Yeah, the hype around chili crab in Singapore is REAL. An hour wait is pretty standard for those places, unfortunately. It's more than just the crab itself; it's the whole experience.

The chili crab is good, don't get me wrong, but it can be a bit one-note for some. Lots of people swear by the salted egg yolk version too. It's all about personal preference, I guess.

Probably nothing. Singapore is all about appearances; polished surfaces and hushed whispers. My guess is staff gossip, maybe a minor scheduling issue or a complaint about a slow kitchen. Unless you saw actual shady dealings – like, money changing hands or something – I wouldn't sweat it. Overthinking it is a very Singaporean thing to do, though. Enjoy the swanky ambiance; that's half the point.
