Oman - much more old Gulf

Hospitality Show, Muscat – whistle stop, quite small but very civilized

Quieter than bustling Dubai, visited the Hospitality Show – the country and the city set out to appeal to the discerning traveller – this is emphatically not Benidorm…

And great to run into fellow Brit – Richard Bias – Exec Head Chef at the gorgeous Chedi Hotel & Spa.

You just need an excuse to visit….but anyone with a sweet tooth should be aware they will put on pounds…great display of deserts.
