Early start to Ramadan

Re: Early start to Ramadan
We are avoiding any of the big popular ones and going somewhere a little more high end in the hope of escaping all that.

I'm sacking brunch off altogether and going out for sundowners and dinner. Might go and survey the carnage somewhere after that.

A favourite place to watch post-brunch carnage is the Warehouse at Airport Meridian. You can take bets on who will fall on their arse on their way down the stairs.

They are all school dinners with people pouring in fizzy wine faster than the food.

This was a silly knee-jerk reaction by The Ivy and their brunch is back on, although I imagine many people will now have made alternative arrangements. The issue is due to the lapsing of live entertainment licenses, so you can have a brunch as usual with alcohol but no live music.
They have just posted this on their facebook page "So....the ever confusing situation continues! It would appear that we can serve alcohol, but that live music and all forms of entertainment are cancelled. So brunch is back on peeps! Sorry for all the excitement....keeps it interesting at least!"

Food was amazing, the wine was very good (apparently - I can never real tell) and excellent service.

Re: Early start to Ramadan
Yeah it is because they are stopping live music slightly earlier. Thats why a lot of the clubs are closing start of this weekend, not at the end of.
BUT it couldn't surely be because of the rumors circulating much earlier that we are about to be getting big news from AD direction. i.e. Radios to be only playing classical mournful music????

Someone dies so it's okay to drink gallons of alcohol, but don't you dare play that guitar!
