CHINCHIN

Up there in my top 'Most Expensive Eateries Ever' list.  With prices averaging $25 a dish 

But I'm pleased to say that i'm no-longer jobless so its ok.

Annie's 21st was on the books and it was reason enough to splurge with all my 'hard earned' *cough cough* cash. 

My sister and her Jap exchange student had a good laugh after hearing the name of the place we went to eat. haha

If you look it up in japanese you'll understand too... haha *shakes head* 

The unfortunate name aside, there was so much to like about this place. 

The food was so amazing.

Interesting decor, cool lightbulbs, cozy seating, super-chill-quirky-waitstaff, awesome bar with the biggest drinks menu I have ever seen.

Bel and xtine

Ammo and her trademark face.

Despite the '$$$' tag on urbanspoon, this place was super busy. 

One other thing about this place was that it didn't accept bookings either. And they politely refuse seating until everyone in your group is there. 

On a normal day, there would be a line out the door by about 5:30 so we made sure we were all over it like white on rice. 

We had intel on this place and we could not run the risk of not getting seats. Not on this day. 

So we were there at 5pm. 

So keen. 

I could rave about the soft shell crab and the desserts forever.
I feel like I had not experienced food until today. 

I also loved how they weren't afraid to use the chilli. Got a good kick out of it.  That was next level papaya salad.

Drink: Coconut crush

Dessert: Glutinous rice in coconut milk, mango and *plot twist* fried shallots. 

It was an interesting taste combo which left my mouth half confused and half amused by what it had just eaten. 

Some more snaps.
Because picture are great

Happy 21st Birthday Annie!

Love Choo.
