For the uninitiated, siam diu, according to Wiktionary, it is a Thai-themed nightclub or disco at which people dance to music and pay a hostess to talk to or drink with them by buying her a flower garland.

Basically this:

A defining characteristic of that scene is that, well, it's basically a disco.

But now, like most establishments, some appear to have evolved it into an open air concept.

Coffee shop siam diu

Facebook user Debbie Ong uploaded a post with two videos of what appears to be different singers, flanked by two more girls carrying flower garlands.

Here it is.

Here are the two individual videos in case you can't see them.

The coffee shop seems to be located at Woodlands.

Both videos seem to feature the same two men.

The second video however shows one man handing out some cash — at least S$10 — to purchase some flower garlands.

Before his friend did this:

Yikes.
