Avengers: Endgame

ABBEY: By this time all the spoilers were already out. We watched Avengers:Endgame in IMAX 3D and it was superb. 

I rooted for the Avengers to triumph over Thanos and they did but without casualties like Mr. Tony Stark for one. He was the one who wants to move on after he got the chance to come back to Earth. Maybe he had the “itch” after Antman’s pitch of time machine. Also I don’t know why after all the strength that Captain Marvel showed she got so weak just from a throw from Thanos. Where have all the power gone? 

Both Ironman and Black Widow wanted the event to be reversed and both of them didn’t see the fruits of their labor. At last Captain America got to marry the girl of his dreams. I thought he liked Bucky more than her. Haha. 

Maybe the lesson is don’t mess with time and just move on.

Avengers: Endgame

WILL: I did not like the fact that the EndGame story resorted to a time machine? What the! 

Time machine or going back to history to amend something really pisses me off. I am not sure if I expect too much or what. And the worst thing my favourite IronMan died!! Grrrr!

Worth watching? Yes! For the sake of closure of the series.

The Spa Wellness at TriNoma

ABBEY: With so much stress and pressure from our last apartment project, we booked for a massage at The Spa (Trinoma) for me, Wilma and Ate Sol. 

I chose Aromatherapy (lavender oil) Swedish massage. I washed before the session and had a cup of ginger tea. My masseur hit all the right spots that I want to feel relaxed and I even slept. It was so good when I heard my back crack as well as my neck. I felt I was more “aligned” after the massage. 

I had two more ginger tea and I’m done.

WILL: We put a lot of stress on my sister’s shoulders and for her to relax, Abbey and I went to The Spa for some muscle kneading! 

The Spa is one of somewhat a luxury spa in Manila. We booked at their TriNoma branch, Ate Sol and I requested for a deep tissue massage. 

Upon getting inside the place, you can feel its serenity. The shower area is clean and sad to say that the steamroom is not available that time. The locker is spacious but I find it quite unhygienic that I need to put my shoes together with my stuffs inside it. 

The massage did not satisfy me nor relax me. Why? The massage area is very-very cold! Even the masseuse turned off the AC it is still cold and stiffens my body even more! And I requested for deep tissue massage but Ms Joy seems to have no energy to knead my aching muscle. Huhu. 

Abbey and Ate Sol are totally satisfied with their massages. Well, maybe they have the good masseurs. Hmp! 

Worth to visit and experience. But be clear on how hard your massage will be.

Royal Palm Restaurant's Lunch Buffet @ Orchid Country Club

ABBEY: So much to be thankful for. That’s why we decided to catch up with our friends over lunch at Royal Palm @ Orchid Country Club.
They have Western, Indian, and Asian dishes.

They had me at tandoori chicken. I really love those specially with mint chutney, briyani rice, naan or pita bread.The chicken shawarma tasted a bit different as they put sweet-chili sauce on it.

I also liked their first batch of baked fish with tomato. They were crunchy and firm. Coffee, tea and softdrinks are in free flow. For dessert, you can have brownies, cheesecakes, kuehs and hot dessert. All of these are for SGD 24.90 per person when you purchase Fave.

WILL: We booked 2 restaurants but the price was hiked-up due to Easter celebration. I looked for a good deal, of course using FAVE, and I saw the Royal Palm International Cuisine located at Orchid Country Club. 

Exactly 12noon they opened their door. There is a live music and the singer go round to check-out the diners experience and what they are celebrating. Yes! It is my birthday and our anniversary celebration! Yey! 

How’s the food? If you love curries, you will like Royal Palm. I am delighted that they offer salmon head curry! It is a must to try! Oh! Dip the fried mantau on it’s sauce. Yumm!! Their kway teow has this chewy texture and a “restaurant” quality. Freshly cooked pita bread. 

The place is spendid, far from the stress of the city.
