Re: Equivalent of "Jockeys/Yorks" in Abu Dhabi
It varies... McGettigans/Rosso's/Nell Gwynne's are our current favourites. Still not been to the Yacht Club at the Marina but want to give that a try. Heard that Mahiki is meant to be good but not been there either. Will also hold my hands up to TECOM Rock Bottoms on a particularly blurry occasion...
Mcgettigans is alright.. Never heard of Rossi's.
Mind you I'm not really a big drinker anymore..3 pints drunk.

Do you happen to remember if there was an English sailor and another bloke with you.......?

From a perfectly innocent question (about cheap UK bars in AD), I can't believe this thread degenerated into where to pick up a hooker.
It's not allowed in UAE is it?

Commander - Rosso's is in Amwaj Rotana. It's a pizza/pasta place but with quite a big bar area so good for drinks. Has Peroni on tap which always appeals, nice atmosphere and when it's cooler a nice outdoor terrace.

Definitely not... but then this was after the 7s and it was the new RBs not the old one...

And lots of things are not allowed in the UAE but go on anyway as with most countries.
