The first thing that strikes you about One Rochester, the stylish hangout in colonial Rochester Park, is its lush garden. Verdant and smartly-decked out, it's the perfect place to hang out with a cool drink on a stuffy Singapore evening. Inside, One Rochester continues to impress. Housed in an immaculately renovated bungalow, the space is made up of a series of individually styled areas. There's the cosy Living Room, ideal for those who just fancy an evening of amiable lounging, and the masculine Library, which has a more formal air. The Playroom, as the name suggests, is the most vibrant and lively room in the place - head here if you want to make a serious night of it. The bar is very well-stocked, with a particularly large selection wines on offer, plus numerous beers and a wide variety of sake and spirits. One Rochester makes much of its gastro-credentials and, to this end, serves an interesting menu of Asian-influenced dishes with which to accompany your drinks.

Singapore Nightlife

It's convenient to go bar- and club-hopping in Singapore, as the golden triangle of nightspots -- Zouk - Mohammed Sultan - Boat Quay -- are all a short taxi hop from each other. Be warned, on Friday and Saturday nights the clubbing herd comes out in full force and you may have to call for a taxi to avoid waiting in queue.

Drinks - including beer -- are fairly expensive in Singapore. Most bars have happy hours, where drinks are at a sharp discount or standard drinks like vodka tonic are on one-for-one offer. Wednesday night is Ladies Night at many bars, while some bars and clubs mark out one night of the week with a special dance or music theme. The bars serve finger food, some offer the usual pub grub like fish and chips or spring rolls, while the trendier ones have sushi or teppanyaki on their menus.

If you're hungry for a real meal after all that clubbing, there's usually an Indian roti prata stall, hawker centre or coffee shop open nearby. The Newton Circus hawker centre is alive all night, while many hotels have coffee houses that welcome the tired and hungry until the wee hours of the morning.

Singapore Nightlife Hot Spots: Orchard Road

This famous shopping belt also harbours some great clubs. Venom (Pacific Plaza Penthouse, 9 Scotts Road, 7347677) boasts a state-of-the-art dance floor and a sweeping view of Orchard Road. The theme changes every night, and the music ranges from pop to retro to house. The crowd -- well-heeled and chic.

The Arena Singapore

The Arena

Stepping into this spanking-new club, you can’t help but think that it resembles a lavish karaoke lounge or hostess-style nightclub. Its glossy black walls and equally glossy black floors reek of snobbery and you half expect a perfectlycoiffed mamasan to come greet you and lead you by the hand to some plush booth where girls await. But that’s not the sort of place this is, despite appearances. Rather, at 10,000 sq ft, it’s touted as Singapore’s largest international live music venue. This behemoth will focus on international acts from the United States, Britain and Australia on its two-month rotating playbill; the energetic Toni James and her eight-piece band from the UK recently ended their residency in July. This month, the club will host local favourites Krueger and Enigma. The club’s alluring daily bottle promotions – such as one-for-one deals on Chivas, Macallan and Absolut Blue – mean you’ll spot big-spender types (albeit those looking for a bargain).

Barfly Singapore

Food connoisseurs, do not be fooled by its moniker, for Barfly is so much more than its diverse array of cocktails and alcohol-laced concoctions. Conveniently located within The Cannery at Clarke Quay, this restaurant is classy without compromising credibility in terms of food quality. Possessing a certain air of mystery, Barfly is definitely a place to see and be seen. With several live musical performances lined up over the next couple of months, Barfly is soon to be a familiar name amongst discerning nightlife aficionados and novices alike.

• The Vibe
  Goth is a running theme at Barfly. Decorated in dark pink, purple and red hues, the ambience at this establishment is nothing short of spectacular. Large crystal chandeliers loom overhead, and heavy wooden furniture adds to the somewhat royal feel projected by restaurant. An attention-grabbing winged statue stands proudly in the middle of the room, and in keeping with the sophistication of the place, the menus are leather clad and oh-so-chic.

• The Food
  In terms of selection, Barfly's menu is expansive. Relatively more up market in terms of pricing, the food at Barfly is aesthetically-pleasing. Ladies will be glad to know that there is a regular Thursday night dinner promotion as well as special deals on drinks.

  For a twist on the ever-popular Cuban cocktail, try the Lychee or Strawberry Mojito ($13). Both are sweet but potent, with fresh fruit accompanying each colourful beverage.

  One of marketing manager Jason Wong's personal favourites, the Torch Shiro Maguro ($14) is a thrill for the tastebuds. Comprising white tuna tataki with wakame and onion relish, this slightly salty gastronomical gem is extremely fresh. Lightly seared on the outside and delightfully soft on the inside, this dish is truly exquisite.

  The Barfly Seafood Mezze ($22) is ideal for seafood lovers. Black cod, king scallops, soft shell crab and Kataifi prawn make up this platter, a complementary combination of crustaceans and fish that is simply mouth-watering. Crispy yet tender, the crab almost melts in your mouth, while the scallops have a Mediterranean tinge to them owing to the vegetable salsa they are served with. For more on seafood, sample Barfly's Rock Lobster Soup ($15), consisting of a creamy bowl of goodness with a trace of vintage cognac. Almost milky in texture, this full-bodied soup contains succulent bits of lobster, and will doubtlessly leave you wanting more.

