Hot New Bar Freezes Patrons (http://www.wsoctv.com/food/4285251/detail.html)

SINGAPORE -- The new hot spot in Singapore is leaving patrons in the cold.
The bar's big draw isn't so much its drinks or location but the temperature inside. The bar in the sweltering city contains a decorated, industrial-strength freezer that keeps the temperature between 28 and 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
That's cold enough to keep the staff wearing heavy coats and ski caps, and patrons get a 10 percent discount if they show up in winter wear.
There's also a "chiller" room, where the temperature is a more normal 64 degrees and an outdoor area for those who can't stand the cold at all.
The idea is so popular the owners plan to open another one soon.
