Oh, this is childhood memory. I wish my daughter will hold her wedding lunch/dinner here. Good food and just awesome sitting around looking up to the sky or absorbing the quietness in a busy city!

Convent of the Holy Infant Jesus was once a school in the heart of Singapore. CHIJMES Hall (赞美礼堂), and Caldwell House, now an art gallery, have both been gazetted as national monuments. The complex has been restored for commercial purposes as a dining, shopping and entertainment centre with ethnic restaurants, shops and a function hall. Worth a look and this... More

This was across from my hotel. They have a great food selection, eat there a couple of evenings and the food was good. A couple of evenings they had live bands. It was fun to go hang out and listen to music before heading back to the hotel.

Romantic place, perfect to celebrate anniversaries and valentines day with your loved ones. I was at Hogs Breath Cafe and the atmosphere was very vibrant, colourful yet romantic with its lightings and balloons.

Lunches are relaxed and tranquil . 3 a.m its rocking with clubs ...live bands and a few girlie bars ! No trouble...aggro free...lively...young...a bit risqué but... More

Beers are about $12 HKD for a pint (fairly typical) in the open bar. Sat and watched some soccer games. Service was fair, not exceptional but what do you expect from... More
