The take
A small museum in the Jacob Ballas Centre on the Iraqi-Jewish traders, merchants and Chief Minister who shaped Singapore. Entry is free but you must book a slot at least three days ahead. Plan around Saturdays and the Jewish festivals, when it's closed.
Good to know
Sunday opens at 2pm, and the museum closes on Jewish festivals
Awafi, Singapore's only kosher restaurant, is on the 6th floor of the same building
Finding it: Jacob Ballas Centre, 24 Waterloo Street, Singapore 187968. Book a slot at least three days ahead; the building also has a kosher restaurant
