Turning 34 With An Awesome Coffee Machine
26 Jan
My husband officially turned 34 years OLD yesterday!
And because I got super excited and couldn’t wait, I gave him his gift a day before the birthday while we were in my parent’s place. So he could go to work the next day and tell his colleagues what his wonderful wife got him!
While he was downstairs talking to dad, I ran up and arranged his gift on the bed.
Is that for meeee? wonders Baby Sairah.
Okay when daddy comes in, what are you gonna do?
Why, I’ll give him this cutest, sweetest angelic look, like this:
And then, I’ll pass him his b’day card.
He’ll be super touch coz we said we wanted to get him a nice sports car but couldn’t afford it so we had to settle on buying this gift instead. It’s the thought that counts 
Then I’ll try my luck at opening the present…
Hmm, wonder what my wifey got me this time? Trust me when I say it’s starting to get tough deciding what to buy this man!! But kudos to me for lugging around this HEAVY gift all the way from Mid Valley to Garden’s carpark despite my poor back.
The smile that says it allllll
I obviously nailed that perfect gift 
I got him the Nescafe Dolce Gusto Circolo because my husband is a serious coffee drinker. That man drinks at least 3 cups to keep him running. Plus it did help that I caught him checking out this machine a few months ago but knew he’d be too stingy to buy it for himself
Coffeeeee machineeee
And because we have limited varities in Malaysia, I got hold of someone from the UK to help buy me various capsule flavors to satisfy his coffee cravings. Check here out to see how many crazy flavors they have there!
I got the man least 7 packs (I’m crazy I know! ), ahem, so that’s coffee enough to last 2-3 months I reckon But I do seriously hope Nescafe would bring me more flavors coz the current ones we have is kinda pathethic! Just four freaking flavors 
Baby girl in her naughty mode
MINE! I WANT COFFEE
Coofffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee……………Haha proof that Sairah isn’t exactly angelic sometimes, lol
She’s starting to hate wearing socks. Constantly finds ways of pulling it off. Even her shoes too.
Of course we got home and somebody couldn’t wait to set up his new coffee machine. It was set up in a jiffy coz instructions are pretty straight forward.
Oh hai, just setting up me new coffee machine
All done. Doesn’t she look pretttyy? Now we’re quite keen on having nice coffee mugs/cups and the whole works to go with our little ‘cafe’. Shit man, we’ll NEVER have to step into Starbucks or Coffeebean and pay cut-throat high prices for coffee anymore. Now we’ll have good coffee to go. What I love about this is the convenience! Beverage is done in less than 1 minute (perfect for a lazy wife like me, then again I usually let the coffee/tea making to the husband, heh), you can always pack it to go in a nice tumbler and have this on the way to work…….such a nice machine to have seriously and I have no regrets purchasing this for us the husband. My only complain is the loud sound that it makes when it’s in action, lol but we can live with it….
We were deciding which flavors to try first, but it was late and we didn’t want any coffee intake.
Good thing I bought choco-cino which is a beautiful smooth blend of hot chocolate! You can actually control the milk level if you don’t want it too milky. So far I”ve tried this and the Mocha and just lovee lovee it.
LOL the look that says it all. It was superrr yummy! But now I gotta find ways of making sure we have ample supply of this.
And then on his birthday morning, somebody actually work up EARLY (he almost never wakes up early for work!) so he could get ready and serve himself a hot cup of coffee!
I can already see that this gift was indeed love at first sight.
P.s: I purchased this at Harvey Norman and got a 8% discount with some free samples in view of their sale. Sale is on till end of this month, incase anyone is keen Machine also comes with a 2 year warranty, sweet!
Tempting tempting!!! Hmm now thinking of one for myself… Who can I “pao” it from?!
I love coffee!! I have the conventional coffee brewing machine at home (which I’ve yet to setup in this house after we moved in, like 3.5years ago!!).
I cant seem to find nice coffee powder around… We seriously lack good coffee stuff around here!
LOL what are husbands for! Tell him buying this for you would be like buying it for him if he likes coffee that is
Tell me about it, I think you can find good coffee powder here, it’s just that it’s pretty mahal! At least that’s what the hubby tells me. But I reckon if you like FAST good coffee then the Dolce Gusto is a good investment. Perfect for lazy wives like me 
Better than going to Starbucks and paying alot for it.
I was trying to get him to buy me a camera! He’ll settle happily for this coffee machine cos its a whole load cheaper than the camera, so no, the hubby is out for this one this time, hehe!!
LOL smart move! But you could always get him to get you a cheaper camera AND this coffee machine too – two gifts yo! Camera from hubby, coffee machine from lil Nikhil, hehe.
Ooo, had you bought this earlier, i couldve lugged some capsules back for you. How much did they cost you? Dolce Gusto = Sweet taste. You have good taste indeed.
Aww man!! I only thought about this about 2 months I ago I think! On average I paid RM28 per box (cost about 4 pounds in UK) of capsule which is pretty alright coz it’s the same price here. The girl flew in from UK, would have ended up paying more if I shipped it in!! If you were asking about the machine then after discount it was RM599. LOL thanks, the hubby is pretty happy with it.
Happy Birthday Anand!
Great gift by the way! I like the lights from within. Gonna check this out too. lol.
Thanks!
Haha yea took me a while to figure out what to buy him. Check it out at Harvey Norman and let me know if you got it, you will if you love coffee and I think you do
Just wishing u “Happy birthday” with lots of love.
Thanks Jessie! Hope you’re having a good CNY
I’d like to invite myself to your place for a cuppa!
what an awesome gift!!
Hahaha thanks, come come I got all kinds of coffee, take your pick
Hi, i’m thinking to have this Awesome Coffee Machine but my wife only take tea and chocolate drink only. May i know how you order or when you will order again the capsules from oversea ?
Hi Goh! Well so far I got someone who was coming back from UK to get it for me. And for the rest of my supplies I rely on family/friends who are travelling to the US/UK. Husband brought back some stock from Phillipines recently. You can’t get chai tea latte and chococino here – they are however damn yummy! I know of some personal shoppers, please do email me ya and I”ll give you the link. That said, have you considered the CBTL from Coffeebean? At least you can get tea!
Hi again Goh, btw I came across this article: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2012/5/9/metrobiz/11252879&sec=metrobiz
Looks like they have added chococino to the Malaysian market.
Just back from oversea and finally get the Nescafe Dolce Gusto Circolo RED for my wife. Can you share the shoppers link so i can order some capsules from oversea ? I’m the nespresso VIP member but they is different department, so cannot help order from singapore
too bad…….
You’re such a nice hubby Goh. Hope your wife is loving the machine. Btw I already saw the Cafe Lungo and Chococino in the supermarket the other day in KL. There’s also ice cappucino option now! But since you’re in Singapore, you can check out my friend’s personal shopper website, she’s living in the UK now, her rates are very affordable:

Or you can get this guy to help you, he’s from Singapore.

He does mostly beauty products spree but just ask if he can take orders for this since he does standalone spree as well. Not sure if it will be cheap.
