Report on my visit to ISpa Irvine, with a question at the end for anyone willing to exchange info for my field report lol.
I went on a Saturday. Arrived around 4, left around 8. Was told by attendees that peak time can run until 9 or even 10. Things were busy throughout. Many guys were presumably looking; I was followed into the steam room by like 4 dudes who seemed to be trying to cruise me. There was a pretty attractive Asian guy there in the earlier hours. Interestingly I wasn’t sure if he was cruising, but he did at one point make very definite eyes at which point I followed him all the way out to a patio outside the Jimjilbang area once we dressed. He was a nice dude and we chatted. It was interesting to hear that we had both noticed each other. Another twink type Asian dufr i saw in the steam room invited me via Grindr to do something in the bathroom there. Apparently that’s where stuff happens at ISpa often because the rooms are pretty open. I declined because I wasn’t looking for hard cruising and I continued to circulate the wet area. Around 7-8, things started getting busier and the cruising was more overt. At one point a bunch of guys came into the steam room after me and started wacking it lol. During that time there was one very attractive guy but I left to have dinner with one of the guys I chatted with before really sussing out his orientation.
overall this is a good one for people looking for lighter cruising or maybe just picking up a number. There were not very many highly attractive men but a couple were decent. The number of Asian dudes in both the cruising and non cruising population was high if that’s your thing.
My question for anyone willing: any other suggestions for places to meet hot Asian men in OC/SD/LA? I’ve heard wi spa has a lot of hot Asian men, but that it’s not possible to play there. What about picking up a phone number like at Ispa?
Happy hunting
