I have always wanted to try out the high tea sets here in Tokyo Pastry because it looks so delicious from their promo ad poster.  And soon after i found out livingsocial is selling their high tea set, quickly inform the girlfriends and go for it as it as really a good deal! We pay half the price for the full high tea set! Each person will get to choose either a cup of coffee or tea (refillable).



Our 3-tray high tea sets. Which I am very impressed with it!



Bottom tray : There's fried chicken, baked potatoes and sammiches!



Second tray with lots of buns and swiss rolls! 



Top tray with desserts! We have fruit tarts, fruit cake and 2 macarons! 



We have a total of 3 sets! 3 of them comes with different cakes!



Here are the cakes for us to try!
I like their matcha red bean cake so much! Is really yummylicious!

If you ask me will I go back? Definitely I will. Food is good, environment is good. Not too noisy where you can still catch up with your friends. Beside the pastries, bread and cakes they do serve a wide range of food too. Check it out here

{REVIEW} : My First Trial on Far Infrared Sauna


Last weekend I have been invited for the first trial on Far Infrared Sauna which I always have wanted to try. Which got me very excited as I have read  a lot of good review. And finally I'm here! All thanks to My FIR Wellness.



Lets have a short brief on what FIR is. FIR are waves of energy that are capable of penetrating deep into our body and gently elevate the body's surface temperature and activate the major bodily functions. FIR also expands capillaries which stimulates increased blood flow, regeneration, circulation and oxygenation.

The benefits of FIR sauna is to remove harmful toxins from the body and is also safe to us. Other than that, it helps burn 600 calories is just 30minutes! How cool isn't it? Besides that, it does help to boost our metabolism too! In another way of saying, it helps us to lose body FATS! 



Before going through FIR sauna session, they'll measure you with this machine. It will then tells your weight, body fats, muscle mass, bone mass, visceral fat and metabolism age.


Once done with measurement, they will then check through this booklet to compare and see if you pass any of it. Explain to you each of every categories and how important it is to maintain at the healthy level.


Before going through the FIR sauna session for the first time, they also encourage us to have calcium and magnesium. This is to replenish the lost minerals during the time in FIR sauna. 



After explanation by the person in charged, I then lead to a room where the FIR sauna cabin was. And this is the  cabin I'm gonna sit in for the next 30mins! Luckily I'm still small to fit in. LOL
There are also another room with a FIR sauna cabin that can fit 2 - 3 peoples.



This is how the interior looks like. Which is so much different from convention sauna. In a convention sauna, other than yourself, you can't bring anything in. But in this FIR sauna, you can even play music during your 30 minutes session. Beside that, you can even sleep in if you want as it won't makes you suffocate ;)



A Jar of water for you to hydrate yourself while relaxing in FIR sauna.



The heat they set for me is 42degree. According to the person in charged, they will normally set at 42 degree for first timer because concern that they might not get used to it. While for regular FIR users can tolerate higher degree. But for me at this degree of temperature, I'm sweating like nobody business inside the cabin. 



There's also salted lamp at the corner in every room. Salted lamp, which releases negative ions that created from the heated salt into the air and gives us cleaner air. The air you breath feel fresher and nicer! Is definitely something good to have! 


After the 30 minutes sessions, I do felt more energetic as if I just wake up from a power nap. During the 30 minutes sauna session, I kept myself hydrate and of cause playing with 2048 to kill time! Lol When I am inside the cabin, I don't feel suffocate like how some convention sauna made me feel. Also because probably there's no steam inside the FIR sauna. Although both FIR and convention sauna I feel the heat but for FIR, the heat is something different. I felt more relax as if I'm under the sun. And also it is safe to use because everything is programmed! Even if you fall asleep inside you too need not to worry you'll suffocate inside as it turned off itself once the designated time ended.

Other than that, I felt my skin more glowing too probably after the sweat! After my first session it makes me feel great and I'm definitely gonna go back to them soon! Because of all the benefits of FIR sauna!
