For the sake of this guide we've included Ann Siang Hill, Club Street, Amoy Street and Erskine Road to represent the Telok Ayer district.<\/p> <p>With our guide, you'll find yourself maneuvering through charming alleyways as you discover quaint shops for a shopping escapade away from the malls, delectable bites at interesting cafes and if you head to Club Street at night on the weekend, the entire street turns into an outdoor bar lined with tables and chairs.
