If you were planning to enjoy a steak and Guinness pie, or even a Crêpe Suzette, during your visit to Dubai I have sad news for you. It’s not going to happen!
A law that was originally passed in 2003 is now to be enforced with immediate effect according to a story in the 7days today, namely no alcohol may be used in the cooking or preparation of food dishes in restaurants and hotels.
Personally I am having a moment of silence at what this may mean for our culinary adventure.

It seems there may still be a clarification on this (in true Dubai fashion). I will keep you posted.
Yes, don’t panic just yet. As usual there’s a ‘rethink’ and a ‘clarification’ will be issued on Tuesday.
As is normal, the ‘clarification’ will confuse things even more and in the end the whole thing will be quietly ignored.
