Mian Tian Sing Salon

My friend Gloria introduced me to this hidden treasure. It's a walk up so it doesn't have the fancy store front space. It's a blessing because they spare the costs that they would incur with a big space.

  • The hair cuts here are hella cheap. $18 bucks for hair cut wash and cut for long hair. Even in Chinatown, that is considered dirt cheap.

The hair cut and wash, includes a massage and styling. It's around 40

mins

of bliss. The best part is that you walk out looking like a million bucks.

Since I work at

CICF

, I often have hat-hair or kerchief hair. If I have a date after work or I'm going somewhere nice with friends, I'll opt for a hair wash. Hair washes here include a scalp and shoulder massage, and styling. All for $12 bucks!

CHA CHAN TANG

Replacing the former Green Tea House is the new Cha Cha Tang.

The newly renovated shop is bright and reminds me of HK Station.  It's nice to have another tea shop as an alternative to Teariffic.  The drinks and snacks here are yummy.  Great to for get togethers to chit chat with friends.

PEARL RIVER

Pearl River is the famed Chinese Department Store that has been in operation for over 40 years.

Some of our old school Chinatown go-ers, may remember Pearl River being somewhere other than Broadway.  They have moved to a few different places over the years, but they are still the same group of people.

This 3 level marvel sells everything form furniture to shoes and foods.  Shopping at Pearl River is really an experience if you've never been.  You can even pick your own fabric and have your own dress made here.  The clothing here is beautiful.

There is bound to be something here for everyone.  Prices here are more than reasonable.  It's easy to stock up on a lot of goodies!
