Urban Retreat SG: Best Reflexology and Massage Price Starts at S$25

ABBEY: What started as a plan for a simple foot massage quickly turned into an almost full-body refresh! We visited Urban Retreat SG, originally intending to pamper just our feet, but ended up adding a shoulder massage to the experience—and we’re so glad we did!

The foot massage began with us settling into oversized Lazyboy chairs, complete with a mechanical massager, all while relaxing in front of a large TV. After a soothing foot wash, the massage began. It was a bit intense at times, but the skilled masseuse knew exactly how to target those tight spots. With expert hands, he worked through every knot until the tension melted away.

Next, we were ushered to a cozy bed for the shoulder massage. I must admit, it felt a bit like a wrestling match at first! The pressure was firm, and I could barely catch my breath, but in the best way possible. I didn’t realize how much I needed it until I felt the relief afterward.

Overall, it was an incredibly refreshing experience, and we’ll definitely be booking another session soon.

Urban Retreat SG: Best Reflexology and Massage Price Starts at S$25

WILL: Recently, I experienced a severe allergic reaction, leaving my torso and thighs covered in itchy, water-filled bumps. This discomfort had been persisting for two weeks, making my entire body feel tight and sore. Given the sensitivity of my skin, I opted for a foot reflexology treatment, believing that the nerve endings in the feet are connected to various parts of the body, which could help relieve some of the tension.

We decided to visit the newly opened Urban Retreat SG located in the serene neighborhood of Old Airport Road. Initially, I went in for just a foot reflexology session, but the therapist suggested that my husband, Abbey, also try their combined foot and shoulder massage. Without hesitation, he agreed.

While the foot massage wasn’t as thorough as we’ve experienced elsewhere, the shoulder massage was exceptional! It provided immediate relief and felt like I had undergone a full-body treatment. The knots in my shoulders were released, and the tension melted away.

We highly recommend Urban Retreat SG for anyone seeking effective relaxation therapy. We’ll definitely be returning for future sessions.

🇸🇬Discover the Healing Touch Spa: Singapore's Premier Traditional Massage Spa

ABBEY: We are due for that much needed massage. And I’m not wrong as my masseuse told me that my back muscles were tight. We went to Healing Touch Spa and I got Guasha Orthoapaedic massage while Wilma had the bojin.

It was sometimes painful but mostly relieving. Lots of elbows to remove the knots. I felt like I’m a piece of dough getting kneaded. Then there was scraping with the wooden stick to improve circulation; from neck, torso and legs. I can say I can have this type of service but not too soon. My wife is surprised when she saw my bruises on my entire back. 

🇸🇬Discover the Healing Touch Spa: Singapore's Premier Traditional Massage Spa

WILL: Healing Touch Spa is a proudly Singaporean-owned chain of spas. They offer not only Western massages but also some of the best traditional massages, which are often seen only in TCM clinics.

Recently, Abbey allowed me to book a traditional massage for him for the first time. On that day, he had a Guasha treatment, and I experienced Bojin. The therapist focused on my spine, temples, and shoulders. It was indeed painful, but I endured it because I knew it was for my betterment! After the session, I felt that my muscles and veins had a good flow. Relaxing but had a hint of muscle pain. Haha! 

Well, let’s be real — Traditional Massage sometimes causes bruises like what happened to my husband, for me a bit sore on the next day, but it is a wonderfully fulfilling. 

I admit, this won't be my last traditional massage. Healing Touch has a new booking site that is very easy to use. Visit their branch at Upper Thomson Road they offer promotions.

Oscar Head Spa for Only $58 for 2 Hour Hair & Scalp Treatment Spa and No Hard Selling - With FREE Mini High Tea

ABBEY: Heard about head massage? How about head spa?

If not, “head” now to Oscar Head Spa.

I didn’t know it’s possible to get all these treatments for the head; massage, shampoo, deep cleaning, head spray and steam. Aside from those I got neck and shoulder massages, face and eye seaweed mask, and tummy and knee compress.

It was really relaxing and definitely you get a good nap during the session. After the treatments, we had high tea that includes cake, oreo, and fruits. I would like to commend Irene for giving great service. A bit pricey for non-promotional package but worth it.

