Dinner and Drinks

A lovely night out: noodles at Maxwell Food Centre; experiencing the buzz of Lunar New Year-season Chinatown by osmosis. Telling stories and tossing ideas about casually before wandering into a chic little enclave; savouring its plush seating area and nice lighting. Being pleasantly surprised by who else turns up.

The key, quite simply, is not to try too hard. And when it succeeds, don't milk it too much. For the first time in months, we met up without a 'concept' in mind. Like magic, it worked much better than anything we'd tried recently.
