toots wrote: Would appreciate the list too! 3 kids here during Ramadan is torture. Just to clarify ladies, I WAS not referring to Ramadan as torture. I was referring to having 3 young kids cooped up at home in this heat, without the option of going out in daylight seeing that there is no food or drink available/legally consumable - as torture. That torture is personal, for ME as a mom. Might not be for you, but for me yes, cooped up in a house with 3 bored children for weeks is torture. Sure, nothing compared to watching your starving child die of course, but what the hey, indulge me the melodrama. Do appreciate the little lectures on meaning of Ramadan but highly unnecessary as I grew up & am a citizen of a Muslim country. Did not mean mean any disrespect or to offend, I just wanted to know where I could go during the day. Perhaps I should have worded it differently but TBH didn't realise there were so many on here so ready to pounce and bite. Apologies and for those who celebrate, have a Blessed Ramadan.

Places that arent open for sitting down are usually available for take aways. The government gave business owners the option to pay for an extra ramadan permit this year to do take aways. Many more business will take this option this year in order not to lose profit since the rent keeps going up. Guess we will see lots of families hiding out in their cars eating take aways. Lol! As far as I know eating in your car amounts to eating in public as well. Not sure it's recommended as an ok thing to do in Ramadan. Its not recommended but if your hungry+thirsty and far from home what other option do you have? To my knowledge the only options are to find a place where you can eat in or go home. Eating in public can result in problems for adults at least.

Most of the places in Internet/Media City have been open in previous years. I remember years ago when we always had Ramadan lunches at Hard Rock Cafe!
