Singapore - Raffles and tourist stuff

We went to the Chijmes center for dinner last night. It's actually a really nice spot. It's an old building, a church, which is heritage listed and it's full of cafes and bars which line the inside of the walls. It's a bit pricy but I thought it was defiantly worth a look!
After that we went to the Raffles hotel and had a singapore sling in the 'long bar' although Paddy is convinced that this is not the actual long bar of previous fame. It was filled with excited tourists and although the cocktails cost 25 singapore dollars each they were delicious and we got to eat unlimited peanuts and through the shells on the ground. I would definitely recommend the Raffles long bar for a drink just for the hell of it. It is a little bit fake but sometimes fake is good when we are a tourist and it certainly made us feel like we were back in the 1930s.
