Ramadan’s barely started but some of us are already preparing for Syawal, the month of Eid, with thoughts of buying kuehs, baju raya, and home decorations filling our heads as we go about fasting. And while the Geylang Bazaar is home to these and more, its dense labyrinth-like structure might be a tad overwhelming for some.
Enter OneKM. Located just across the bazaar, the mall is home to a myriad of stores serving up deals, home decorations, and dishes so you can be Raya-ready from a convenient and comfy location. From beautiful home decorations to delicious halal restaurants, we’ve sussed out 6 reasons to head to OneKM for your Hari Raya preparations.
Once Hari Raya arrives, expect your house to be a revolving door of guests as relatives and friends flock to your abode. To make them feel as welcome as possible, spruce up your home with floral arrangements and decorations from the mall’s range of furnishing outlets like Harvey Norman, Chin Giap Soon and a florist cluster at Level 3, spanning over 11,000 square feet.
It’s flowers over boys at OneKM as there’s an entire section dedicated to just florists where you can bag deals on beautiful flowers such as:
Nothing says Hari Raya better than going green with your decorations, so head to party supplies store Chin Giap Soon for a wide selection of affordable, Eid-approved trinkets like plastic ketupats (from 75 cents), mini-banners ($2) and many others for your party needs.
We may not wanna admit it but most of us, low-key, look forward to receiving compliments on how great we look during Raya-visiting.
To stock up on your ammo, take advantage of the slew of wellness stores at OneKM like Bionn, where you can get 2 Skin Detox Booster sessions for just $68, and Zen Beauty, where you can get a package of 3 out of these 4 treatments for just $38:
For an added effect, top off your look with beauty products like Note’s halal-certified Sunglow Foundation and Terracotta Powder set ($59) which retains moisture and balances your skin’s oil levels so you won’t have a cakey look after moving about the entire day.
If you’re looking to smell fresh, even at your last house, you can’t go wrong with House of Fragrance & Skincare’s ck perfumes which are currently at 50% off!
For those who won’t be sticking with baju kurungs throughout the entire Raya celebrations, OneKM has a bevy of fashion stores so you can switch up your ensemble from traditional to smart-casual.
And nothing screams smart-casual louder than UNIQLO where you can score high quality-yet-affordable apparel like their Batik print shirt for just $29.90! Keep a lookout for their outlet here as they’ll be changing up their promotions every week during Ramadan.
To complete the look, head to Levi’s where you can finally buy their premium jeans at less-than-premium prices with their 1-for-1 deal that’s happening till the end of Ramadan.
Once you’ve snagged all the barang-barang needed for Raya, treat yourself to a well-deserved iftar session at one of the 15 halal restaurants in OneKM such as Kucina Italian Restaurant, PappaRich, and Penyet Town.
Muslims, who’ve always wanted to indulge in authentic Italian nosh but couldn’t due to all that babi (pork) and alkohol (alcohol), can finally go “Buon appetito” at Kucina Italian Restaurant. We highly recommend the 4 Formaggi Pizza ($24); a huge dish made with parmesan, mozzarella, ricotta and gorgonzola cheese which mesh well together without giving a jelak taste.
If you’re down for true-blue melayu, PappaRich has got your back this Ramadan with their iftar set meal where you can get a main course and house drink for just $12.90!
No Raya prep is complete without kebayas and kurungs and luckily, OneKM has an indoor AND outdoor bazaar where you can get traditional garbs and goods from great designer brands like Furby And Sugar, Nina Nugroho and Meccanism by Zaskia Mecca at affordable prices with baju kurung tops starting from just $30!
There’s also a smorgasbord of delicious kuehs like choco tarts and hazelnut cookies – all at just $22 a jar. You can also expect cool activities at the bazaar such as stage games and, on the weekends, meet-and-greet sessions with local and Malaysian celebrities like Dyn Norahim, Wahyu Rahman and more.
For a greater reason to splash the cash, you can redeem cool prizes* from now till 1st July 2018 depending on how much you spend at OneKM.
These include:
If you’re feeling lucky, just spend a minimum of $50 and try your hand at the UOL Festive Celebration Draw where the grand prize is a Jaguar E-PACE!
There’s also the SPH Shop & Win draw where all you need to do is spend $30 for a chance to win $280,000 worth of prizes like a Subaru Impreza 1.6i-s, a Nissan Pulsar 1.2L DIG-T, and more.
*Terms and conditions apply.
Instead of scouring through multiple venues across Singapore, be raya-ready at OneKM mall this Ramadan as the surfeit of retail outlets, from halal restaurants to bazaars, will fully prepare you for Eid at a one-stop, convenient location.
To up the convenience factor, OneKM also has a free shuttle bus service to and from places like Paya Lebar MRT station and Certis Cisco Centre so that you won’t have to lug your items far. For a greater reason to shop at the mall, you’ll be rewarded the more you spend, with amazing prizes like retail vouchers, jug sets, and 3 cars up for grabs!
