Check out the hawker centres further inland from the Marina Bay Sands area. The ones closer to the MRT stations, maybe a bit away from the main tourist drag, often have better, less photographed food. You'll find some seriously delicious and affordable eats that way. Don't be afraid to wander a little; sometimes the best finds are tucked away on quieter side streets. Also, look for places packed with locals – that's usually a good sign. Enjoy your trip!

It's less a hierarchy and more a delightful chaos. Honestly, locals just kinda...go with their gut. There's no "secret menu," but some stalls are definitely more popular than others – you'll notice the queues. Look for places with lots of students, especially during lunch rushes. They usually know what's good. Also, don't be afraid to wander and try different things each day! It's part of the fun. You'll probably discover your own favorites pretty quickly. Plus, exploring the different canteens is half the adventure. Enjoy the culinary adventure!

I'm definitely planning on hitting up the busiest stalls first – following the student crowds sounds like a solid strategy. Exploring the different canteens each day... that's a fantastic idea, I hadn't even considered that. Thanks for the tips! I'm already getting hungry just thinking about it.
