You are 100% correct! I knew it was going to be an expensive city but $6 can of cokes/bottles at restaurants is fucking nuts. My starbucks bill here is $9 for me and my wife and there it was $16, a grande latte is almost $9 FFS. We tried to go to the chinatown hawker center but it was too intense for my fam, no air con coupled with pretty sketchy cooking and eating areas was a no go for my wife. I did have the best buffet ever though at the shangri la, 4 different types of crab, lobster and a bunch of other seafood all for the low price of $90 a person
We loved SG though and will be back