Oscar Head Spa for Only $58 for 2 Hour Hair & Scalp Treatment Spa and No Hard Selling - With FREE Mini High Tea

WILL: We all know that massages are good for blood flow and it relaxes us right? So why not have a massage that is focusing on your head and scalp. Now, head and scalp massage is the new thing here in Singapore and I think, Oscars is one of the pioneers for it. 

Salons that offers this kind of service, why Oscars? Well, first they got me in to the white and gold combination of their place. It seems so clean, comforting and fancy. Second how well the reception handles my booking. We had irregular Facebook communication and still managed to book on my preferred slot. So how’s the treatment? First you need to face the truth about your scalp. They are not like the some salons that will use exaggerated words to create fear on you instead they use adjectives that will inspire you to take extra care of your scalp and hair.

In the room, the light will be dimmed and the total relaxation begins. I seldom get sleepy in any kinds of massages but I think I snoozed out for more than an hour. Haha! All I know is the masseuse keep on kneading my head gently.

Will I come back? We bought vouchers for our next visits. We are ready to be pampered on the followung months. Wohhhooo!

My Cozy Room - Singapore's Best Extraction Facial

ABBEY: Aside from giving ourselves a body massage we also booked for facial treatments. And I can say it is a great experience. After filling up a form for customer profile we were led to a room to get started. 

Beginning with cleansing then exfoliation with steam (A first for me. I didn’t know it can be combined). Then the main event; extraction. I expect they will “dig” a lot. Haha. After the pain came the high frequency to close the pores followed by cold light machine. This is where I was getting sleepy. Then the eye massage. My eye-bags really got “offloaded” and not that much puffed. After that is the face mask. I woke up by the time they took off the mask and apply the hydration syrum and sunblock. I also got a nice shoulder massage to get me going. 

The staff are not that pushy when offering their products and services which is a plus for me.

My Cozy Room - Singapore's Best Extraction Facial

WILL: It’s going 6 month from our last facial and Abbey is telling (not complaining haha!) that he can feel the white heads popping out from his nose. Since we are not satisfied on the facial cleaning of the last salon we visited, I googled the best deep facial cleaning and found good reviews of The Cozy Room.

We alighted at Somerset and you need to walk around 10minutes to reach their place. Upon arrival, we were asked to take a seat the usual routine of checking your skin and recommending a higher priced package for you to get. Well, we sticked to the Premium Pore Extraction with a 50% off on its original price of $288. 

The reviews were all TRUE! This is the most painless deep extraction that I experienced. I commend the specialist that she really has a light hand for extraction. Because you know, going through a facial is sometimes like you are going to a war. Haha.

Glad that we experienced this luxurious facial here in Singapore! Totally recommended if you have facial problems!

Han Dynasty - RELAXATION DAY IDEA IN SINGAPORE

ABBEY: After a year of hard work, vacation time is anticipated. What makes me excited is that we can relax and enjoy the time off and be ready for the next year. 

To pamper ourselves we went to Han Dynasty for a body massage. I can say that it was an amazing experience. The massage was so hard that I need to tell the masseuse to lessen the “power”. Hahaha. The aching muscles are gone and unwound. It was rejuvenating. Make sure to book an appointment. 

WILL: One of the best gift for a friend is to help them lessen their stress right? So Abbey give a gift of fully body massage to Chat last 2021. This time, we tried Han Dynasty Spa located at Thomson. 

Before the session the masseuse asked for our pain points and indeed they concentrated on that body part. The downside is too much focus on that body part that she didn’t have enough time to massage my limbs. 

The place is clean and you’ll feel that it was totally sanitised. Towels were soft and oil is not that sticky. Worth it to try!

Bioskin Singapore Facial Promotion | Is it a Ripped-Off?

ABBEY: Skin is the largest organ of our body. And we need to take care of that, specially our face. Make our body beautiful inside and out. We bought Bioskin package for 3 sessions each. It includes facial as well as massage. I’m new to the non-extraction procedure. This means no pricking but somehow you will feel your face clean. 

Lots of cleaning, lotion and cream. But I really liked bojin facial treatment. It is the massage for your face. Just like with other type of body massages, it will loosen up your muscles to make blood circulation better. It is a bit painful but relaxing and rejuvenating. I think that is the treatment I’ll come back to Bioskin for.

Bioskin Singapore Facial Promotion | Is it a Ripped-Off?

WILL: I got to know Bioskin facial through fave promotional deals. For only $26.75 I got to try their 1-Hour Skin Purifying Treatment in their newly opened branch at Midtown. 

