Hi
The utmost priority is to respect the people who are fasting, you can eat and cook anything in private as fred mentioned. Usually offices have dedicated areas where people who are not fasting can have food in private.

T&R
Thank you!
Sorry to "invade" this thread, but how does it work for visitors? (Lond story short; my husband moved 4 weeks ago and we will be visiting him next week, during Ramadan).

Are restaurants (or at least some of them) open in the Malls and in public spaces? I'll have my little daughter (2.5 years) with me so skipping lunch won't go well with her...

I am not expecting Friday brunch or anything like it though! ;)
I heard that some of the hotels will be open with permission from government. For kids, I hope there will be exceptions.

Forget the malls or public spaces as nothing will be open, however most of the hotels will have somewhere, out of public view, open for non-fasting guests/visitors. Also if your husband is a member of the British Club or the Dilmun Club or the Rugby Club, then no problem as with minor restrictions they operate as normal.

Please avoid eating and drinking in public during this holy month. You have to respect the ones fasting, moreover its not allowed. I believe this applies to smoking in public too - not to sure but i heard from a friend its a no no. Drinking water or other liquids in your car isnt allowed either during this holy month.

Ramadan Kareem to all聽 :)

The big trick is not being rude, and it would be extremely rude to eat in front of those who are fasting.
Showing respect for the locals is always a good move and something that will make life easier for expats in general.

The law might well forbid things but a sense of right and wrong is better.

Basically, be nice to people.

A colleague informed me playing loud music in your car isnt favorable either.聽 So if you have those fantastic speakers and a banging sub woofer in your car, you may want to turn the volume quite low聽 to respect the holy month.聽 聽:)

and the rest of the year .. please.

I suspect the same goes for home stereo systems and the TV as well. Would local posters confirm, please?
