Royal Thai massage & Spa by Night dinner @ Heavenly Spa Westin Langkawi

I glanced at the many framed accolades of The Heavenly Spa at Westin Langkawi; “Best Luxury Resort Spa” in the 2014 World Luxury Spa Awards, “2011: Best 10 in Asia – Platinum Winner for HAPA Spa of the Year and HAPA Signature Spa Experience” and a few more as I sipped my warm tea and had my face sprayed with a pleasant rose scented mist as part of the welcome ritual.

Checking out cafes in Section 17, PJ : JEQ In The House

Now, when did I start to get interested in cafe hopping again?

Well, since I got tagged on that “says” article by my coffee-loving friends Ivy and Kevin, and though I was quick to disregard it (heck, don’t you agree that those damn clickbait articles are just annoying?), I thought a few was worth a visit after a quick glance through the list.

So last Saturday I hopped into Second Sunday at Damansara Jaya.
On Sunday, I was here at JEQ In The House.
Yes, admittedly all not far from my home and doesn’t involve any more than a 20 minutes drive; because running a few businesses simultaneously doesn’t leave you much time for traffic jams.

Pancakes at Second Sunday, Damansara Jaya – another cafe hopping weekend

I had lunch with a close friend late last week and we were on the topic of worthy-cafes-to-visit.
Other than Tray Cafe in Hartamas, which coincidentally where we were at, she mentioned The Porcupine Place and Second Sunday.

Now The Porcupine Place is at Puchong, so that’s out of the question.
Second Sunday however, was doable.

Samadhi Retreats : – Samadhi Food Festival – Tamarind Springs, Tamarind Hill, Neo Tamarind

There are not many of us who had dined at the Tamarind Group of restaurants; possibly due to the location, or some of us may not have heard of it or had wanted to sample the food but found it slightly over the budget.

Well, I share your sentiments.
I’ve been to Tamarind Springs once, just because a friend of mine wanted to check out the location for a function, and loved the setting of the place.
For Neo Tamarind and Tamarind Hill, I was there for an event, long time ago.

Recommended: Vision Space Optometrist @ Uptown, SS2, Giza for professional eye check

It was mid 2010 that I first met Mr Woon and Mr Aw in Vision Space Optometrist, Uptown Damansara.

Back then I had the most comprehensive eye-check ever, involving sophisticated equipment like Slit Lamp, Keratometer, Tonometer and Fundus Camera, Ophthalmoscope & Retinoscope.
At the end of it, any potential issue I may have with my eyes are thoroughly checked and filed for future reference.
