In Short
Looming over Juniper like an old-Hollywood Frank Lloyd Wright house, Straits' hardwood ceilings and origami-shaped lamps accent an angular design that pops with detail. Inside is a dark and chic scene; two stories every bit of as cool as the Grammy-winner behind its inception. More Pan-Asian than Singaporean, authenticity is delicately sprinkled into the mainstream menu. Kung Pao lollipops are bone-in and sopping with a dark gingery-plum glaze and the Ikan Pangang (salmon) is soft and sauced, wrapped eloquently in a banana leaf. It's a menu and setting that a gourmand will like, and suburban friends will gush over.

Went there for drinks with the girls and was a little shocked at the lack of service. Usually we get better service, but not on Saturday night. With all the other asian restaurants in Midtown like Steel and Aja, I don't think we'll go back.
