It’s probably a ymmv situation. I’ve tried the Thai shop paunchy recommended and didn’t get the same experience either. Maybe he got lucky and we didn’t.

The Japanese Asuka joint is expensive and hence I didn’t bother trying it out. I think I can get a similar to better value at QVB massage (Japanese) with a bit of TT for a lot cheaper rate.

My go to TT place these days is Siam wellness, they’ve got some hot Thai girls, I know Anita does a good TT but trying out the rest.
