Unhappy Hanging in Singapore

On a short 5 day vacation out of Aus, Anyone been here lately?
Finding food can be anywhere from $4 per meal to $100.
From the ethnic hawker centres to these over priced hotel restaurants (poor value for the $)
Toured Chinatown and little India, food is great I must say. Cleanest city I’ve ever seen.
So I guess we’ve done the usual things, anyone know of anything else out of the way?

I haven’t been there in awhile but would highly recommend the night safari and a day trip to Sentosa island.

Thanks folks.
Yes, went to Jumbos seafood for chilli crab, tried the local chicken rice too.
Saw the gardens yesterday, Was at the Marina Bay Sands rooftop pool this morning, the wife loved the Crazy Rich Asian movie.
Going to Phantom of the Opera tonight.
Squeezing in a fair bit in 5 days.
Went back to Asian markets again for grandkids outfits and a few shirts for myself.
