A Relaxing Evening

Last week, i told hubby that i wanted to have a body massage probably at the ground floor of Cityland-Shaw tower. I just felt so tired and I wanted to relax. He said that we will just go together at Wensha. I've heard and read only good things about Wensha so I was really excited. Saturday came, we were so busy the whole day because we scoured Manila particularly Paco and Pier 15 for japanese surplus aircons and other things needed at the house.


Anyway, i thought he already forgot about his promise of us having a massage together because it was already evening plus it was raining. I would not blame him if our massage appointment will not push through because we were really so busy. But he did not forget(thanks Dy!) and we had our massage only it was not at Wensha but at Asian Massage in Malate.


We went there half-past nine pm and we had our massage at exactly 10pm. They allow couples to have a massage together so that's one thing I like about the place. The ambience was really relaxing except for the occasional conversation of our therapists. They are open 24-hours and even do home service. Except for us, most of their clients that time were foreigners. I forgot to ask about the oil they used but I also liked the scent. What I didn't like was i can occasionally feel the nails of my therapist on my skin. Apart from that, I would say Asian Massage is a good place to go to for your spa needs. Clean and the rates are i think reasonable. Hubby slept during the massage and i'm glad because I know how stressed he is although he does not say anything about it like i do. I would definitely recommend this place to friends.

Since i felt hungry, we stopped by for some take-out at Mc Donalds. We went home around midnight and the kids were already asleep. Hubby slept immediately while i wrote yet one article. That is one productive and relaxing saturday...

Roadstop: Keisha's Grill

On our way towards Pagudpud, we stopped for dinner at Keisha's Grill at Total, Nlex.
We had some baon and their staff very kindly accomodated our requests to reheat our "baon". They ordered seafoods which i didn't really taste because i was so full already.

We also meet up with some friends of hubby from Nueva Ecija. The photos were taken from my Samsung sg7333 so the pics are not that good but at other times, my trusted phone delivers the goods just as well as any other camera.

The kids were really sleepy plus they've already eaten dinner back before leaving home so all they really want is to sleep.

Saddest Clown

When we went to the baptismal reception of hubby's friend in the basement of imarflex building, we were also able to visit their imarflex display room. We were looking at airconditioning unit for the guest room. Anyway, they had other things on display there that had no bearing whatsoever with Imarflex as a company. One of the things I saw on display there was this clown which was on sale for P800. I would have wanted to buy it but the mechanism that makes the dog jump is already broken so i didn't. But I really would have wanted to buy it except that it seems too expensive for a thing that does not work anymore.


Normally clowns are pictured as having happy faces but this one is just so sad. The artist is very talented at portraying the emotion so many clowns try to hide. There are times when no matter how hard we try to hide it, true feelings are manifested in our faces and in our actions.

Martin's Cuisine

We have just discovered a new restaturant(it's actually an old establishment) that offers tropical chinese dishes. Hubby was invited as godfather by his friend. Parking is difficult but food is delicious. It has the ambience of a typical chinese restaurant catering to the middle class.

It is not advertised. It is not easy to locate since the restaurant is located in the basement. But they are great for take-outs. And the service crews are polite.

However, if you do have the chance to be in Gil Puyat and Tramo st., you might just want to give this resto a try.
