Don't compare it that way. Bringing biscuit and maggie mee in Singapore is allowed. Don't make us Malaysian feel shame. With budget you can always find budget food and stay budget hotel/motel.

You should try the Satay Bee Hoon but I not sure is halal or not.

actually we overbudget for our trip to Singapore due to changing the flight days hence have to pay penalty.
so have to cut cost wherever possible. but not going to borong a box of maggi. only 2-3 packets.
thats why i need to check with more experienced peoples laugh.gif

2 star hotel for 4 nights is already rm1500, at little india doh.gif

There are many food stalls in Little India selling halal food. Most Indian stalls are halal, look out for the sign. If you are at hawker centre or shopping mall, there will always be at least 1 or few stalls selling halal food. This is I think a requirement. So don't worry about food. Only thing might be price.

Changi village hawker centre is closed for renovation I think till year end of next year but you still can find halal coffeeshop. No problem, I had eaten ther some 1.5 months ago.

Right in the heart of Chinatown, there is the Buddhist tooth relic temple. You can visit but mindful of your dressing. Not sure whether you can go up to the roof top garden. A small one though, but no harm going since there. Most places are except common areas are closed to public except on occasions. Evening night scene would be good between sunset and night fall where the temple will be lighted up.

Weekdays, MRT peak period to avoid. Recently SMRT increase discount from 30c to 50c for travelling before 7.30am. After 9am would be a better choice to travel.

anyone know whether we can bring foods to Singapore like maggi, biscuits etc?
save to save money since it will be a 5Days trip

Normal Maggi mee and biscuit are cheaper in MY, you can bring them in. Food wise, if budget really is your priority, then avoid shopping mall foodcourt. Look for coffeeshop. However, if most areas you are visiting are also tourist area, then the next best place is still foodcourt as restaurants would cost more.

Hi guys, i am planning a trip to Singapore with my gf either end of this year or next year around March or April. We plan to go Sentosa - Universal Studio to have our vacation there. So, i want to ask, where is the best place to stay if we are going to Sentosa? I hope the place is good and value for money. Not too expensive but have a good convenience go travel around.

Thanks!
