@7f537d63 They were in a hawker stall in race course road at the time. The location seems to match the description
@6adf5d3d that said, I don't think it was a hawker center but a stand-alone restaurant or stand
@7f537d63 They had a hawker then a stand alone near Kallang, which had far more outdoor seating. Could also be a bunch of other spots but feels like 30 years ago a foodie take on chilli crab would be that spot.
