    Hi Ganesh / Do ‘s,

    I shall be in for the Afternoon session only.

    May not stay back for the BBQ as SAT is a work day.

    I hope this drive is suitable for NEWBIE’s like me.

    Cheers,
    Leo

    Dhaval, yes the BBQ location will be very near to Adnoc Al Faqaa……but for the wood and other BBQ materials, I think its better if you can arrange it one day in advance as Im not sure you will get anything at the petrol station….

    Im eagerly waiting for the nice paneer BBQ starters 😀

    Guys,

    Firewood is available at the Al Ain Highway Restaurant and Grocery at the start of E66 (Dubai – Al Ain Highway). Its just behind the Eppco pump next to the Emirates NBD Branch before Nad Al Sheeba exit.
