Dear all, Introducing a change to the mobile pages, we accidentally knocked out the normal listings… If one was looking for food in jumeirah, or any in , it would end up with a 404 error. Our bad, sorry for the inconvencience. All is fixed now!

Enough with the boring faceless comment avatars, now we include a few new avatars to be used when putting a comment. You can choose between a few faces and monuments. If you have any further suggestions, please let us know. Until then, happy holidays from down under! Thanks, Michael

Hi all, We fixed a little bug that appeared when you would click the website link of one of our places on our mobile site. We noticed errors in the redirections. But these are fixed now, sorry for the inconvenience caused. Thanks, Michael
