Singapore Itinerary Help

I have one afternoon/night to introduce a friend to Singapore, its interesting neighborhoods and delicious food. By noon we should be ready to go after dropping off our bags and checking into into our hotel on Orchard Rd. (It will be a Monday, if that matters) I was hoping to include a bit of wandering through (and grazing in) Chinatown, the Colonial District, Little India, Kampong Glam and possibly East Coast Seafood Center or Hua Yu Wee for crab. (I realize this is probably pushing it and I'll have to cut some of these) I'd like to stop in several hawker centers along the way. Any thoughts on organizing my day a bit? Does anything stand out as better for lunchtime or better for evening?

I'll have 5 days there so plenty of time to wander around and try some of the places recommended on this forum. Just trying to figure out how to give a friend a "taste" of this nice city in a short time.
Thanks

Seoul (Insadong)

There are a couple of great posts recently about Seoul. Trouble is, I don't know the city and am finding it really hard to figure out where most of the places that posters mention are located. Can someone who knows the city give me a few yummy places to try in Insadong, where I'll be staying? (Or perhaps Gwanghwamun or northern Myeong-dong)
Thanks!

Restaurants near the Rome Cavalieri Hilton

Thanks for your responses. As to jen_kalb's question about why we're staying there, we're using Hilton points to stay there several nights and then will move downtown for the bulk of the trip. We're certainly willing to take the bus or metro.
