Garden House: 191 Nandan Lu
After a long flight, I thought it a good idea to get a good HE massage. Went to 191 Nandan since it was close, although I was debating the new soapy that was posted over on Nandan Dong (east) and Xietu. But with time and money, I can take care of that experience.
This was my first HE oil massage. After 999 and Sacrosa, I thought I needed a new experience. Well, it doesn't compare.
First, you go in. I was automatically ushered in by a girl. Up the stairs, into a room. The room was pretty sketchy. The floor was oily (and I'm only guessing what else). After a little wait the girl comes in. She was a solid 8. The massage was good. It's pretty legit up until she props your legs up on her thighs and starts giving the little man some attention. Eventually flipped over and at that point there was access to touch her. The word 'tip' comes up. She said 200, which I thought fair but then I assumed it covered everything. I tried taking off her top and it went 300. I said no. For 200 I got access to everything downstairs, which was fine for me. I rubbed her off, and no mention of tip was made again.
At the end got stiffed for the foot massage. Apparently everyone was busy. I wasn't really wanting to spend another 40 minutes. I didn't see a number on her to reference, but there's no fishbowl, so unless you've got language skills and are a regular, you get what you get.
The good, is that it's cheap way to get off 228 RMB. If you don't care to touch, you can walk out for 228 RMB. So, long as you can pop, you'll be just as happy. The place is dingy. Just fair warning. You get what you pay for.
What do you mean by "duck"?
Sorry if I'm being dense....
[QUOTE=Mock A Bee]There are women (many are career professionals) in this category who may actually entertain the idea of paying for a duck, which apparently is a fairly popular activity in Shanghai (sorry don’t know much about the duck scene).
Women 35yo ... would rather go out with a thoughtful companion (they miss the TLC) rather than just paying for a duck.[/QUOTE]
