Narrative:
On our descent into pae; seattle center changed our arrival to the chins 9. We received a descent to FL240. I was getting the ATIS on VHF 2 and we received a descent via the chins 9. Pilot flying gave the briefing and stated crossing raddy at 250 knots and 11;000 feet. The STAR serves several airports and has a two different landing south crossing restriction of 16;000 feet and 11;000 feet. I thought boeing field was another name for paine field. I finished the landing data and at approximately 13;000 feet center asked what altitude we were descending to. I replied 11;000 feet. He stated descend to 12;000 feet and gave us vectors for our approach into paine field. As the pilot monitoring; I should have asked seattle center for clarification of the crossing restriction. Better review of the arrival into an unfamiliar airport.
