Trip to Dearborn

[John Deere]

Well today I went on my jaunt to Dearborn, for those of you who dont
know, it is the second largest population of arabic people in the
world, the first, obviously being the middle east. Well first I went to
BNN import, and I was told that They couldnt sell to me because I wasnt
a wholesaler, even though I called them and specifically asked if I
could, and they said yes. Besides the point.... Anyway so I ended up
going to a shop down the street, and It was seriously a hookah candy
store. huge blass jars of ma'assel that you could take as much or
little as you wanted, bowls of grommets, and a mountain of Al Fakher
boxes. The person who I was with knew the owner, so he cut me a deal.
I wish I had brought more money! EXCEPT they were out of the Golden Esk
Apple, which is what I actually went there for. They said three weeks
till the shipment from UAE comes in. damn. well I ended up with some
bahraini apple and some new kind of double apple I thought id try. he
said "here my friend, try dis, dis is de best" so I got some, I'll let
you know how it is. And I finally found a grommet that fits perfect!
MUSHRAT: I picked up your melon you wanted, pm me your address and I'll
pop it in the mail tomorrow.

Review time tonight right? Well I didnt know Dearborn was the second
largest Arabic population. About the only thing I know is that we have
our pipeline running through there. ANR Pipeline to be exact. I work
for the parrent company El Paso Corp.

Yep. It's called Havana Two Apple. I have never heard of it before, maybe someone else has?

[John Deere]

It was funny, when I went to bnn, the woman at the desk was like "you
smoke Argeela?" she was very surprised that we were looking for
ma'assel. She called the owner and was like
"(arabicarabicarabicAMERICANarabicarabicarabic)" Then she told us to go
down the street. I saw a lot of nice hookahs when I was walking through
the warehouse though!

Oh man, I'm envious of you! What a road trip! About as good as going to Bass Pro Shop. It's been 4 years since I last saw a hookah outside of my home! Yes, I've heard of Havana. They sell it at hookahook. I've always been curious about it. Thanks for the review.

I wish I could be more help, but I dont know the area well, but its
somewhere in the vicinity of W. warren ave. and Greenfield Road,
possibly. Good luck!

[John Deere]

Oh, and If you cant find it, go on the bnn import export website and
find out their address, then just go there first and ask them(its like
2 minutes away from the other store), thats how we found out about it.

I would guess the store is "Royal Smokers Argeleh and molasses" bought me a nice heavy duty syrian hookah there yesterday, it fits the posted description of the store to a T. they are at 14216 W. Warren Ave Dearborn, MI. 48126. If you go to this "hookah candy store"  do yourself a favor and make time for "The New Yasmin Bakery" about a block up the street for some great food. Joe

Man, that sounds awesome. I actually found an international grocery store just a block down my street that sold Al Amir & other brands familiar brands in which I can't remember right now... It's great, I found a supply! hah. but I woluld love to go to that Hookah candy store, sounds awesome!

please tell us how the double apple havana smokes. i have some of their special apple (which is supposed to be like a double apple but with a less strong anise taste and stronger apple taste) i havent tried it yet (my hookah is still being shipped from college). i would like to live vicariously through your experience