Prescilla explains and really a persuasive salesperson so I got to buy a total of 6 sessions (3-each for me and Abbey) worth $856. 

Treatments: 

1. Plasma 

2. Dembrasion 

3. Bojin Detox 

Top-up for each facial: 

1. Ampoule 

2. Eye Treatment 

3. Scalp and Shoulder Massage 

How’s was it? Well, to tell you frankly, we just tried if our face will truely be clear with their non-extraction procedure. Well, maybe those kind of treatments are not for us because I still feel that my face specially the mask-covered area is still quite full of whiteheads/deadskin even after the treatment. The only remarkable is their Bojin Detox. You will totally feel the relief after the session. 

Will I come back? Yes, but only for Bojin.

Natureland Spa Premium at Marina Bay Sands

ABBEY: At last after almost two years, our bodies got themselves a massage from a premium spa Natureland (Marina Bay Sands). Have a reservation before you head there. The session was 30 minutes behind the schedule but we got a nice couple room. I told the masseuse not to be fooled by Wilma’s built and they can give her a hard massage. 

I enjoyed the neck cracking and “elbowing”. I felt my spine decompressed, my shoulders and calves relaxed. I was continuously asked if I’m OK, which I am. All the muscle stiffness is gone. I turned into a jelly. Haha. 

We were given ginger tea and water after the session. Definitely recommended!

Natureland Spa Premium at Marina Bay Sands

WILL: Natureland Spa branches are sprouting in many places in Singapore and one of their newest premier branch is at Marina Bay Sands. 

We booked 4PM and arrived on time but I am not sure what happened and our schedule was pushed to 440pm. Before 5PM we are already at one of their couple room and we were handed a disposable underwears. The room, the sheets are clean and pleasantly smells. We chose exotic oil aroma for our massage.

Abbey advised my masseur that I need a hard massage and it is the start of my new life! Haha! The masseur frantically kneaded my back, my shoulder and side of my ribcage. It is a total relief. This is one if the few spa that I will give a 5-Stars. Haha!

Definitely will comeback by April.

Pablo Blau - 60-minutes Signature Salt Room Customised Facial

ABBEY: Another pampering session. Now it is for my face. Pablo Blau is a unique experience. They have this what they called Salt Room (salt everywhere from floor to the walls). They say this will help you detoxify upon inhaling the air in the room. Even the floor on facial room is covered with salt. 

I can say my face got a really nice massage during the session and all the blackheads got rid off. After the cleaning process comes the moisturizing part. I think I got three layers of different cream applications and my face really glowed. Yey! I got more gwapo after that.

WILL: It’s been a year! A year of not having a good and satisfying facial! OMG! Glad I have bumped into Pablo Blau’s 60minute Customised Facial worth only $69.

There’s some conflict on booking but it was immediately resolved. Instead of 2PM we were rebooked by 11am same day. No fuss! Just went there to receive our face pampering.

Once you stepped in at Pablo Blau you will immediately feel the superbly relaxing ambiance of the place given by the cobalt blue color. Match up that blau (blue) with gold, it will give you a luxury atmosphere. Siggghh of relief.

Pablo Blau is unique. This is the only spa that you need to take of your shoes and change it to disposables. Why? Their treatment room is filled with salt. Yes! Salt! You will step in salt and their walls are covered with, of course, salt. Unique right? We all know that salt is used in many different ways since ancient times and Pablo Blau is harnessing that power for their services.

So how’s the facial experience? The therapist without hesitation lavishly put creams after creams and massage my face thoroughly. She pricked some of my white/blackhead using ultrasonic shovel and acne extractor. After the session, I really do feel the plump of my facial skin and my somewhat burnt forehead's dead skin got peeled off. They are correct! In just one session you will see and feel the difference.

The therapist is quite talkative. It is okay that she explains the products but she is talking about her life during the session. Whew! And she is pretty pushy. The facial treatment and the unique experience at the salt room is two thumbs up. I immediately recommended this to my friends to try.

Liang Yi Foot Reflex - The Good TCM Healers

ABBEY: I got sick on the month of June and the first question the doctor asked me is “Are you stressed?”. Whoa! That escalated quickly. So to help me with my predicament, we went back to the basics; veggie diet, lemon-cayenne concoction on an empty stomach, vitamin C overdose and a massage.

