Please please please can you take me out on one of your shopping trips? Ummm and maybe teach me how to cook ;)... SJ: there are no BB&Bs here, though there's just about everything else. There are huge supermarkets and you can find pretty much everything (if you're willing to substitute things like pumpkin flavored rice noodles for the plain and willing to drive around in circles)... Examples of some shops/restaurants from home: Crate & Barrel, Toys R Us, Dunkin Donuts, Krispy Kreme, Macaroni Grill, Outback Steakhouse (err maybe this doesn't count)... Service is definitely different though on many levels, better/worse in some ways. Don't be apprehensive though, so long as you've got an open mind and refrain from constantly comparing/noting the cons. Good luck with your move... sd-b, hope we get to meet- do you go to the bumps n babes groups?

Chances are there that I might have to move to Dubai from USA, very apprehensive. Having got used to living in USA, feeling it hard to adjust to any other place. How are the supermarkets or grocery stores in Dubai? Anything like Walmart? Stop and Shop? -from Boston Hi,
