The Pork Shop

After living in Muscat for nearly 2 years, I had occasionally heard rumours of a pork shop in Ruwi. I just assumed it was all nonsense, but recently I have discovered that it actually does exist! And because there is not enough information on the Internet about little things like this here in Muscat, I've decided to blog about it.


The shop is opposite the LuLu's in Darsait. It's marked on Wikimapia here. The place is called Al Hamadi Fisheries, it's open from 8am to 1pm & 5pm to 9.30pm Sat-Thurs, Fridays it's open in the morning only. The shop sells frozen meat and fish, and in a side-room, it sells frozen pork products. They have frozen beef, lamb, mutton, duck, veal and tons of different types of frozen fish. They even have a The Week box there, which is usually well stocked (try finding a copy after Tuesday elsewhere!)



Oh, and the place is cheaper than Al Fair, which is always nice. And speaking of Al Fair, check out this last picture of some Ham in their MQ branch which was snapped recently.


It's rancid. It's green. Why is it still on sale?