We went to Liang Yi (Selatar Mall) for an hour of foot reflexology. Good thing there are no available seats so I got my massage laid down. The foot reflex made me relaxed and I enjoyed the session. Right points were hit and some of them I was not aware needed “kneading”. I’m satisfied with the service and will recommend to my friends.

Liang Yi Foot Reflex - The Good TCM Healers

WILL: Abbey is in process of curing his rashes and we are taking every opportunity that might help or expedite the healing. He overdosed himself with Vitamin C through fruits, he took enough and long sleeps and breathed in fresh oxygen from parks. Last thing to accomplish is relaxation through foot reflex. 

I know that you already have the knowledge about how you can stimulate internal organs by pressing those points. So on that, we booked a foot reflexology at Ling Yi’s Seletar Mall branch via Fave. It only cost us $29.00. 

We were guided to go into a room and we laid on the massage table for a reflex. They gave two hot compressed pillow that caused my neck and lower back to relax. The place is clean and no bad odours can be smelled. The people is not pushy to buy their package. 

So how’s the massage? I am shocked that there are points that seems never been kneaded before. It is so unbelievably relax my body.

Chinese Medical Centre - 1-Hour Full Body TCM Massage under FAVE

ABBEY: Wilma is having back pain and this time we opted to go for a Traditional Chinese Medicine massage. We went to Chinese Medical Centre for an hour of full body masaage. 

Our schedule is at 6PM but got delayed for 20 minutes. It’s worth the wait. The masseuse's hands ate heavy and really relieved my muscles from tension. I was kneaded with elbows amd knuckles. It’s painful but good. Ready to tackle the week ahead.

Chinese Medical Centre - Punggol Plaza Branch

WILL: I went back here in Singapore with a severe backpain (left area). I know, I know. Why I went back without seeing a masseuse in Manila. I ran out of time, huhu. Tell you..I know this is not an ordinary pain. All I know is I want to see a Chinese Doctor. Hahaha. 

Another hurdle aside from time, Abbey's insurance is not yet out and I do not want to pay enormous amount, so who I gonna call? FAVVVEEEE! HELP!!! Haha! 

Saw an hour of TCM Massage at Chinese Medical Centre and they have a branch at Punggol Plaza! Nice! Bought and booked immediately! 

How's the massage? Totally different! It feels like every strand of my muscle was kneaded. And the masseuse always asked and caught me lying. Hahaha! All I care about is my left upperback but she found and I realized that there's some distressed part of my body too! I asked her if she can give me acupuncture, but she resisted and advised me to have a cupping instead. 

I am agitated to that process. Why? I can't breathe whenever the cup was placed on my skin. As it is sucks all the oxygen in me. Haha. But I need to bare that anxiety. So I relaxed myself by breathing in and out. And on many attempts on that, I finally quiet my brain and make it understand that this is for my sake. 

After 10mins she blurted out. "Oh my! So black! Is this your first time?" Imagine? She described my back "black" in color. 

After, the session, I felt so tired. Haha. It seems someone beat me! At home, there is no position for me to be comfortable. Seriously, how can I get a sleep? But maybe because inside, my body is doing a repair. I drifted off. 

The next day, I felt better and the cracking sound at my left upper back and arm is lesser. 

I will come back for another TCM once Abbey and I already have our ID for our insurance. 🤗

Thanks FAVE for relieving my "stingy" anxiety and Chinese Medical Centre for alleviating the backpain!

Ina Spa (In front of BHG Bugis)

ABBEY: I thought this was one of our usual massage session but I was wrong. Ina Spa is one of the shops at the busy place of Bugis. We made a reservation at 6:30PM. Unfortunately, we were half an hour early and we were asked to pass some time first as there is no available masseurs yet. We came back at exactly the appointed time but was told if we can have it the earliest at 9PM which really set my mad mood on. Sensing that we will not give in for any other day or a very late time, we got a slot at 8. 

Just want to finish the long day, I sat down on the massage chair. The masseur washed my feet. The session includes a back massage as well. My tensed muscles started to loosen. Few minutes later, I was relaxed. And when the foot massage began, it was all worth the wait. 

Fang Fang made my feet numb. Haha. I can't feel them after the session. I feel like like I'm floating. This is recommended. I hope they can have more masseur so they can accommodate more customers. 

Book a session with Fang Fang!

