店小二

There is this chinese eating place in Marina Square that is forever crowded and plagued with long queues. A few times, the Fab 3 or Fab 4 didn't get to dine there. But now I finally got a chance, and it was with Adeline (Fab 5's latest member) for our X'mas exchange-cum-dinner. Okay, it's called 店小二 。It actually means hotel page boy, boy servant.

We also didn't understand why it always has a long Q, and the average waiting time could be around 30 minutes to an hour. On Thursday night, me and Adeline went around and realised there actually wasn't a Q since it was slightly past 630pm (not the busy dinner time yet). So we went in and treated ourselves a sumptuous 5 course dinner. Here's what we had...

It was surprisingly very good! I love that crispy tofu and the crispy roasted duck skin. Sigh, have to watch my waist getting from 25" to 26" now, boohoo, it must be the beer-drinking-party as well! The price is reasonable for 5 course with longan-sea-coconut-dipped-in-Sprite dessert (not in the picture), it costs about $25 per person. It includes the cost of that bowl of peanuts - top right corner (which is already on your table), free flow of chinese tea and towels of course.
