started with the game progressed and expand to Angry Birds clothing, key chains, phone covers and many more. Plus, they went above and beyond just a popular game; they do create a community which millions of people now engage; 30 million users and over 300 million minutes of playing time each day. It was a good responds from the fans of Angry Birds and shows that Angry Birds has been played in space.

         Nevertheless, Angry Birds keeps their community engaged by continuing to produce new games, new levels and even recently came out with a new bird altogether, the Orange Bird. As we can see, from the game to clothing, plushies and more, the Angry Birds Franchise is quickly expanding to capture markets. It has been succeed by competing among the others cartoon icons which shows that it could be branding for today.

          Recently, there are few people who asked about phenomenally successful casual computer game which is Angry Birds, which designed for mobiles, tablets and other platforms. For those who don’t have a clue what Angry Birds is all about, here is a quick synopsis. The game involves employing a sling shot to propel small cannonball-shaped birds with really bad attitudes at rather fragile glass and timber houses populated by basically catatonic green pigs. Obviously, this sounds like a truly dumb concept. Anyway, there is still over 50 million individuals have downloaded this simple game and also many paid a few dollars or more for the advanced version.

        As seen here, I would say that these Angry Birds are clearly up to something worth looking into. It is because it creating truly engaging software experiences is more complex than one might assume, even in the simplest of computer games. Plus, there are some cognitive sciences behind why Angry Birds is truly winning user experience. Angry Birds Space takes the series to new territory in more than one sense.

          So far, Angry Birds is already well known because of their games and the expanding of the Angry Birds as this fast make it so famous around the world. Plus, nowadays people do addicted to it. The phenomena are good as long as it does give positive effect to their fans.

Drift at Laman Grill.....

Laman Grill Steak & Bar-B-Que. Located at Laman Seri Business Park, Seksyen 13 Shah Alam. It is quite isolated compared  to other restaurant that we can see it through the roadside. Suddenly it makes me curious of is there anyone will go to this restaurant? But then, this restaurant is owned by Chef Zubir which is one of the panel judges at Masterchef Malaysia. Would people care where it is? And how hard to reach there? Totally it would be no problem as long as they can experience the food here. For me, it is quite isolated because we park the bus outside the location of the restaurant. So we need to walk around 50 meter to reach the restaurant. On my way step out from the bus and walked to restaurant. My mind was like puzzle towards what was the restaurant and food look like. My expectation was very high because it is owned by the top celebrity chef whom is Chef Zubir. We reached there around 7.40 p.m and the view from the outside look very romantic and I feel eager to step in to the restaurant.

Oh my first thing that I have seen there is the kitchen. Yes I can see the kitchen where all those chef were making food for us. After have a seat with my another four friends, we were served with orange juice. While waiting or the main course, I went around the restaurant to get into the concept and I found that it is quite romantic but then its too crowded.

My food arrived. 

This is what I have for my meal which is Marble Chicken Chop. Its look very tempting and I can’t wait to have this. Firstly I try the crunchy part of the chicken which the breaded part of it. Oh its so delicious with the combination of black pepper sauce, mixed vegetables and baked potato as a starch. On the middle of the plate is the chicken fillet and it was very tender and juicy. When I have it in mouth, I really enjoy it and try to find what the ingredients include in this meal. Next bite of the crunchy chicken and now I really enjoy it till I can’t say anything. Seriously I do enjoy the food very much. This is what we can say that having 5 stars food with 3 stars price. What I can say now is it is reasonable, affordable and adorable food to be experienced.

My dessert is chocolate caramel banana. 

This is really enjoyable dessert I have with the combination of chocolate caramel and banana. At first I really curious how was the taste will be like. Because on top of the dessert is a cocoa powder dust and first I think it was tiramisu. After have it using dessert spoon, I do fall in love with this dessert because of the combination was perfect. Anything more I can say, I LOVE this Chocolate Caramel Banana extremely fanatical.

Picture with Chef Zubir...Thank you chef for entertain us and do give fantastic food. For sure i will recommend this Laman Grill to my colleague... ;-)
