Dave has been making fun of me for the last week about that darn expensive Hammour fish. Tonight, we had UAE locals over for a visit and of course Dave had to bring out the ole Fish story. Hahahhaha, ya, many laughs at my expense. "You could buy two of those dresses and a pair of shoes for the price of that fish." ha.
But, I learned a couple fun facts. The Hammour FIsh is the most expensive fish in Dubai. It is pronounced Haam-moooooor (with a roll on the "r"). So expensive, that it has become a common cliche to say of big spenders or men of true wealth, "He is a Hammour."
Nice. That would have been good to know a week ago.
Also, the best part of the Hammour fish, is the meat in the cheek. Which in my case, got thrown in the trash because I thought it looked a tad repulsive.
Lacey,
ReplyDeleteYou can come over to Bahrain and eat all the Hammour you want. They would serve Hammour at Long John Silvers if they had one here.
