Tokyo was the most diverse "city" I have been to in years.
Every sub-street had authentic food. If you hang in tourist areas, sure, you have all kinds of crap.
Hang out in the small streets where you get local food. Even better, do a "home stay" which is what we always do while traveling.
Singapore is very synthetic and not so impressive in my opinion ... honestly, what cuisine is Singapore known for? And, is it different than what you'd get in KL?
Sorry man, but you need to travel (correctly) more often.
