This was quickly reversed.
Food prepared with alcohol needs to be labeled as such now, and it’s back to “business as normal.”
Seems they like to remind us dhimmis who pulls the stings in town every now and again, but the reversal was seen more as a financial decision after increasing pressure from big businesses. After all, Sheikh Mohammed needs infidel$$$ more than ever now, to keep his Emirate from sinking back into the sand.
Now if only they could get around to fixing the “halal bacon” they serve in Dubai - damn weird pinky stuff with no texture or flavor....
Thanks for the update.
