Holland Village is a nice place to hang out...plenty of al fresco dining options and rather popular with the expats. There's a mix of indian, jap, viet,western and local delights to suit everyone's tastebuds. My regular hangout, since I live 10 mins away off sixth ave.

Generally, the further you venture away from the tourist belt, the cheaper the services are. Places like Ang Mo Kio, Toa Payoh and Tampines would be a good spot to check out, although I'm not sure if there are reflexology svcs available, but the local shops do have rather good deals. For those in need of glasses, you can get one for about S$120 or less (regular short-sighted ones). Good for those without vision coverage. Plenty of optician shops in Toa Payoh.

I'm not in SIN now, else I would more than happy to check out this coming weekend. At this point, I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it (something cropped up last minute). Will know in a few days time.

GK Aljunied EW9 would be the station to go to. I read somewhere on FT that it's about 5 mins walk, but I think it's more like 10 mins. Here's the map to see the location of the restaurant in relation to MRT.
