Spa Castle 2009

It was hubby’s birthday last Wednesday. I took him to Spa Castle for a treat. It's just 25 minutes away from home. We figure that there are so many places in NYC that we haven't explore, so we are not going away this summer.
I give them 4 stars out of 5 because the food are a little too expensive. I think it should be more reasonable. And I think they are quite cheap to offer just one set of uniform which will easily get wet, you have to wear it when you are not in the pool. Nevertheless, the service are great and the idea of hassle free for everything is a plus, you don’t need to bring anything with you around, just pay for the services, food and drink with the watch they gave which will also open your locker. Smart!
More importantly, it is very well kept and VERY CLEAN.

When you are inside the building, everyone has to take off their shoes and walk around barefoot just like we’re at home.

They have Jacuzzi, hot tub, ginseng pool, jasmine pool, kiddies pool, aqua bar (where you order drinks and sit in it), hinoki bath…and others. There are many different types of sauna for example, jade sauna, salt sauna, LED sauna, music sauna….etc.

There's sleeping area where you can take a nap after the sauna and hot bath. Definitely feel sleepy after the massage. Our first private room massage. We have 2 Korean masseurs who speak Chinese. It surprised us, they are not convince I’m Malaysian, they said I look like Korean… The experience with the massage? so so…not as great as we expected.

Smart idea too for them to charge more on weekend so it won’t get too crowded, so for those who can at least take a day off or go after work is better. USD35 for weekday and USD45 for weekend, you can stay as long as you like, it open from 6 am to midnight.

By the way, not a place for people who feel uneasy being naked around other people. You have to take off everything in the shower area and pool area inside the locker room, of course, only ladies in this area.

Purple Jewel

I have to claim that this is one of the most delicious healthy food I ever have which does not require a chef , seasonings, whatsoever.
This purple yam/sweet potato is just purely yummy!!! The kind of sweetness it has is beyond description. Another gift from Mother Nature, thank you. It’s just pure bliss to enjoy this little “natural energy bar”. Hubby and I love it so much we have to have it almost everyday for our breakfast. I think this is now its season because we usually don’t see it all year round. Or maybe they will have it from now on, hopefully.

One of my favorite at Gloria’s Sticker

This is one of the many interesting stickers that I really like at Gloria’s Sticker, the multipurpose sticker with many different icons you can choose from plus the choices of different fonts. It looks even nicer in person. A glossy silver metallic look. Versatile, elegant and personal.
