Hiya =)
How long will u be in SG?
Weather in Jan will be kinda rainy! A good brolly will do some good!
However, it'll warm & humid for u when it's nt raining
(if u had always lived in cool/cold weather country)
Don't worry abt the warm weather though cos AC is everywhere! =D
As for dim sum......hmmm, seriously I'm nt a big fan of dim sum cos I don't eat pork!
Nevertheless, for slightly high-end places, "YUM CHA" located at Chinatown is good. Don't ask for reccomenations, order depending on ur gut feel, cos I feel that restaurants in Chinatown (one of our places of interest) are out to earn a lil more from foreigners, esp caucasians!
here's a good webbie for u=)
(Do what the locals do! Hmmm...I shld say do what the expats do! lol)

PS: Do go to MUSTAFA CENTRE @ serangoon road if u're feeling really bored when hubby's at work! There're tonnes of things to look & buy @ relatively low price. Ranging from branded authentic watches to household items~
(However, it's rather crowded there, keep ur $ safe just in case. SG is relatively safe =))
Cheers~
and hope u'll have a wonderful time in this unique hybrid country~
