House @ Dempsey............for desert and drinks


House is an interesting wine, dine and also SPA place located at the far end of Dempsey hill. It is built in an old barrack and you can still tell if you look around carefully.

The spa is on the 2nd floor of the barrack and is part of the SPA Epirit chain. This spa is a 2007 award winner and hence it commands a slightly more expensive price compared to the other SPA Espirit outlets. Every room has a different theme which makes this place special. However, I prefer the massage from Spa Epirit Paragon, but you don't get the nice special themed rooms. Then again, when we talk about spa-ring, its really subjective.

Food and drinks are served on the ground floor. There are also different themed private function rooms for that special event. I'm impressed with one of their function room which is like a little "greenhouse" that is good for hosting a small tea party for 10 people (or slightly more). This "greenhouse" allows meals to be taken in an air conditioned environment and yet so open to the natural greenery of the surrounding.

The PR/customer service manager, usually quite a looker (always a different person everytime I was there), would go around the tables to ask for your feedback on your dining experience.

There is a good desert menu. If you are in the company of friends, go for the Moby (a choice of 3 deserts at 10% discount) or the Godzilla (a choice of 6 deserts at a 15% discount). The deserts are sometimes creatively bold like the Burbur Hitam paste stuffed in puff pastry.



Its also a place for meals. See http://4-the-love-of-food.blogspot.com/2008/11/house-dempsey-hill-brunch-in-barracks.html

For the first timer, just a little tip for you.......... Ask yourself "Are you a pussy or a cock?".
Answering this question will lead the way to the restrooms without the help from the service staff ;-)
