When we say Orchard MRT, where would you normally wait? Underground near the ticketing counter, near the the Control Station after u tap ur card right?! Well not for Zubair though. I asked where is he? Upstairs or downstairs? he said, "downstairs" but i cldt find him! Do you know where he waited for me? Up on the streets, after you ride up the freaking escalator!! I told him, "THIS IS NOT MRT! Down there is MRT!!!"
Then he said "ok ok dont spoil the mood, ok? Oh yeah i almost forgot to say this because u already started "this is not mrt"... You look beautiful. Matching lipstick and complexion... " and everything was forgiven... :D hahaha well it did make me feel a bit guilty... But then this is NOT his 1st time. It's his 2nd time!
So.. True Spa is located at Level 16, Tower A of Takashimaya. We had our complimentary Foot spa. Silly of me to wishfully think that they would include some kind of pedicure or at least buff my rough heels!- Firstly we soaked our feet in warm water for about 10min. We were seated on a massaging chair.
- Then they put oil and massaged our feet. I felt ticklish when touched at the balls of my feet then i didnt get properly massaged.
- Finally we got waxed with some of the HOTTEST LIQUID IN THE WORLD and then wrapped! i swear i cld have screamed loudly if i didnt control myself. but at least the massuese, if u can call her that, warned us ahead of time.
- After another 10min, they peeled it off and that was it.
I was a bit disappointed that that was all but hey... IT's free!!! x2!! What can you expect?
Then we went thru some sales talk. Out of curiosity i asked how much is their dark ring and slimming treatment.
- 6sessions of Laser and microdermabrasion on the eye each cost $2000+
- 8 weeks of Smartlipo (yup some kind of advanced laser liposuction), Lymphatic massage, Yoga, personal fitness instructor and whatever else is at $8800!!! Or $245/mth for 36mth but u hafta have credit card for that. but it's Money Back GUARANTEED. OK ok i've heard of such sales gimmick where they're not afraid to offer money back guarantee bcos the customer would be too sad / embarassed / low self esteemed after NOT achieving the target, they wldnt bother to ask for refund. But still, the tot is nice.
- They have Couple Room spa. Where if u buy the massage ala carte its $158 per person. But u can buy a package of 12 massages, 6 foot spas and 6 hydro baths at $1058.
While the place is nice and everything... I'd rather go to Batam or Malaysia to get these kinda spa treatments. Sorry Spore. You are just too freaking expensive.

Earlier, i asked Kak Long where can we get cheap indian food but she has no idea. Luckily, we went to Lucky Plaza to buy something and stumbled upon:
LUCKY PRATA!!!
At last! my craving for Paper Thosai is fulfilled! I kept asking to go to my favourite Indian fast food "Komalas" but Zubair didnt like it bcos its vegetarian. But Lucky Prata is just the thing for us!
Zubair with his Tuna cheese Murtabak $7
Me and my beloved paper Thosai $2.50
After that, we just walked along Orchard Road. Then we sat at this water fountain, pple watching and camera whoring. Visit my multiply to see more pictures
and Hey! We saw the Golden Man! HAHAH This time he moves when pple take picture of him or whatever... he would take a bow and wave. I didnt anything this time.
Other buskers around were some South American Latin Music Band. there weren't playing when we sat down in front of them but were playing from their album and it sounded nice. just music. Im sure Ayah wld love to have that album but alas...
AFter that we loitered in front of Takashimaya again and caught the last performance of the Lion Dance competition. It took some 10min to set up but we awed by their leaps and jumps afterward. I didnt take any photo cos didnt get a good view.
We reached home at 11pm! I hope he's happy i go out with him till late. hehe
