The story unfolds within the Arab expatriate community living in London. It will be
recognizable to anyone who's ever lived in another country, and will offer a glimpse of another world to those who've never left the Middle East. - At the center of the show is an Arab restaurant located in the heart of London. The restaurant brings
together two sides of the Arab experience. One hand there are 'The Princes' - those
