Have a smoke~

I tried this the other night at an Arabian couple's place - our neighbor. We had the strawberry flavor. It feels like cigarette smoking, but much more fun and I hope less harmful to the lungs - not too sure about this! I found a very nice article describing how it works, so enjoy :) (BTW you should be able to try this too in Singapore's Arab street!!)

"Famous Middle Eastern long, brass water pipes with glass base are one of the most popular spare-time pleasures for many Arabs. Almost everyone has a nargillah at home to smoke with family or friends. Nice, better quality argille are also used as a decoration, proudly displayed by owner. In street cafeterias one can order a coffee or tea and a shisha. Usual choice for a pipe (nargilla) order would be a very light tobacco mixed with aromatic fruits - apple, cherry, etc. You can see people spending hours over nargillah and a drink of tea or coffee. Very pleasant, relaxing experience helps socializing and making new contacts. If someone offers a nargillah to you, you can be sure of his friendly intentions towards you. The smoke itself is very light and pleasant, even for those who don't normally smoke! Specially constructed water pipe additionally filters the smoke through water, and cools it down in long brass tubes, offering rather a tasty "dessert" than a smoking experience."
