Posts: 35Permanently pissed off post-pandemic
After over two years, I finally got back to the Philippines and Indonesia. But they have been eviscerated by the pandemic. All of my favorite places gone. I've just been traveling around in a state of permanent piss offedness. A short stop in Manila on the way to Jakarta saw the amazing Air Force One / Flight 168 gutted and slated for demolition. I wrote about it in the Manila forum. A decent fallback was the 1764 and. Garcia full service massage place. Shuttered. The Manila scene has really taken a hit.
Jakarta has been no exception in my first couple days here. Pre-pandemic, I would get a room at Orchardz Bandara and hit the amazing and super hot talent there for like three weeks. Never needed to go anywhere else after I discovered it. Just checked in a couple days ago, though, and the spa is shuttered. It's a conference room now. Seriously? No on-site action at all. (I had RTFF and someone said both Orchardz spas were closed, but I did some crazy self-deception that since there are like 5 Orchardz around town, maybe Bandara would still be going. Nice use of my brain.) Before I discovered Orchardz, I would get an Airbnb near the Central Park Mall and walk 15 minutes to FM1. That was great, too. Cute, enthusiastic girls 350 k short time plus 200 k tip. Last went there in July 2016 I think. I didn't actually go there this time because Google Maps says "permanently closed. " More post-pandemic anger brewing.
In-call places like that are just the best for me. No fooling around with bars, traffic jams, lady drinks, walks of shame, dating site / app hassles wasting time sifting out lady boys, hard core pros, girls radically different in in-person appearance than online persona, etc. Just in to view the goods in person, hit the action, and out. And the rest of my day was mine for restaurants, cafes, walks in parks like the one near the zoo, etc. Now that all my favorites are shut down, I'm not happy. I've never been to Classic or Travel or Malioboro. Could be time to check them out.
But what I'the really like is to find an Orchardz substitute. Hotel with on-site action at the spa or action in the comfort of my own room just a phone call away. My next preferred option would be a walk-in fish-bowl spa that's not a bar, like the old Orchardz. One member provided a map. There are a few places there but not always with extensive detail and reviews from experience. But I'm having a look. Also, I've actually never accepted the offers of motorbike taxi or regular taxi drivers who asked did I "want woman. " I had Orchardz and FM1 and I didn't need to hassle with dealing with tipping them, wondering if the girl going to be worth it and so on. I wonder what other people's experiences have been with that. I've tried to RTFF back to 2018 or so, but there's a lot there, and probably a lot that doesn't apply post-pandemic.

Posts: 161New places (well, relatively)
So many discussions on meds, on travel, on everything else other than review of places. I am hoping my initiation would inspire a few to share their experiences too.
Some places which have not been talked about very frequently, I managed to visit them in last month or so. They are open, accepting and amazing (some of them atleast).
1. Mr Braid Bar. Do a google search you would get in an instant where it is. Expect walking into a full blown chimney of nicotine (if you go after 5 pm). Really good selection and price is 350 k. Same place, but on the ground floor is GVS. Apparently its the same "owner" - this place is 100 k more expensive. Everything on the offer. Girls are nicer, cuter and more willing to make you happy.
2. Mars. Pondok Indah, Plaza 5 - discovered a gem here. Name Vionita / Vanita / Wanita or something like that. An absolute tigress in bed. Service was astonishing. She loves men with hairy chest so if you have one, don't shave before going. My legs still tremble at the thought of the time I had with her. Loved it. Price is standard 455 k, but when you're done, the girl will cheekily ask for a "cigarette packet" at the counter. Which would add another 50 k to the invoice. Taking the total to 505 k. I experienced this 5 times already. I don't mind.
3. V Club pndk indh. Again if you search for this place. Would appear as New Vins / Vins on ggl mps. Three selections from rare, medium rare to well done. Each at different price point. Highest one goes for some 800 k. Totally worth it.
4. Chrry Karaoke. Grnd Wjya. To be avoided like a plague. Girls are clever and not wiling to please. One in particular. Fowla - has the most disarming smile. I decided to have a bit of karaoke fun before the "run", lest did I know she ordered a drink worth 200 k (called the DJ special) - to give you a perspective. This is just their way of adding money to your bill. Its basically a blue squash drink! So at the outset place appears nice, good quality and "cheap" - but the "additives" make it costly by the end you are through with it.
5. Junda. Again search for it. The only bird to try here is an actual DJ! Name is Salsa Blla. Costs are high! 1. 5 jt. But worth it for one time. Other than that, no one else here to ride home about (or ride at all). So call and check before you land. Its close to a mall so the road is crowded as if its the last day on earth and everyone wants to shop till they drop!
Well that's all from my side. Need to get back to my "pretend" life.
Ciao.

Posts: 70Thanks, that's really helpful. About the non family friendly places, will the providers offer or you need to ask for?

Pre Covid experience. Almost all of them offer HJ and FS. BJ might depend on the therapist.
If the spa name has "family" or "day spa", it might not. The reviews will also mention that it is "family friendly".

Posts: 70Massage Joints
Hello, I'm new to Jakarta and was wondering, all these massage places we see on the streets, are they all 100% vegan?
Is there a subtle way I can ask the reception or the provider if they have special services? I mean HJ or BJ not FS.

Posts: 20Just show your vaccination card anywhere, I was even able to board MRT with it.
Go to any pharmacies at the mall, look confident. Cialis comes in10/20 MG and Viagra in 50/100 MG, no prescription required. I bought Cialis 20 MG for Rp215 K at Century / Guardian, KF charges more for some reason and KF is outside the mall which I thought would be cheaper due to lower cost of rent.