Ina Spa's Cozy Seat

WILL: Didn't we deserve a foot massage after a 10km marathon of Standard Chartered? Actually even if we don't ran on that tracks, I am still targeting to have it. Its been a while since our last foot reflex session. Haha. 

I am searching on Vaniday for a deal but nothing beats Groupon in offering this kind of services in massive discounts. So, still, I went for Groupon and found this newly opened spa just in front of Bugis BHG. We got a 60-minute foot reflex + 10-minute back massage (S$22.00). 

My masseur assigned to me is pretty aggressive,  the more I crouch while she is kneading my shoulders, the more she is in total offence to get rid of my tight muscles. Haha. Oh! She is doing that while my feet was soaked on a lukewarm water. 

She dried up my feet and started for the foot massage. I want to scream whenever she hit a point that is quite painful. She concentrated more on my legs and not on my foot (I am wondering why). 

Oh, please make sure to be there on time, not too early because they do not have a waiting room for you to occupy and not that late because the other sessions next to you was affected too. 

Will I be back again for another massage in Ina Spa? Yessss! But I will be requesting for Fang-Fang. :) 

Thanks Groupon and Ina Spa!

Centella Classic Facial by Spa Symphony (313@Somerset)

ABBEY: Facial spa session to me is a painful way being good looking :) Whenever we booked an appointment, I'm hoping it will be cancelled. Haha. It is just that my pain tolerance is low. That's why I wondered where did the pain go when we had one at Spa Symphony (313 Somerset). 

After laying down, cleansing cream and scrub were put on my face. Next is the steam. Then the pricking began. The staff told me that it will be painful, but to my amazement, it's not the same "ouch" level compared in the Philippines. This is good news for me. After pricking, face massage started. The cream put on me smells good and citrus. 

Then the "heavy", cold mask was applied. I slept until the mask hardened. The song on my mind after the mask was removed is "I can't feel my face when I'm with you". Haha. My face felt very light. It is as if I became teenager again. 

Thanks Spa Symphony.

Centella Classic Facial by Spa Symphony (313@Somerset Singapore) 

WILL: It was supposed to be facial before our Maldives vacation but Abbey is afraid that the sun may irritate his skin. Then, we opted to avail our package after sun-kissing. Spa Symphony is pretty helpful in looking for perfect schedule that will suit us. Thanks again for the assistance.

On that Friday night, I am surprised on how they do their facial. 

The room is 'snowy-cold' but they gave us bed with warmer. Whoah! Instance relaxation! The session begun when they put a cold cream on my face, wipe it off, exfoliation, then cream again, then wiping it off again. She put a cold cotton on my eyes and aim the steamer on to my face. 

After few minutes, she started to 'deep' clean my face. As usual, she didn't get too many impurities. Fanny was so amazed to know that I do not use anything on my face for past 2 years. Yep! Even cleanser or facial wash. 

After that 'cleaning', she started to massage my face. Yes! Massage! I will not forget that event. For almost half an hour, she is kneading my forehead, cheeks, chin, nose and even the eyes. Relaxation at its finest. Her fingers seems dancing on my face! Haha! 

She wiped off the cream then put a mask and again a small cold cloth just to protect my eyelashes. Fanny put on cream and shockingly put some on the eye area too, 3points-ahhh moment. After few minutes, you can feel that the cream is already hard and I felt sad because I know it will be the end of our session. 

I always wait to visit Manila just to get the cleansing facial I want to achieve and yet after my 6th year here in Singapore, I finally saw what I am looking for. Ahmm, actually it exceeds my criteria. 

Thanks to all the staff of Spa Symphony for this memorable facial/massage you have rendered to me and husband. 

This Centella Facial costs only $60 each.

Damai Spa - Grand Hyatt Singapore

ABBEY: From time to time we need to unwind and get relaxed. So as part of our company's insurance we can avail wellness benefits which include spas. We booked at Damai in Grand Hyatt Singapore. We were given coconut juice before the session and a couple of minutes later we were ushered to our respective rooms. After telling me where to put my things, I took a shower. They have "Japan toilet". The one where the sit is warm and has high-end bidet system with only a push of a button.

The masseur is waiting for me to wash my feet and give them pre-massage. I was also asked what oil they should use. I picked the healing one as it smells relaxing and refreshing. And yes most of the session I'm asleep. The pressure is medium and it is ok for me, not a fan of hard massage. What I liked the most is the foot massage. They were aching before the massage, but after I felt like I'm walking on cushions.

