              Its not a sandwich - but I went to lunch with one of the Saudi chaps today....
              A pale soup - very thin, without any "bits" looked a bit like washing up water... but tasted quite nice in a "well it has a taste but I am not sure what it is" way..... (a bit like the juice in Japanese Miso soup but more spicy)
              followed closely by two huge plates of savoury rice (not quite a risotto, not quite a byriani)
              1 topped with some form of "Char Broiled" hunks of "Beef" that had been marinated in herbs/spices etc....
              1 topped with some form of barbequed Chicken marinated in other herbs/spices
              and a couple of bowls of a lemony yoghurty thing and a chilli/tomato sauce

              We both got stuck in like trenchermen but couldn't finish it all.... and it only cost 50 Riyals including a couple of cans of coke each.... thats about a tenner!

              Tasted good.... and beats albino nob.... although if I get the squits later I might change my opinion!

                the first dish you mention was for washing your fingers in after you had consumed the others. Sounds like they pass the bowl round in this joint rather than providing a fresh one per table.

                    Funny you should mention that... because they do traditionally eat with their fingers (only the right hand) and they had a sink in the corner so you could wash your hands before eating..... and a seperate sink on the way out (with scented hand "tonic" and various creams and stuff (as well as soap))
                    ie my host (followed by me obviously) washed his hands before lunch at one sink.... and then at a different sink afterwards and sprayed smelly stuff on after.....

                    The funniest moment was actually watching him trying to get his mobile out of his Thobe to answer it during lunch ie with wet sticky greasy hands trying not to touch the crisp white cotton of his Thobe or get greasy paw prints on his Blackberry!!

                      That's just being greedy.
