The world's cheapest Michelin-star restaurant. Since it's been awarded a star, the queues are mighty long during lunch times. Go mid-morning or mid-afternoon for off-peak queues. Or you can go to the "fancy" version run by the same guy at Hawker Chan restaurant in Smith Street, Chinatown.

Sightseeing

Of course, you must go to the MBS while you are in Singapore. My suggestion is to start at MBS, walk towards Fullerton Bay Hotel, grab some drinks on the quay and watch the light show (starts every hours from 8pm).
