you must definitely do chili crab, my favourite chili crab place is in the esplanade, no sign board. it's a fancy place but it's actually not that much more expensive than the hawkers or up at east coast area. the chinese like to have competitive pricing. besides, your cab to those areas pretty much make up the price difference :P seafood is expensive here, period.

btw, if you want to get good views of the city plus a drink, you might want to go to new asia bar which is on the 72 floor of the swissotel in cityhall. if you go during happy hour, it's not so expensive and you get great pics. another great place for pics is my building actually. haha... it's the same view as you get from asian business review on bbc :P if you take your folks there, they will definitely be able to have pics no one else will have! hahaha :)

If it's the last stop on the tour, we can stay and explore the area on our own. Then proceed to Chinatown, Arab st., or other areas. We can go back to hotel for a brief rest. Then have a light dinner before the night safari.

little india naman, the best food is vegetarian :P there's another good north indian resto there called mustard but a bit pricier, best suggestion siguro is to go to banana leaf apollo and have fish head curry, it's on racecourse road.
