well, recently we talked about everything away from Dubai, some use DF as Facebook, some trying to feed others their opinions in their mouths, now I am thinking more about my stomach

I was thinking what to have for lunch, I found out I have been eating too much chickens, any other ideas?
I feel like when I am tired of thinking what to eat I just go for grilled chicken...

Gosh there's such a huge choice. Sushi for one, Yo! Sushi, with the little conveyer belts is great, also Bentoya on Shk Zayed road - fabulous, always full of Japanese, so you know it's good

Plenty of places to try Thai food. Lots of seafood joints, the choices are pretty much endless, just pick what you want to eat and go find a place that serves it.

I do love Lime Tree, either on Beach rd or in Battutta mall - fab

The only reason I like Lime tree is you can sit outside and have a smoke. Plus its just a minutes drive from my place. Not too keen on their sandwiches though and for being a cafeteria its a bit spendy.

Oriental food, not my cup of tea either. Now Labanese is something I can eat all day

Well Mahmoud, it depends whether you like to eat a lot at lunch time. I'm not that big on a lot to eat for lunch so I'd go for an omlette or salad.
I had a lovely omlette at Le Pain Quotidien on the Walk a couple of weeks ago. It's a favourite of mine. It's a chain, they are in Emirates Mall aswell. Beware that they serve their coffee in what appears to be soup bowls. The person I was with wasn't very impressed with that.

Lime Tree has great salads etc. I'm a sucker for that place because of the carrot cake!

I second the Thai and Lebanese food!

OMG - the carrot cake and triple chocolate brownie (drool).

Chicken biryani from the local labourers canteen. 6Dhs and simply great!

That or extra spicy Nasi Goreng with double peanut sauce and a snotty egg from the local Thai place.

Normally scarfed at the desk whilst nose pressed to the grindstone...

Yet to find a good Sushi place in all Dubai...

As I said, Bentoya is the best IMHO. If the Japs hang out there, it has to be good

Oh oh Ravi's - can't beat their butter chicken and it's cheap as chips.

Nothing to get over just that...

Is that like saying 'The Pakis'?

Oh I've just thought! That reminds me of my Japenese joke, although I can't remember the joke. It was something about it being ironic how the Japenese ate raw fish and now the fish were eating....damn, what was the punch line?

Chocs doesn't like BM's jokes, neither does Kanelli!

Ravi does a butter chicken?

Had some Shanghai Noodles with spicy beef from Noodle house. Pricey and small qty but the beef was great

Forget Ravi's, try the butter chicken at Karachi Darbar in Karama!

Ah yes I;ve heard about that - maybe we should take a wander there sometime

K.Darbar's food is gay compared to Ravi's. Ravi's FTW !

K.D have a big warehouse in Ghusais where everything is made and taken off to the various branches

Oh heck yeah! Mind you their evening deals are still very good. The food there is amazing!

I like Yahalla in Karama, although not too sure about their 'Brains on toast' and 'French fairies' lol

I find Karachi Darbar food too oily

Ravi FTW

Oh no I have such a craving for Ravi's now.

Gutted if they changed Spice Island, loved the Mongolian BBQ and the sushi.

Nothing better than Bamboo Lagoon at the Marriot for Mongolian BBQ

Their seafood is very good too! I like their dine around offer, Bamboo Lagoon, Market place and Hoffbrauhaus all in one - bargain!

How can food be gay?? Is that like an order of chicken with chicken, or an order of beef with beef??

Only heterosectionals eat curry with plenty of chillies, napalm and broken glass.

Gays like korma!
