The 7 walkers namely Betty, Peggy, Polly , Mok Wah, Edward, Jimmy & Lionel decided after our usual wednesday brisk walk at MacRitchie to have lunch at Shunfu Food Court next to Sin Ming Condominium Thomson Road. We had quite a wide variety of food like char kway teow, soon kueh, abacus, popiah, mee pok, mee kia, ee char kueh, butterflies, pisang goreng, giant fish balls & also our kopi see, kopi kow & teow her.
Betty & Edward left after the lunch as they had to go for another appointment.
Jimmy suggested visiting the Aramsa The Garden Spa at Bishan Park 2 Ang Mo Kio Ave 1. This spa is being operated by Ms Jazreel Low, the 1st runner-up in the 1st Star Search Contest. Zoe Tay was first & Eileen Tan the 2nd runner-up. She still maintains herself very well rather lanky & slim.
The staff gave us a good tour of the spa & its amenities like the rainforest shower room, the one bed, two bed massage rooms with jacuzzi, etc. The spa is very close to nature surrounded by lots of shrubs, creepers & plants. It's a beautiful spa but unfortunately, the prices for the various packages are rather on the high ends.
From the spa, as suggested by Peggy, we then proceeded to a durian stall next to Uncle Leong Seafood Ang Mo Kio somewhere opposite the Kebun Baru Food Centre to buy good & cheap durians selling at a dollar each. These 1 dollar durians are worth buying & the meat is just as good. Some of us also bought the D24 at S$7 per kilo & the Mao Sun at S$12 per kilo.
We indeed had a great day!
