Pattaya Day 3, bye bye city of sins~

Onto the last day of stay in Pattaya, I make a point to visit the best's in the city.

First I traveled to the "Health Land", with the help of the friendly Hotel Limousine Boss. He offered to drop me at the massage house, a 5 min drive away, as I chance upon him moving out of the carpark in the afternoon. This is also highly recommended by him.


Outside look of the Massage House.

The massage house looks decent on the outside. As i tried alot of times to get Vat to recommend me the "decent" and good traditional Thai Massage. Walking in, i was greeted by the receptionist warmly and was guided to rest at one of the sofas as i wait for the masseur. I notice that there wasn't much people around, but did notice a number of local people, hence i guessed it is not jus a tourist attraction - Usually substandard with lotsa advertisements and lousy skills.

Massage was done by a senior masseur in her late 40s and i was pretty happy since i felt the older they are the more experience they are. I boy i was right. :)

Initially, i was thinking this lady is just like any other masseur as she didn't use much strength. After hinting her with sign and a mix of English, Chinese language, i finally got my "strong massage" and was soon regretting it.

After a while, i start to show signs of pain as parts of my body is as hard as thousand year old stone. At one point of time, we were giggling away as i was trying not to show my pain and she realized.

On the whole, i must say its one great massage and i fuller enjoyed it. At one point of time, i actually dozed off. Coz i can't remember the other hours passed by so fast. It was 2 full hours of massage and i paid 450 baht with a 100 baht tip to the lady for exerting so much strength to loosen my tough muscles. :)

Nest up was the much awaited Tranverstie Cabaret Show, The Tiffany Shoe. It was actually quoted to be the best in the world, and i truly agreed. Vat got me a second row centre seat and i had a great view of the stage. It was a night of elaborate dressing and unbelievable "ladies". The show was done in a lip-syncing manner but the actors/actress showed much professionalism, as you could feel that they are singing even though the songs were in various languages. They have songs in English, Indian, Korean, Chinese and even Russian. Of all songs, the Korean songs were most welcomed as there were lotsa Koreans. I was amazed by the fair looks and skins of these lady boys and many a times i am trying to tell myself, maybe they got a mixture of ladies, especially the leading dancers.

The show was done in a much extravagant manner that all of them were dressed in fascinating clothings. From the traditional korean dresses to the traditional english dress with wigs, and the glamorous, sparkling night gowns. I was most intrigued by the Indian dance as the lead actress did a great "belly dance". Furthermore, she was giving me lotsa direct winks as i was sitting right in the center. (Maybe he winking tot the guy behind la. lol)

On the down side, there are a number of them i felt was not that fantastic. Some how, i felt quite sorry for them. Out to become a lady, yet they do not have the features to be one, and hence cast aside as accompanying dancers and not catching the viewers attention at one... Sigh... The good and bad of transvestite...

Check out some photos i took jus now!


The outside of the Tiffany Show.


One of the not so fantastic lady boys. But this one actually make the whole show funny. Filling in when they want to have a change in back drops. Oh did i mention they have a huge number of back drops too! Including a water sprouting centre stage!


At the end of the show, they will stand outside, allowing tourist to take photos with them, of course, at a nominal fee. :)

Oh, i forgot to add... Finally managed to stuff these KFC meals down my stomach. The most interesting of them all was the Grilled chicken burger. The chicken actually taste great but as you can see below, the addition of brocolli, yes BROCOLLI in buns!?! Is not my type of burger ba. Taste awfully raw though its soft and definately kills the flavours. The grilled wings were as good as the grilled chicken. With a hint of peppers. And the Orginal Chicken, was rather bland though tender in the center and crisp on the outside.


Thats the meal i bought. :P


The look normal yet not bad chicken.


The funny "Brocolli" grilled chicken buns...


The Grilled wings. Nice~
