| Jiuhua Spa & Resort |
I am not a SPA expert, but going to this kind of place I expect two basic things:
1/ Getting clean
2/ Feeling good
Both were not met there, by far my worst SPA experience ever. Many people bathe without prior shower, I even saw kids peeing in the public area.
It's huge, has many pools but they are all basically the same thing and are quite a low quality.
They also have onsen-like indoor baths (non coed) that are clearly more acceptable and uncrowded, though still not enough.
The ticket is 300RMB at the entrance that is clearly a rip-off, you can get a groupon any time for 69RMB if you still want to go to this wicked place.

I have been waiting 4 years for this shop. Specialized has had a presence in Shanghai for quite some time but never this far north. All of the accessories and parts are authentic and the hired help very knowledgably. Prices are no different than what I saw in California.

Great for all kinds of clothes. Most of the booths carry fake products but there are some that don’t. It’s best that you take someone that has been there before so they can point out which ones there are. Above all, I would caution buyers never to convert the asked price into their home currency. If the products weren’t fake converting would be a good way of judging a good deal from a bad one but they are so the comparison doesn’t hold. Go during the week with a preference for Monday or Tuesday. Crowds are fewer and prices tend to be lower.

| THE VINELEAF |
|
went there on a saturday night looking for some pub grub. We weren't disappointed! The Vineleaf is small but perfectly formed. My Scotch egg was delicious. Good size, served warm and with a runny yolk that oozes out when you cut into it. Yum. And the fish&chips was the best I've ever had. Ever. There isn't much on the menu - yet - but it is all made perfectly. Owner Will is super friendly, chatting to all his customers. I can't wait till he extends the menu and am definitely going back!
