I thought it was, "Where to hand out meat, people?"  |

| I presumed, possibly incorrectly, that the OP meant " Where can I hang out and meet people" ? |

Check out Lonely Planet and Virtual Tourist---they both have ideas on things to do and see in Salalah. |

| The Oasis club is a popular hangout for expats in Salalah, though you will need to take a cab as it is in Raysut harbour, just outside of the city. You don't have to drink alchohol there and there are the usual bar games including a full on bowling alley. Aso there are some good coffee shops in the new Salalah Mall and Lulu's. |

If OP is only looking at places to socialize in Salalah, then I'll concur with tuzlachap about the Oasis club. However, it has gone somewhat downhill in quality and service since new management took over last year.
The resorts in town (Hilton, the Crown, and the Rotanna), and the Marriot in Mirbat are popular hangouts for expats, but people mostly stick to their own cliques here in Salalah. There's not a large expat community here as there is in Muscat, which not only has more amenities popular with the expat community, but also more social networking groups online like internations. |
