A Canadian in Abu Dhabi: Dinner at Red Castle: You say Kleenex I say Klenex
I took this photo at my favourite Chinese restaurant in Abu Dhabi, Red Castle, the other night. It’s in Abu Dhabi’s Chinatown, which is admittedly very little, in the middle of the block between the Madinat Zayed Centre on Muroor and HSBC on Airport. (I recommend the salt-and-pepper shrimp.)
I have two things to say about this photo. The first is that I love that almost every restaurant outside a five-star hotel in the UAE dispenses with napkins and simply places a tissue box on the table. The other is that it is hilarious how this tissue company is so lethargic about their brand they could not be bothered to think up a proper name for it. Let’s hear it for Rolerblades and iPhons.
