Yeah, so pretty much since my geologists friends have arrived, my wonderful diet has gone out the window! I'm not too bad, but I was really enjoying that downward progress on my scale. Oh well. It was worth it. Beer, food and much need company.

There is not much to tell (shocking, I know), but we went to the souk a few times, to The Pearl, hotels, and just around where ever. There is a decent variety of food if you can take yourself to it. Most places are concentrated in certain areas which always seem to have trouble with enough parking spaces. The souk definitely has the most multi-cultural cuisines and the prices are not too bad. The Pearl is limited and expensive. The food at the Villaggio is basically crap - there are a few really nice cafes, but mostly it's "American" food (meaning McDonalds, Pizza Hut, TGIFridays, Applebees, etc.)

In the last week, I've had Indian, Moraccan, Asian (multi national), Iraqi, and pub food. As well as a little bit of food I bought.
