Our little comment?
Where is the kiwi food? Wouldn’t it be nice to have the option to order a good ol’ New Zealand mince pie, or steak and cheese pie? Fish and chips? Or a simple sausage sizzle would be amazing. New Zealand also produces a lot of beers – ie Monteith’s, Speight’s, Mac’s…. and let’s not get started on the wine. C’mon Dubai Bars 🙂