The session ended with a cup of ginger tea so good that we asked for more. The next batch came in a teapot. :)

WILL: If you will search In the internet "Best Spas in Singapore" Damai Spa is always included. For my husband's birthday month, we got to check this out. Haha! 

I booked for a 75-minute Classic Swedish Massage for $234.00 each person. Expensive? Yes it is. This is under Abbey's insurance benefits so we do not worry too much about the price. Thanks AETNA! 

So when we entered the magnificent all wood reception we were immediately assisted to seat, gave us a freezing cold glass of coconut water and we waited for our masseurs. When they approached us, they guided us to our rooms. Gosh! The room is so huge and fancy. Ohh! I love their heated bowl seat. It is relaxing.

In bathrobe, I was welcomed with their foot bath and asked me what oil I want for massage. The massage starts. I requested for more pressure..of course and Ying's (my masseur's name) hand is like dancing on my back...then I fell on slumber. She got me back to reality when she asked me to lie on my back. :) 

Well, the massage is well done. But I regret that I do not have a chance to try their facilities because of our lack of time. 

When we were at reception I asked for a pot of their hot ginger tea. They gladly gave us a pot and 2 teacup. Love to stay in that relaxing place but we need to go for some errands. 

Till next time Damai Spa of Grand Hyatt Hotel.

g.Spa Fitness and Recreation Hub - Spas/Beauty/Personal Care

ABBEY: Another freebie? Wow, yes please. Keep them coming. You are all welcome. Thanks Medhatter. This time I got a 60-minute full body massage worth 155SGD at g.Spa. It is located at 102 Guillemard road. We took MRT and alight at Mountbatten station. 

I strongly advise that don't be fooled by their signage outside the building. They have more to offer aside from that. And what I mean by more is that they have good receptionist that will welcome you and ask for your need of service upon arrival. We were an hour late but still it only took us 15 minutes waiting time to have the massage. 

The style of spa is like Wensha in Philippines, but more at par than Wensha.

You will be given a magnetic key for your locker and massage clothes. My masseur's name is Susan. She gave my muscles a "beating". I think I heard all the "crunchiness" left my body. I like the hand and feet massage the most. It is as if all the tired muscles got relaxed. After the massage, I proceeded to the dining area.

I first took a sip of wintermelon and pork rib soup. Next I got their menu for the day; chicken cutlet. It came with fries and coleslaw. I also took a bite of their dimsums even though they have shrimps. They were delicious. Wash them all with free flow of juice, coffee, or tea. 

Total spa indulgence. Highly recommendable.

WILL: "Therefore, do not be deceived." That is the perfect tagline for gSpa. Or better "Do not judge the book by its cover" haha!

Abbey won a one (1) spa treatment from Medhatters and he threatens me not to redeem it if I will not come with him. Even it is a 24hour spa, we still made a booking 3 weeks before our targeted date. 

A very unique foyer welcomed us. Three lovely ladies behind the concierge immediately accommodated us. Less than 10minutes we are both on our way to the spa rooms. 

Because Abbey really pushed me to go with him, I look for ways to lessen the cost of this pampering session. AspirantSG threw a 15% off and free body scrub to his blog readers and I am too lucky to be one of first 10 reservation. 

I requested for body scrub first before the massage. This is a trivia about myself. This is my only third time to have a body scrub in a spa. Why? I found it too expensive, my good reason. So, I just buy a sea salt scrub over the counter and do it for myself. Haha. Ok, back to the review. Xiao Rui mastered her craft. It seems that I am her baby that really need a deep cleaning. She kneaded and cleansed me by the strokes of her hand. I really hoped that time will never end. 

Xiao Hui is the assigned masseur to me. That is the first time in my whole life that I have a hard massage. Her hand, knuckles and elbows know the exact point where my body aches. She stretched my body that unbelievably gave a cracking sound which I felt a kind of relief. When she told me that my session was done, I frowned. I want more haha!!! It is very relaxing.

2 hours of pampering, I am ready for filling up my tummy. Yep at a $155 package, it includes a buffet. Hey it is not an international buffet but in their menu for sure some of the food will satisfy your taste buds. What I love the most is their dim sums. I ate 8 servings of those. 

There is also a rest area that you can seat on their couches watch movies, tv shows or just sleep. 

It is really a wonderful experience. We already told our friends how good it is and they ensure us that they will try the service in there. :)
