Crowne Plaza Abu Dhabi launches two new restaurants in winter 2009-10

Both restaurants will be located on the ground floor at the Crowne Plaza's Hamdan Street entrance adding two new outstanding dining options to Abu Dhabi's vibrant restaurant scene.

CHO GAO:

A first in the UAE, CHO GAO which means "Rice Market" in Chinese, is a re-imagining of the classic Asian restaurant. A 21st century eatery combined with the creativity, energy and senses of ancient Asian culture. When you visit CHO GAO, you will experience an adventurous culinary journey through Asia with a menu that takes its inspiration from Thailand, Vietnam & China.

The heart of a CHO GAO restaurant is an escape for all the senses, a unique Asian experience offering all the surprise ingredients built around the contrasting tastes and smells found in east Asian streets & their unique culture.

With its relaxed inviting atmosphere, CHO GAO cleverly combines a contemporary chic bar that compliments CHO GAO's casual dining style. A perfect escape from the working day, CHO GAO promises to be 'the' destination in Abu Dhabi.

Spacca Napoli:

An Italian restaurant with a contemporary influence. Spacca Napoli has an innovative style, from its deliciously different culinary delights right through to its stylish appointments. Besides the innovative Italian cuisine, the most arresting aspect of Spacca Napoli is its view out on to Hamdan Street, you can watch the world go by in the warm comfort of old Tuscany.

As the sun begins to set on our fair city, it's time to head indoors, with two floors of Italian rustic styling's and a extensive menu all set around Spacca Napoli's Metre Long Pizza Oven, which offers you the unique chance to order a pizza large enough to feed the Abu Dhabi Harlequins. Along with home made pasta, seafood dishes and Italian classics, Spacca Napoli will have you coming back time and time again.
