While the above sounds ridiculous, but its TRUE. So, Recently i discovered a place which do not charge customers VAT and have retained their original pre-vat prices. What !!! ^ ^

Hold your horses for now, as you are anticipating the Restaurant's name to be disclosed already. While the restaurant remains to be targeting low income group. But you will see it surrounded by people from all walks of life occasionally spotting Dubai Police Patrol vehicles too for take aways.

"Alain Highway Restaurant", strategically located restaurant on Dubai/Alain highway, decided to to take the 5% hit of VAT on themselves instead of passing it to their customers, well alteast for the products that i ordered :P

My conversation that i can't forget which left me speechless with the waiter on upon making the payment.

Me - "How much do i have to pay including VAT, with a smile on my face"
Waiter - "Which VAT, our prices hasn't changed".
