Of Japanese food and nails

Fun, enjoyment and relax after exams! Pray for me that I'll pass, yea?

Met Alvin for lunch at FEP and booked myself for a mani and pedicure session.

The much raved Jap restaurant. Yum!

Interior. Small and cosy.

We are seated at the counter. Observing the chef BBQ-ing the meats.

Their signature bento.

Complete with miso soup and red bean dumpling dessert. Yum.

Alvin's bento set. The Udon is nice.

Then I adjourned to nail session at Milly's utilizing my groupon voucher while Alvin went for a hair cut.

Vietnamese girl doing my nails

OPI- Jewel of India

Its a all in one shop. It does eye lash extension, hair extension, manicure and pedicure. The workers are mostly foreign. Apparently the girl who did my nails is the most junior of the group. My heart my literally in my mouth and I was spying on her when she did my nails. 

Nail job took a freaking 2 hour plus because bubbles formed on the coat of paint after drying. Arrgh. 

At first glance, I would say the girl did quite a nice job. Never really cut me badly. She over cut some of my cuticles but luckily it doesn't bleed. However, upon closer inspection the next day, her skills are not up to the mark. The paint layers are quite uneven. 

I thought Millys should be quite good since a lot of bloggers raved about them. Also, classic pedicure should include feet soak and scrub right? But I don't know whether the shop foot basin is real or fake one. The staff never use it at all. My feet soak is done in a feet pail covered in a plastic bag and pathetic amount of water is poured in it. I was like huh?! Is that what you called classic pedi?! 

Still got 2 more session to go. Perhaps I should try out the Bugis outlet.
