Sunday R&R

Last sunday, I had brunch with 2 of my good friends from our volleyball group. We ate at Kabb located in Xintiandi. Aside from being a hangout for queers on a sunday, it's pretty much known also for their inexpensive prices and generous servings. After eating, we then went window-shopping at the mall nearby and I ended up buying (finally!) a portable heater and a vaccum cleaner. Then we kinda felt the heat inside the mall since we were wearing 5 layers of clothing so I decided to take them to Changle Lu, a street with a number of small boutiques where I would like to go to for shopping for clothes.

I believe a couple more shops have opened ever since my last visit to the area. I guess there's a rapid invasion of boutiques and theyr'e trying to take over the whole stretch of the road. I love it!

Later that afternoon, we decided to book ourselves for an hour and a half session of foot massage at 8pm. Two more friends joined us for the massage and for dinner. Yes, the session comes with dinner and you get to order as much as you want. Amazing right? It was a really good deal but then, in all honesty, it kinda felt unrelaxing to both eat and have a foot massage at the same time.

By the time we got out, it was almost 10pm. We then headed to the 2 famous dvd/cd shops just across. Take a look at the outside:



These shops are just directly in front of each other. Noticed anything on the second shop???

Apparently, the signage works!!! The other shop has nobody in it.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
