Skye,
If he is in Bin Mahmoud, he is near what we westerners refer to as "cholesterol corner". Within 5mins driving distance he can get to a KFC, Pizza Hut, McDonalds, Burger King, Applebees, Chili's, Starbucks, Baskin Robins, Subway, etc..

He is also near The Center, which has the best import supermarket in town (Mega Mart). Although being a bit pricey, he can get all sorts of western / asian / aussie foods that you cant get anywhere else.

Tell the guy to walk out his front door and he can run into a restraunt virtually in any direction from where he lives.
