You can look on this City of Chicago site, it shows who has had their licenses revoked and why. Elegant isn't on that list put Tropical and a few others are for prostitution and license violations.

Here is another link to the weekly hearing for violations. If you look through that list it looks like Elegant had a couple of hearings. Also there are a lot of other spas on the list that have had hearings or have hearings coming up. It appears that Uncle LEO has been quietly working hard and shutting the press out. And even worse it appears Chicago maybe spa less for awhile. Looks like the apartment business is going to be on the rise.

As others have mentioned, the place is kind of wierd, and there is no shower whatsoever. They get $70 at the door for 1/2 hour. You get a nice looking euro, black or latin girl in her bra and panties giving you a nice rubdown. Without any mention of money, my girl let me take off her bra and she want to work on Mr. Happy. I was fingering her over her panties during the HE. I gave her.30 and she seemed happy with that.

The girl I had (black, but don't remember her name) mentioned that she used to work at my favorite place ERS in Belevidere. It was fun to make that connection.

With a great first experience like that, I'll probably be back. I've know of this place for awhile, but had never previously stopped by. They are right downtown and on a pretty busy street. I assume LE knows what goes on at this place, but for some reason they apparently don't shut it down like they did with similar places that used to be in business over in DuPage county.

Thanks for this! I just posted a request for something besides AMP, but since I'm not senior yet, it's in queue. Time for some google maps action.

Anyone? Seems maybe TGTBT.

So I tried Tineye and saw the first pic of the 2 girls is stolen but not the second. In anycase, just wondering if there is an actuall Euro Spa that does extras. Some ones got to TOFTT on this one. I would but I'm spent for the week.

I haven't seen her but I've seen reviews scattered. All range from very good to below average. Maybe YMMV. The one consistent thing I've seen is that she looks a little older / weathered.

I have seen a report on her SOMEWHERE on the forums but can't find it for the life of me. Help? PM is fine if anyone wouldn't mind sharing what was on the menu.

[QUOTE=Hold Caulfield; 1076291]Was in the Windy City a couple of weeks back for a trade show. As was the case last year, I had no car so was looking for establishments close to Public transit. Had a reasonable massage and HS HE at Xindy last year so thought I'd try again. Same price, $45 for 1/2 hour with shower. But this time, absolutely NO Extras. Towel stayed in place the entire time. Gentle attempts to stroke provider's leg met with "no moving please. " Finally made very clear what I was looking for, and that a tip would be forthcoming, and answer was "massage only. "

So I let her finish the massage. Not bad, too much oil, but at least fair for the price. Glad I had asked for shower after the massage because of excess oil. Left with no tip. She didn't look like she was expecting one.

Since I was close to Chinatown I thought I'd try a couple of places that at least occasionally have been well reviewed on this board. Tried B&B on the main drag. Sign said open, but ringing the inner doorbell resulted in no response. It was a Sunday afternoon, so either they were all busy with no one to answer the door, or they left the sign on by mistake, or they didn't like the looks of me through the video.

So then to Oriental on second floor of mall. By this point I was running short on time and I had the bad luck to walk in just after a younger asian gentleman. He got the last available room. I asked PapaSan how long the wait would be, and he said 20 min to half hour. Calculating that I'd miss my bus back to the airport, I declined.

So, three establishments, total strikeout except for a fair but certainly unexceptional oil massage at Xindy.

BTW, Alice in the China mall is definitely closed, per previous posts. Door is locked up tight and it's clear construction is going on inside. Still has name on the window, but I suspect that won't be for long.

Clearly on my next trip I'll need to rent a car and travel further afield. Oh well.

Went and paid a visit to that certain spa that has been reviewed before. Consensus has always been that certain young asian named after very famous hurricane was very cute, did not ask for tip up front, but had very limited opinions available for finish. Went back to see if she learned any new tricks. Had a very nice massage as usual with standard ending but when asked her about new trick, she told me next time because she has a cold. I know this is a common trick to lure clients back, the promise of more, but I am wondering if she really ready to step it up because I stayed away so long. If anyone else has gotten more from this pretty lady, please pm me. I am thinking I will give her another chance.

**Chamber** · 10-11-10 20:26

Went to good ol' HKS the other evening. Once again, received a quality massage from a certain fun-loving masseuse. A borderline GFE, and all I had to do beyond the normal.40 was commit to getting the scalp massage from the "younger, prettier" girl upstairs. I finished up, and reluctantly trudged to the upstairs apartment. This was a fully legit scalp massage, shampoo, and mini-facial. The girl was in fact young, but there was NO chance of anything beyond the call of duty. So guys, if you think heading upstairs will yield you a round two, don't bite unless you're really in the mood for a post-massage spa day.

Name: Mandy, one of Gina's girls. Chinese Malay, weak English, 24 y. O, a bit of a beer belly but otherwise nice petite build: BBBJ, DATY, DFK, & really seems to enjoy what she does-even her attempt at a massage. HH = 1.2. Her last work day: this Friday, the 15th. Contact: do a search on backpage for Mandy Belmont. Please don't pm me for contact assistance-if you can't manage with this clue, you're clueless.

If you google {"237 w 26th" chicago massage} you find a lot of hearing schedules from the Chiago Dept of business affairs and consumer protection. They read like a who's who of massage joints. I can't find the minutes of these hearings on-line or any info about the complaint numbers but I'm assuming that this has been coming for a long time. The usual tactic is continue-continue-continue until the judge runs out of patience and closes the joint down, then it pops back up with a 'new' owner and the game of whack-a-mole starts all over again. This would seem to be the case here because several places that 'everyone knows' are affiliated are listed as having different owner. This reminds me a lot of what happens with ambulance companies and nursing homes in this area. The names all change, but the game remains the same (as do the players.

Went to Relax Asian Spa. A bit out of the way in Palos Heights.

Not to pick nits, but there is a specific forum for South Suburbs reports. There is a Relax in the city, also.

I'll be staying at one of the hotels near Midway in a couple of weeks and am looking for a massage place or outcall massage.

Thanks
