Most locals would know this renowned Hainanese Chicken Rice coffeeshop along Purvis Street.CF sked me what I felt like eating today after our 'shopping expedition' at Robinsons (she on retail therapy, me on the road of desperation to get a pair of shoes for this Sunday's wedding dinner)...so after considering the area, I suggested 'Chin Chin'.
CF, armed with all her eloquence in Japanese, laughed at my pronunciation^ and advised that I never say that to a Japanese man.
Luckily recently when I asked the young trainee for lunch, intending that he tries local cuisine, I didn't go, "Iwata-san, you heard of Chin Chin? Want to try?"
^ Chinchi is the male's *ahem* anatomy
