Now this is Flashy. Everything in this airport lights up, flashes and scrolls. This is in the info desk before you get into the main terminal. It was sort of like shopping on Madison Ave in New York. Evey thing from Channel to Rolex to McIntosh I-pads and computers could be had. Me being me, I sought out the nearest bar so I get shit faced before my next flight. I only had an hour. Dubai being an Islamic city. I was terribly frightened there would be no booze.( Muslims in South India recently burned down a restaurant that was selling liquor.)
Just I was about to give up, I notice a discreet staircase with a small sign saying "Tapas Restaurant" Low and behold there was a trendy restaurant with a bar!!! I asked the waiter, a quite effeminate Asian boy, if they had Tequila. He wiped out an I-pad and started flipping through the tequila selections. SO, I had a shot of Cuerveo 1880 and a Carona beer. Drinking booze in a Arab country served by a high tech  sissy. You just cant make this stuff up.
