28 Best Restaurants in Singapore | Condé Nast Traveler

"Regulars return time after time to this Upper East Coast Road institution for Hua Yu Wee's chili crab, crispy fried duck, and feng sha (flattened) roast chicken served with a potent chili-garlic dip: all decades-old dishes that the restaurant continually updates to suit the personality of Singapore's ever-changing dining scene. Over the years, its chefs have incorporated a modern touches; for instance, adding textural and crispy puffed rice to a traditional plate of fried rice. The regulars who have grown up eating here appreciate these small, but discernible, tweaks. When the restaurant gets crowded, particularly on weekends, the crab dishes can take an eternity (up to 45 minutes) to reach the table, but you're here to catch up with good friends, so what's the rush?" - Annette Tan
