Bar Chinois - Chippendale

Walked in at 9.30 on a Wednesday night, a couple still dining at one of the outside tables, to be told they were closing in 10 minutes and we couldn't even have one drink! One barmaid was adamant, the other looked embarrassed! We nipped across the way to Kensington Street Social, and had lovely cocktails and great, friendly service. What a relief!

Came by for cocktails before our dinner reservation at a nearby restaurant. Ordered the Coco Chanel which was served in a cute teapot with japanese tea cups. It was a nice concept I have not seen before and I really enjoyed it! It was a delicious concortion. I'm not normally a fan of tequila, but the taste of the coconut tequila was pleasant and apparent w/o it being too strong. Looking forward to returning to try the Rum Bisou, their other teapot cocktail.

Food and drinks: Were decent, fresh and appetizing.  Service: All staff were attentive and friendly. Ambience: Dark, and feels like you're eating at someone's house cos of the setting (we ate upstairs). Did ponder if we'd ever get attention for service, but we had no trouble at all.
