He didn't say where he was staying...

But if he's at the arse end of town then I second Lady Medusa and the Dubai Marine club. Nice waterfront pavilion bar. But it closes early, I think. 7 pm? He can always move on to Boudior for his gay Lebo action.

Suggestions for a Wednesday night food and drink evening(casual) close to the area, and a Thursday night full on the lash session.

I don't fancy the Irish Village thats about my only requirement, just a good lively bar.
Good place to start: http://www.timeoutdubai.com/bars/sea...7-ladies-night

Though Scarlett's - which would have been very handy - is now gone as it's being turned into The Ivy

head up satwa to jumeirah and get yourself into Loca at dubai marine resort.

Quality bar, footy on tv, great selection of beers and damn good food.

Barasti is ok. Good if you want to sit around outdoors with views of the sea and Palm and skimpily dressed girls. In its own way it's less pretentious than many of the fancier hotel bars.

If you only want a quiet place to drink then consider Belgian Beer in Tecom. The rooftop terrace isn't half bad and the choice of beer is excellent. They do regular happy hour specials.
i agree, 20 ofus were in barasti from 2 - 10pm on Saturday and we had a great time, nice and chilled, at the beach, food is decent - no worries.
