Euphoria@Sunway Lagoon Resort

Euphoria By Ministry of Sound has finally come to Malaysia and the best thing is.. Its at Sunway Lagoon Resort. Ministry of Sound is a London based club and has opened in countries like Egypt and Singapore. Everyone has been anticipating the opening of M.o.S in Malaysia as soon as news came out that they are coming to Malaysia. And finally, on the 2th of July 2008 it has finally opened its doors to Malaysia.

I received an complimentary pass through an email asking me to register myself on the guest list (which I did) and I had to be there by 11p.m to get in for FREE. It was for the preview party which is held on the 27 and 28th of June. I went on the 27th.

The complimentary pass

As you can see on the pass, they say that you have to be 21 and above to get in. So you must be wondering how I got in. Its simple. Bring a group of people 21 years and above and they'll let you in :)

Before the opening, everyone was talking about how this club is going to be the best club in Malaysia in terms of the design and everything. Well, to be honest it was OKAY but if you compare to other clubs like Maison or Rumms, Euphoria is much better. It's interior design is nice. Very classy. Decorations is great. Custom made chairs and tables. Cozy sofa and pillows. Carpeted floors. Ambient lighting. Five-star hotel looking toilets. Running-water wall decos. Glass-floor bridge (please don't go there if you're DRUNK or you're wearing a SKIRT ladies).

Another thing is that (I don't know if its good or bad) Euphoria is a non-smoking club ! You can only smoke outdoors at The Deq but not indoors. Well, actually you could smoke indoors but you have to go to a room called the Designated Smoking Area (DSA). So basically, you get proper ventilation in the club and girls won't complain that their hair smell like smoke when they go home.

The music is great. They don't just keep playing R&B Hip-hop the entire night. They mix it with dance beats that makes you get up from your seat and onto the dance floor. You can't get this kind of music anywhere else. Speaking of the dance floor. Its awesome. 2 dance floors. If you think the dance floor at Rumms was big. Try the Euphoria dance floors. Its wooden and it vibrates to the best of the music.

Everything I said about the club is basically good but there are also some bad parts about it. For instance, the security check at the entrance. Makes you feel like you're in an airport. Why? Simple. Metal detectors. You have to surrender your belongings at the entrace for check up and then you have to walk through the metal detectors and if it beeps then you will have a body check up. Second thing is the price. You have to pay an extra RM100 more to open a bottle of whiskey here. In Maison, you may open a bottle for RM300 but here in M.o.S you open one for RM400.

Anyhow, its always good to have an experience of this club. Its great but I think I will come back here in a year time. I'll be back after in 21. For now, I'll stick to clubs like The Loft and Poppy.
