It is impossible to know whether this post at Al-Emirati.com on the victims of the recent Air India disaster is intended to be some appalling attempt at humour or satire, but by every single measure it is absolutely beyond the pale:
Not really. Not only do I not care if the victims "rest in peace" but it seems to me that they are, rather, resting in pieces!
I am of course talking about flight IX 812 from Dubai to Balglapour (or some other hell hole, they're all the same) that recently crashed (click here)
I know I know. Mean, blah blah. The way I see it is as follows. The UAE is (about) 50% Indians, Something that I, and 90% of all other Emaratis see as a bad thing.
This plane, carrying Indians who live and work here, means that 160 indians that clog up the roads, cause accidents, fail code inspections at Indian restaurants, speak like this guy, and are a general drag on the security of the UAE, wont be coming back. That is a very GOOD thing!
I can only pray that this happens every week!
Sadly, we'll probably have 160 new VISAs for 160 new Indians issued in 3 hours... And the authority in charge of this will flaunt that, as if it's a good thing.
Fancy watching a local radio DJ take on a top dog lawyer, a mum face off against at PT, a stay-at-home dad throw punches at a fitness junkie, or a journalist face-off against a PR director? Here’s how…
Back in February, Fighting Fit Dubai – a Dubai-based amateur boxing competition –made a callout to residents of the UAE to sign up for the third season on a reality TV show. After a whopping 300 applicants, the show’s producers whittled the ‘talent’ down to 24 contestants who have been involved in rigorous twice-daily training for almost a month.
You can catch all the blood, sweat and tears of the past few weeks at espn.com/fightingfitdubai, which has been documenting their intense journeys.
The show culminates in a heroic Fight Night showdown on April 26 – and everyone’s invited. Taking place on the epic open air terrace of Zabeel House by Jumeirah, The Greens, a full line-up of boxing fights featuring the Fighting Fit Dubai Blue Team vs Red Team, will decide who be crowned champions in the live grand finale to Dubai’s own reality show.
Hosted by local radio personality Chris McHardy, the evening event will see roaring crowds entertained by DJ Tarik Omar, food and drinks stalls provided by Zabeel House by Jumeirah, The Greens, VIP tables on offer, all set against the spectacle of everyday Dubai residents taking to the boxing ring to literally fight for glory.
“The atmosphere on Fight Night is electric,” explains Zoe Griffiths, Fighting Fit Dubai’s Exec Producer. “There is something truly gripping about watching a boxing match. But, knowing that the people in the ring only pulled on their boxing gloves a mere six weeks ago is totally captivating.”
Tickets start at Dhs250 and are available for purchase via Platinumlist. No black tie necessary and over 21s only.
Zabeel House by Jumeirah The Greens, April 26, Fri from 6pm. Tel: (04) 4573212. espn.com/fightingfitdubai and dubai.platinumlist.net

Salt Bae’s Dubai restaurant Nusr-et in Jumeirah Four Seasons packs out every night with meat-lovers eager to get a glimpse of the salt-sprinkling chef at work.
But if you can’t manage to bag a reservation at his Jumeirah restaurant, it looks like you’ll soon be able to get your hands on a Salt Bae burger, which looks like it might be coming soon to DIFC.
Taking to Instagram, the Turkish-born chef shared a series of Instagram stories with his 20 million followers appearing to sign the lease on a brand new restaurant.
“Saltbae burger will be opening soon in DIFC Dubai. Signatures are done” he wrote on the first post.

After posting a series of stories signing the contract alongside DIFC officials. Salt Bae, real name Nusret Gökçe, then headed out to the centre of Gate Village, sharing further snaps to say that the new restaurant would be open ‘after three months’. So it doesn’t seem like Salt Bae fans will have long to wait to get their hands on his salt-sprinkled burgers.
He finished the string of posts by thanking the DIFC team, and the hashtag #saltbae burger.
So, will Salt Bae call his burger joint #saltbae burger? Where in DIFC will the restaurant open? And, will it attract as many celebrities as his Four Seasons restaurant?
Nusr-et Dubai has been frequented by stars including Paul Pogba, Rio Ferdinand, DJ Snake and Leonardo DiCaprio and even Vice President of the UAE and Dubai ruler HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum has been seen dining at the famous hotspot.
Only time will tell, but we can’t wait to hear more.
