It's one of the best places in Singapore to eat crab - chilli pepper, butter, in soup, steamed, in butter and pepper. The last time I went there we also had the fish, which was a great surprise because it was so well cooked.
Ang Mo Kio Ave 1
I can't remember the block number, but taxis and people staying in the area will know it.
My recommendations are always carry an umbrella, get a Tote a Luxe Guide, visit the Night Safari and to stay at The Scarlet: excellent location and contemporary decor at a value.
Also, eat at the food stalls and buy a Makansutra if you can find it, or read the Calvin Trillin article in the New Yorker to determine which food stalls to visit.
If you're flying in and out of Changi, and just staying overnight, stay at the Changi Village Hotel. Check out the shops on 33 Erskine Road. Treat yourself to a foot massage in Chinatown.

Great cocktails served outdoors. The bar is located in the garden in front of the villa housing the French restaurant and action theatre.
It is located at 42 Waterloo Street (just off Bras Basah Rd, across from the arts museum).

I visited Singapore last week and have enjoyed my stay there very much.
The cosy room at the City Backpackers, as well as its location in the heart of Singapore, near to the Raffles City Shopping Complex and the Esplanade Concert Hall and Theatre, couldn't be better.
A big thank you to the friendly staff!
