Canada

intercepting_fist Hey - another Canadian here in Dubai. Just saying "hello"! Where's a good place to go to meet other expats in Dubai? I was told "Rock Bottom" near Bur Juman is a good place. any thoughts? Nice to meet ya!

BobbieMasoner eeeeeeek, rock bottom is a DIVE. the last couple years havent been kind to it. what sort of places you looking for? a bar? check out Jimmy Dix (at the Movenpick hotel) or Trader Vic's at either Madinat Jumeirah or the Holiday Inn. Clubs- Dubai Marine has boudoir, shochos and Serai (arabic club)- probably the place with the least hookers. MaaaD Friday nights are 65 Dhs just to get in. Drinks are around 25-30 dhs per drink. Other nights of the week i beleive are free .. check out and for dubai nightlife info ;) MaaaD Bobbie :roll: your actually recommending sarai ? come on .. its like the worst place ever .. when was the last time u where there ? I say you check out friday nights at Trilogy (Madinat Jumeirah) .. intercepting_fist Thanks for the replies! I have heard of this Triligy place - where is it exactly? Is it expensive to get in? Nice to meet you both KC I think Trilogy is usually about the 50dhs mark - it's part of Madinat Jumeirah. Bar Zar, Jam Base, Trader Vics, Left Bank are all there too, plus restaurants. fayz Hi, I'm from Canada as well, relatively new to Dubai so can't offer too much advice but....... I don't recommend Seria AED 550 a bottle and filled with posers and mooches. I'll probably get flamed but I don't mind Rock Bottom, there are a lot of people there that are down to earth and I found people are easier to talk to, you can just be yourself. There is also a Canadian Expats club here you may wish to join, Apparently Liberty magazine (magazine for North American Expats) is having a Canada vs US party near the end of September at Jumeria Beach as well. All depends on what you like though. Welcome to Dubai intercepting_fist Thanks for the info! Hope to see you all sometime, perhaps in one of the places you suggested smartd welcome fellow leafs fans :) Cheers, D Liban

With you on that fayz, Rock Bottom is not half as bad as it appears to be on first glance...True the smoke is overwhelming and the downtown dubai factor is there...But I found the people who frequent there are more genuine than the glitterati who make their appearances at the more posh clubs...and of course the knockout punch is the music...their bands are always awesome! intercepting_fist LEAFS SUCK! SENS RULE! even without Hossa BobbieMasoner

I say you check out friday nights at Trilogy (Madinat Jumeirah) ..

habibi- i GO because serai is so tacky! that's what makes it fun- i go with my girls- we don't dance with the dudes, just stick to ourselves. If you put yourself out there as willing to dance with the men, it'd be a completely different night mAJOR pAIN alright the clubbing guru arrives !!! hahahahaah check these places out ... still is the same as my last suggestions Madinat Side to Chill: Left Bank Madinat Side to Party: Trilogy Thursday and friday evenings ***** Dubai Marine Side Chill / Party = Sho - Chos ... Party = Boudios Dubai in General ... Jimmy DiX @ Movenpick !!!! = GOOD BAND GOOD DJ AWSOME SOUND SYSTEM !!! Good Old Lodge !!! KubU Bar at Intercon ... it Got its share of hookers but the musics alright !!! Jools Bar = Good Band !!! Rocky's at REgent Palace = Filipino Club with two Bands that plays 90% English with good RNB DJ ... Sound and Lights SUperb !!!! I LOVE THE FOOD TEmpo @ Seashell Inn = this place is still quiet ... if you guys can still remember those days with Stake and Rock and Roll !!! a combination a Good Stake backed with a really Good Canadian Band ?? yes It was 49ers ... This Venue has had somemany Facelifts and trasformation ... and its now called Tempo .. wich in Design it totally moved away from its 49ers roots ... its more chick and classy with a whole new athmosphere they took the band and turned it into a cosmopolitan club !!! with nice comfy sofas cool light fixtures and awesome DJ this places is a must see place ... but its sad that when its empty like all bars its dead lonely because the place is huge ... but try to go there during wednesday and fridays its cool !!! BobbieMasoner i've been at jimmy dix the past 2 tuesdays- the drunk girl with pink shoes trying to grab the mic- that's me ;) Pumpkin Escobar

Maybe I am thinking of the wrong Tempo at the wrong Seashell Inn but isn't that place a small Indian restaurant with live dancing? I went there a few weeks ago and I didn't see any sofas ro DJs or anything. Maybe I was in the wrong place sniper420
