Location: Crowne Plaza (Hamdan St)
One of the finest resto-lounges in Abu Dhabi, this newish Indonesian restaurant has a hint of a Buddah Bar feel to it. The dark earth-tone paint and woodwork inside, low slung tables and chairs, and the chill-out asian flavored house music in the background give Cho Gao a very nice vibe.
Daily happy hour from 4-7 pm with half-price drinks draws in a fun-loving after work crowd, most of whom stay on to sample the wonderful array of foods on offer. The steamed veg dim sum is to die for, but I'd recommend asking for a small dish of ground garlic in soya sauce for dipping. Most dishes are in the normal hotel range of 30-50 Dhs, and they have a very wide selection of bizarre cocktails.
Well worth a visit, particularly if you make use of the happy hour in advance of eating.
