Festival City M&S is the biggest in the middle east but don't get your hopes up too much. |

Does it have any grocery section though? |

| not sure. i know that m&s were given the run around when they opened with regards to bringing food products in. as they all have to be checked, expiry dates in arabic etc, etc. i'd heard a storey at the time, that a competitor didn't want to much competition and have used a connection at DM or the government to try and have all the imported food products pulled - so the eventually opened without a food offering. :shock: |

Actually the biggest in the world outside the UK. Food section a disappointment, despite the conspiracy theories it's probably just too expensive to ship the fresh goods over, they have a half-decent jar and tin selection though. |

| The food section is relatively small and is probably catering for the small number of M&S addicts who can't do without it and are prepared to pay a lot more than the local products. |

| Also Park and Shop - I have been to the one in Jumeira on Al Wasl. It is not big but it has some household brands that aren't carried in the other stores. |
