Well Insomnia @ Chijmes has drinks at by Singapore prices cheap, a good band. Wed nights 9-11pm (9-12pm girls) $20 all you can drink, not just local tiger beer etc but rather carlsberg/heineken/stella etc in bottles.
Just out wednesday night hang out, logs of expats as well as locals in the mix. Close to some hotels that the flight crew stay at.
For Singapore i would say if people visit on a few days...
1.) New Asia bar, 47th floor of the Swisshotel Stamford
2.) Check out the Clark Quay clubs, and i like Indochine down there for something different, but also all the bars up and down the river. MOS (Ministry of Sound) would be my number 1 club pick for the big commercial clubs, a preference over Zouk but i do like Velvet underground @ Zouk also.
3.) for the guys (and girls if your game) check out Orchard Towers, 2nd level has Impana world music bar. (Be aware this is not the kind of place you take your wife unless she is very open minded ! but have been in with mates and girlfriend just to show them and they managed to survive)
My Irish pub of choice to watch F1 and Rugby etc would be Muddy's sort of under the Orchard Hotel i think it is, anyway across the side street from Orchard Towers.
Best hawker food would be ChompChomp @ Serangoon gardens (Dont miss the best chicken wings in Singapore, fantastic stingray, carrot cake {not what you may think !}, great Satay and Hokkien mee, beer $5.50 for 500ml bottle)
Also a Russian place over the other side of the roundabout has an upstairs bar that is cheap if you want to take your own group and have a bar to yourself.. pool table, darts, and $125 bottles for spirits + mixers.
Yep, Singapore is buy a bottle , the cheapest way to drink at most places and you can leave it there with your name.
