Festival City is over near the airport, but I would try the Dhow and Anchor first at Jumeirah Beach Hotel, remember it's Ramadan

Went to Organica and scrap it from the to-do list unless your desperate for fish & chips (they have organica pizza now which is ok'ish but i hate to pay almost GBP15 for a medium pizza

They have cod swimming in the Arabian Gulf, do they? Its hardly likely to be fresh in the traditional sense. Defrosted most likely.

Its airfreighted over on ice and digitally maintained instead of frozen, same concept as Dhow and Anchor and Rivington. See if you can taste the difference...

Please explain how you digitally maintain fish. Its a new concept to me. So how much do you charge for your cod and chips? Presumably, if you are advertising on here for free, you will offer BE members a nice discount.
