Dorra Slimming Experience Review


Class 95 have been giving out free 2x Dorra Slimming French treatment. I have always been curious about whether these companies are really giving them "FREE". So i decided to give it a try. After sending in the SMS, Dorra Slimming contacted me almost immediately. You won't have to worry that you are not the first to SMS in and you will not win it or etc.

After calling me, they arranged for me to go down to their nearest convenient outlet as soon as possible. No matter how busy you are, they will make sure they arrange a timing with you before you can hang up on them.

I went to the outlet at Kovan. I told them that i only had 1 and a half hours and they say that the treatment will only take an hour and asked me not to worry, then one lady brought me to a consultation room and asked me to wait for awhile. Handing me a form to fill in. The therapist came in and started to explain to me their treatment... then all the different products... then all the available packages and upgrades you can do... still not convinced?

and since you are the 'winner' of this Dorra Slimming from the radio station, you have even more privileges if you upgrade NOW~! Still not convinced? Another senior came in and started all over again... then they took out all the testimonies of the past customers and show them to me one by one... One hour had past from the time i entered the shop and i have not even started my treatment... I told them i am in a rush and had an appointment after this, they say that they will start the treatment.

Finally, i am brought into the treatment room. After taking all the measurements, i am laying on the bed waiting for the treatment to start. The therapist did not for any moment stop trying to convince me to sign up. Asking me why? Why i don't want to give it a try? The 2 treatment will not be enough and the 2 free treatment DOES NOT come with this serum and without the serum, you WILL NOT see results. So if you sign up now, they will upgrade your 2 sessions to have the serum as well.

I was wondering... then what am i doing here now? anyway, she went on and on and on... halfway through, the other senior came in AGAIN! The treatment was not enjoyable at all with them going on and on and on.... They started of with trying to sell me 30, then 20 then 10... going on and on for almost 2 hours now.....

I thought, finally my treatment is finishing and i can rush for my next appointment now... (it's already been 2 and a half hours by this time) After the treatment, i'm back in the consultation room. Then it starts AGAIN!!!!!!! This time the senior tries to make the junior look pitiful, saying that she needs to build her portfolio. Saying that the junior served me very well just now right? I can help her by signing up and becoming part of her portfolio etc. Pleased with me to help her etc.. I told them I AM IN A RUSH!!! but they say they understand... and went on... in the end, i gave in and signed for a 5 sessions. Even with that, i had to bargain with them so that they will give in and let me go...

Seriously, unless you are really willing to go and end up paying that kind of price for slimming treatments... i think the decision is up to you... After leaving, i did my research. I hope i did them earlier but i'm still thankful that i only signed for 5 sessions. I found people who signed for $50K worth of treatments and they still would not let them go during every single treatment sessions they attended.

At the end of the day, i wondered if i 'WON' or i actually 'LOST'... Was there results in the treatment? that did not matter to me anymore because the experience was just unpleasant. I this my worse hard selling experience ever. This is also the reason why i love and cherish those people do business with true sincerity and out of love. :)

Hoshino Coffee, awesome food and the awkward lamp shade

Hoshino coffee~ you will love it once you try it! The soufflé pancakes, French toast, Japanese curry rice and the list goes on~

First up, the Hoshino hand drip coffee! The name of their shop is named after this hand drip coffee which is a very dedicate skill of coffee making. Unlike coffee by the coffee machine, hand drip coffee brings out the richness of favor and the smoothness of the drink. Coffee lover? Worth trying ;)

The Japanese curry rice! So delicious, I'm feeling hungry again just talking about it! However, it contains minced pork and beef. So if you cannot take beef, you would be missing out on this I guess. It has sausage, egg and the mixed pork and beef that are bended into the curry gravy. Hmmmmm~ yumm~

The omelette soufflé tomato rice.. If you are wondering what is in the omelette? It is literally egg soufflé on top and served with tomato favored rice below. A whole huge and fluffy soufflé egg. If you love eggs.. This will fulfill your eggs craving..

If you love dessert, waffles, pancakes... You will love the soufflés in an style. The pancake style with special toppings is really nice too! The softness of the soufflé leaves you wanting for more. Be prepared to wait for around 15-20mins for your soufflé to be served as everything here is done only when ordered. So you know it will be fresh... And hot...

End off with the French toast? I think it will be a little filling to be at the end cause you might already be full eating this! This is a must-try! The French toast served on a pan, with cream topped at the top.. And the sugary flour covering the French toast.. This is awesome! Advised to share with friends and you might want to order it right from the start as it can take up to 30mins to serve during peak hours. Worth the wait? I would gladly wait for this.

Then what is the lamp with the awkward shade about. I did not take any photos of this because photos cannot describe why is it awkward. But you were even out on those all tables on the right side of the cafes, you will know what I meant. If you are on a date, be sure to request for table seats on your left upon entering. You might have to wait a little longer for the seats but it will save your date night. The lamp on the long table is spread out equally along the long table with a awkwardly huge shade. The moment you sit down, you will realized that... You do not see the top half of the person's face opposite you. 

I was there with a group of friends once, sitting on that table. And we got to be bending over throughout. Literally leaning in the table so that we could all see each other, and have our conversations. Since then, I will always request for individual table seating even if it means to wait. :)

Service wise can be a little slow, but I can be understanding as it's always very packed. So it's hard to expect that the staff will be responding to you the moment you call for them. :)

Overall, I LOVE the food! I got craving for the food ALL the time, whenever I think of it! Other than the unnecessary huge shade, everything in this cafe is soooooo goooooddddd~

This cafe is located at Plaza Singapore, new wing Level 3.
If you are coming up from the long escalator from the new wing, it is just on the right hand side of the escalator.
