Absinthe, Bukit Pasoh

I first notice of this place because of the name Absinthe (48 Bukit Pasoh Road, tel : 6222 9068); a name that is surrounded by half truths, rumours and a aura of dark disposition because of the purported hallucinogenic effects of the drink. It has in the course of history, been the cause of deaths. Of such as Oscar Wilde. I've tried some but failed to conjure the green fairies that were suppose to appear. I also realized that I don't enjoy it as the taste of aniseed/liquorice reminded me too much of cough syrup. But I digress..... this is a restaurant that serves French food.
