At present, we are in Dubai during Ramadan. Ramadan is not just a month of fasting, but also a time for reflecting, appreciating and sparing a thought for those less fortunate than us. It is a month of giving and forgiveness, a peace and unity. The fast is traditionally broken slowly with dates and a glass of water, followed by hydrating juices and soup known as Iftar. Its a time of sacrifice and a time of celebration. When the sun sets each evening of the Holy Month, the offers of delicious food arrive in abundance. Dubai being the most cosmopolitian and vibrate city in Gulf, has an excellent variety of restaurants offering the chance to enjoy cuisine from all over the world. From American to Thai, Indian to Italian and everything in between.
The attractive, and offen imaginatively designed,modern shopping malls in Dubai are one of the highlights of shopping here. They are generally spacious and air-conditoned, offering a welcome escape from the heat. Most malls have foodcourts offering a wonderful variety of cuisine from the ubiquitous hamburgers to Arabic meze, Japanese or Maxican food, Mangolian food and we are making use of it everyday, No wonder I have gained 7 kgs of weight in just 12 days.
Now I know what Shri Duryodhan must have felt while roaming in Maayasabha, Drupadi should not have laughed at him.
