What: Monthly Vinyl Club by NH7 and Zenzi at Zenzi, Waterfield Road, Bandra (W), free entry.

Why: Vinyl and dine at Zenzi this Sunday to celebrate the first of NH7’s thematic vinyl music sessions. Bring your own record - this month’s theme is the 60s – and join a community that hopes to rock the club’s turn tables, exchange vinyls and return to the “physical, more human side of music”.  And for the record: food and drinks will be discounted.

When: Scratch to win on March 20, noon to 4 pm.

What: Angdai Day Spa at Le Sutra Hotel, Union Park, Khar (W), call 26492995, Rs 450 for a 30 minute foot reflexology.

Why: If an oasis and an art gallery had a baby, Angdai would be it. Go gaga over this cute mini-spa housed at Bandra’s hip art hotel, one that just about fits in a single massage booth, chair, zen fountain and two therapists. Ask for the very deft hands of Rojee and choose from kneads, facials and body wraps (foot reflexology with scented massage wax is value for money). 

When: You need pampers.