  For something more substantial, the Crackling Suckling Pig ($36) is quite appetizing. Slow cooked and served with lemon puree, the pork is flavourful with a crisp outer layer and should sit well with most palates. Alternatively, the Grilled Succulent Lamb ($45) is deliciously juicy and tender but could be served slightly warmer. Also, the apple mint sauce is barely tasted. However, the well-roasted potatoes accompanying the char grilled lamb are tasty and manage to distract from the lack of mint sauce.

  The Sour Cherry Chocolate Pudding ($14) takes the cake, if you will. Topped with vanilla ice-cream, the decadent dessert is served warm and sits atop a bed of berries. Sinfully self-indulgent and appropriately portioned, the pudding is immensely satisfying and a perfect ending to a satisfying meal.

Punters relaxon leather loungers and the deck is lit by ahuge electric billboard. Pray for rain – whenthe heavens open, drinks are two for theprice of one.

Chilli Crab Singapore

The Chilli Crab, we feel, is one of the most interesting dishes one can have in Singapore. The spicy gravy really brings out the flavour of the sweet crab meat (I know there are those who would only have their crabs steamed). We paid for 1.1kg crab, and we really didn't expect it to be THAT huge. The picture probably doesn't really show it, but half of that was all we had for dinner. The girlfriend ate the other half.

Clarke Quay Singapore

Clarke Quay is a historical riverside quay in Singapore, located upstream from the mouth of the Singapore River and Boat Quay. It was the centre of commercial enterprise in the late 19th century. Today, the restored warehouse features a whole range of restaurants, wine bars, entertainment spots and retail shops.

• History
  It was named after Sir Andrew Clarke, Singapore's second Governor and Governor of the Straits Settlements from 1873 to 1875, who played a key role in positioning Singapore as the main port for the Malay states of Perak, Selangor and Sungei Ujong.

• Today
  With its recent revamp, Clarke Quay today is one of the biggest entertainment zones of Singapore. It is taking centrestage with many new operators with funky styles, darling attitudes and sexy concepts to transform it into a world-class destination. It has a vibrant nightlife and acclaimed acts and clubs including Crazy Horse cabaret from Paris, UK dance club Ministry of Sound and Ibiza’s Café del Mar have opened their doors here – spearheading a revolutionary consortium that will define Clarke Quay as the essential nightspot. Head to the waterfront now!

• Cruise by the River
  Another highlight of Clark Quay is the Singapore River Cruise. Our editor had a try at this and this is what she said “I found myself a comfortable corner to sit back and absorb the cool breeze, dazzling lights and sounds coming from the little restaurants and pubs established along the river. I can so understand why tourists enjoy this short cruise that usually last between 15 to 40 minutes, depending on the pick-up and drop-off location. It is a great recess from the hustle and bustle that seems to be onshore.” We strongly recommend that you try this ride.

Carousel : Singapore

The lobby of the Royal Plaza Hotel on Scotts Road boasts a sparkling jewel in its crown: Carousel. The newly-renovated restaurant has not only expanded its seating capacity to approximately 250, it also now opens till the wee hours of the morning to cater to the movie crowds along Orchard Road.

• The Vibe
  The restaurant is bright and lively, bustling with people busying themselves with the huge spread before them while delicious smells waft throughout the premises. The interior's bold colours, plush furniture upholstery, grand high back leather chairs and dazzling one-of-a-kind designer cutleries wow the crowd with its daring design.

  The entire restaurant is sectioned into four differently themed ‘rooms', the living room; the area with the best view of the interior, the state rooms; which offers guests a private dining experience, the verandah and the terrace. Every section boasts vastly different yet cohesive designs.

• The Food
  Prepare for a tour of delicious flavours as Carousel takes you on a gastronomic journey around the world. Begin your rounds at the Japanese sections. Let the deep red hue of the thickly sliced fresh Maguro (Tuna) and the vibrant orange of the salmon work your appetite into overdrive, or satisfy that urge with a good few pieces of perfectly hand-rolled sushi. Rice grains are firm and do not fall apart upon sinking your teeth into that lukewarm (never cold!) roll, the sign of perfectly rolled sushi.

  Not in the mood for Japanese? How about experiencing the Mediterranean with the wide range of seafood; starting with the wonderfully succulent oysters. Or, be tempted as the array of plump juicy shellfish beckons for your attention. Refresh your palate and take a break from the overload of seafood with, perhaps, a little bit of greens. Stroll on down to the salad bar and conjure up a salad of your liking, or if you prefer, indulge in the exotic cold salads, such as the caper berry or grilled zucchini dressed with herb oil and sultanas already pre-made for your convenience.

  Another one of the restaurant's highlights; the rotisserie, is both a feast for the eyes and the palate. Those in the mood for some juicy meat will rejoice; try out some duck if you're into game meat or the lamb tagine for a taste of faraway Morocco . The simple combination which is the noisette of beef with butternut squash works well in that it effectively bring out the mild sweetness of the beef. Less adventurous diners can head for the Italian home-made pasta spread, or have a taste of Carousel's Hainanese chicken rice balls.

  Save some space for dessert, as Carousel's dessert chef from the Netherlands aims to entice and thrill with his culinary concoctions. With an enormous assortment of his divine creations spread across three dessert sections, he covers good old British favourites such as bread and butter pudding or berry crumble. The last dessert counter serves a collection of mousses, puddings and cakes.

  Your meal around the world comes at only $33.50 for lunch on weekdays and $35++ on the weekends, dinner at $42 and $49 respectively. High tea goes at $23.50 on weekdays and $28.50 on the weekends while the rate for supper is at $19.50.
