Ang Mo Kio is quite a schlep. You may want to look at Kelly Jie in Toa Payoh.

A meal at Char May be nice instead of the place that is closed.

We might like to catch these free shows over the weekend

https://www.nationalgallery.sg/festi...visible-cities

” Light to Night 2020 : Invisible Cities

The Light to Night Festival returns in January 2020! For two weeks, art will extend beyond the walls of the Civic District's cultural institutions into the precinct's public spaces, transforming them with light, sound and movement.



Art, innovation and inspiring ideas intersect in this marquee event of Singapore Art Week . This fourth edition of the Festival is based on the theme Invisible Cities . The array of programmes—which span from day to night—draws us into the rich imaginary worlds of artists, writers, musicians, designers, filmmakers, performers and many other creative talents .

Light to Night Festival will be celebrated across five of the Civic District’s most iconic cultural institutions : National Gallery Singapore , Asian Civilisations Museum , The Arts House , Victoria Theatre & Victoria Concert Hall and Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay . “

FWIW on my Google Maps it says "recently added" (granted that your post was two days ago, situation may be fluid etc.)

Multiple review sites had <Closed> by the name, and last untappd checkin was November 2018.

American Taproom (261 Waterloo St, #01-23 Waterloo Centre, Singapore 180261) is quite nearby, has excellent beer selection (mostly not American beers), and is definitely open.

I had some spare time while on my flight to Asia (after eating my caviar in JAL F) so I created a wiki summarizing the info in the thread. What I put in there is just based on what people have posted (I am not organizing this event). If you want to update your status as an attendee, or propose an event, feel free to update the wiki as appropriate. I think it would be helpful to post where you are staying. If you don't have privileges to edit the wiki, then feel free to PM me if you want me to change something. I look forward to seeing some familiar faces in SIN and hopefully meeting a few new flyertalkers!
