Chef Bjorn Shen of Artichoke has been on a roll lately—with all the pop-ups, collaboration dinners and the opening of ice cream stall Neh Neh Pop—and he’s not stopping.
His well-received Thai fried chicken eatery Bird Bird is also finally getting a permanent home. It’ll take over the space formerly occupied by French restaurant La Petite Navire over at Ann Siang Hill. The space on the raucous (and often messy) Ann Siang Hill will be dishes out Thai grilled chicken, as well as green papaya salad with crispy chicken skin, salted eggs and fermented rice vermicelli. Drinks-wise, the space will be shaking up alcoholic slushies. The space is set to open by November and will have a retro feel with mismatched crockery and a down-and-dirty diner feel.
