We went to the Lebanese restaurant at the JW Marriott in Deira for dinner last night. Interesting, tasty food in a lovely setting. The bread for the diners was produced 'live' by a woman who sat cross legged on a platform with a hot plate in front of her. She rolled the dough then threw it up in the air several times all the while stretching it until it was about 12 inches in diameter. She then put it on the hotplate to cook producing thin, light and fluffy bread.
There was live music (4 man band) but no bellydancer as according to the waiter she was 'doing a visa run' though that may be the Dubai equivalent of the old Sydney favourite 'she's sick tonight'.
