arintji

heading over to arintji to celebrate my belated birthday with my sister this weekend( i know, my birthday is lasting for like a week and two days, how awesome is that? ahahha). i've been reading rather contradicting reviews about this place.. the age said it was horrible and was revamped to become something awesome(ish)
however bloggers and some other food places strongly recommend we NOT go there.

hmm, however as a rule, i always follow the age epicure - 9/10 they are true to their word and places they do recommend are usually on the money. verge, comme, madame sousous and various others.. the epicure is hardly ever wrong !

oh well, just made my booking. its too late to change now!

i do however approve that they have their meals tailor-made - they can either be entree size and meant to be shared or it can be a huge-ass plate meant as a main. with 6 of us going methinks we're gonna have our very own little degustation menu set up. plus the restaurant is situated on fed square so its gonna be rather scenic to munch our food overlooking the yarra river.

oh have i mentioned that this was opened my jacques reymond? although as his second restaurant its probably NOWHERE near his first, i'm hoping he took enough time out after its whole 'revamp'ing thing to make it almost as awesome as his first.

i know, i can't expect it to be as awesome as the first.. a meal in jacques reymond is likely to cost you at least 180 (they only do degustations on the weekend) and this one you can get a meal for as low as 30, ahhaha!

owh well. wish me luck on my choice of restaurant people!

may the force be with arintji,
cheers~
