Looking for dodgy nightlife in Singapore

Post by jpatokal » Fri, 23 May 2008 1:48 am

A lady friend of mine has expressed a burning desire to visit a dodgy nightspot, specifically a KTV lounge, in Singapore. I'd have a pretty good idea of where to go in Bangkok or even Jakarta... but here in Singapore I'm drawing a bit of blank. As I understand it, dodgy goings-on in Sg can be roughly divided into three categories:

1) Out-and-out brothels in Geylang etc. These are off the agenda.

2) "Joo Chiat"-style bar-pubs with one open space, perhaps a couple of semi-private booths, lots of overly friendly ladies and even naughty floor shows in some. You pay for drinks and tip the ladies, but no other surprises. Some of the establishments in Orchard Towers would also fall in this bracket.

3) The classic "KTV lounge", where you get a private room to romp around in and hostesses to romp around with. You're charged through the nose for the room, the booze, the snacks and the company, plus tips to the girls, and in some places the bills can apparently get pretty stratospheric.

So how would the fine establishments in categories 2 and 3 deal with ang moh couples showing up uninvited? Any recommendations for places worth visiting that won't totally demolish the wallet?

Please do feel free to PM if you find this topic a little too delicate for the public eye :cool:

I'd probably take her to the three floors of...I mean ochard towers. I wouldn't expect any problems from the girls (?) or management, but you might get some funny looks from the customers.

C'mon, there's plenty of dodgy nightlife in Singapore, see eg. http://sammyboy.com for where the local whoremongers hang out. But I'm asking here 'cause a) unlike the sammyboy crowd, I'm not after paid poontang and b) ang mohs don't usually go to these places.

Orchard Towers would indeed be the easiest choice, but it just sounds... boring. And the "girls (?)" around there are scary... :shock:
