Did anyone go to either spa over the weekend? I tried calling the 3 different numbers I have and they wall went to voicemail. I called 3 times each day morning, early afternoon and evening. Sometimes Vivian from Merry spa will call me back. But not this weekend. I hope they do not get busted.
PP.
While the wife is away for 2 weeks with our little one and showing off her new baby bump to everyone she can back home I had some free time Sunday afternoon so I decided to take my bike out for a long ride. I ended up in Elmhurst on York Rd where I saw a sign for an AMP in a medical arts building. I passed back by it again and decided to give it a try mostly for a legit massage. It's been a while since I have been in an AMP but decided to do it anyway.
I parked my bike, went inside and downstairs where a nice mid 30's girl named Lisa greeted me. She spoke zero English and pointed to a menu and I pointed to 1 hour for 55. She motions for me to get undressed and lay down and then proceeds to empty a bottle of oil on my back and legs which I hate. She towels some off but it was still way too much. She starts her massage which was actually pretty good and after turning over motions for a HE which I declined. She looked un-happy but at that point I didn't care because now the oil was even in my hair. After 40 minutes I motioned I had to go when she again offers a HE and more but I just wanted to get out of there. Left her a 20 for a tip and she smiled.

In all of the years I've read the reviews that's probably the first time I can remember someone turning down a typical ending. Not ripping on you- just was surprised. Good for you! If you don't want it, for whatever reason- looks, cost, etc. Stick to your guns.
I can understand the request for legit. Now that I'm "married" to "L", I've learned that everybody knows everybody. It's incredible. Many are from similar home towns. Turns out "L" is from the same town in China that the woman in Walmart vision department. "L" was hassling me the other day, some woman told her I was a "bad" man and got "bad" massages. She forgave me, but I have no idea who she talked to or what particular escapade was told to her. My point is everybody gossips. Bob.

I was really just looking for a nice relaxing peaceful massage however when she went overboard with the oil and even got it in my hair I decided it was over. She didn't seem very experienced anyway so I figured that anything further wouldn't be that great anyway. But I did give her a tip for an average to good massage.

They know everybody even if they say they don't.
Whenever I've hung out in one of the hostels, they all talk and give me "the look". "L" says everyone in Chinatown knows me. Bob.

[QUOTE=SamSinger;2940382]Funny to realize this now. I was at the Dollar Tree next door with a friend. While the friend was inside, I walked outside to scope out the AMP. It has a bit of a sophisticated ambiance. Did not realize I could have had some fun. I should make another trip there and check Linda out. $80 is right at my 'what the heck, let me give it a shot' range.[/QUOTE]I have been to Sun quite a few times when I have been out that way. Every time I was treated nice, always received an above average massage and left happy. You could certainly do worse.
Someday I will repeat.

Time I was there not very relaxing. Maybe he was the owner. Will not repeat too bad because it is close to work and I go at lunch.
Its hard to relax when someone is talking. I've seen several Chinese men hanging out there in the past.

My last post didn't go through, probably screwed up something, anyway. Had a very nice visit with cici. Great table shower, great soft massage. On the flip, CBJ, cfs, light kissing. She had the most perfect little rear end. She spoke very good English an was a very nice girl. This by far my best experience here since the old crew. $1. 8 door fee an tip included, will 100% repeat. I may be a waste of a thread, but it would be funny to hear some of the crazy stories from the old crew at this place. I remember standing in that room, Elvis playing on the radio, and I look and I have 3 girls with their legs up on the table waiting for me, I think that was the closest to heaven I have ever been.
