My Favourites

 Kiko Mizuhara
US born Japanese. A model, singer & actress based in Tokyo.
An exclusive model for the Japanese Magazine - Vivi and Seventeen.
I like how the a contemporary classic jacket is matched with a Japanese traditional kimono.

Edie Campbell
British Model. Started modeling for Vogue in her beginning of career . She also features in adverts and runway shows for Burberry, Marc Jacobs, Chanel, YSL , LV & others.
I love the "romantic" feel in these posters. Her loose braid & her gowns remind me of a gypsy like style.

Currently, she is the founder & editor-in-chief of CR Fashion Book.

The Cajun Kings - is a neighbourhood restaurant serving creole style seafood - fresh crabs, lobsters, prawns, mussels, giant bamboo clams and various seasonal ocean pickings boiled with a unique rich seasoning such as garlic butter, lemon pepper & cajun spices.

 

My mum described the restaurant as "this places doesn't supply dining plates nor cutlery !". How apt ! Everyone uses their 

bare hands to reach into large plastic bags of delicious piping hot seafood, to pry open shells and reach for juicy pieces of clams or shellfish. We were there on a Sunday night and it was full of families and friends.

Interior & Atmosphere 

Bartender area

 

Oh my ! Does the menu include Louisiana gator meat ?

 

A long trough wash basin for us all greedy people !

Order Time

Our server suggested we order the "hot seller" of the house. We chose the TCK Combo.

Protective aprons were provided for us messy eaters !

While waiting for our meal to arrive, we played with Mr. Croc.

 

Starters

Fries to ease our hunger pangs while waiting for our big feast to be served!  

Yes! Here comes the server - he carried a big metal pail with lots of seafood. He reached into the bucket and pulled out 2 large plastic bags.

Peek-a-Boo

Fresh and juicy especially the bamboo clams. The smoked chicken sausages were so good.

My sweet bf, he helped peel off all the prawn shells, clams and returned the seafood to the bags to soak in the goodness.
 

I'm super full and contented (**rubs stomach**)

 

I'm sure I will be back again!
