    Dear Visitor,

    Time and again visitors tell methat the choice of dining optionsin Abu Dhabi is nothing shortof bewildering I think they arereferring to the sheer volume anddiversity of restaurants.

    This booklet is aimed at makingthe choice a little less bewildering because I can promise thatthe number of restaurants will

    not decrease indeed with ourhospitality portfolio growing, it canonly increase.

    What we are doing here, is giveyou more information on which tobase your dining choices, though Iwould urge you to sample as much

    diversity as you can while in AbuDhabi. There is no doubt that weare spoilt for choice when it comesto diversity of cuisine, as well as thestandard of food and service andlong may it continue.

    These days you can choose to

    sample authentic Emirati cuisinein a fine dining setting, take indinner while you cruise Abu DhabiCorniche, visit trendy, brand-name restaurants and award-winning outlets that have arrivedin Abu Dhabi from the worldsentertainment capitals or relax at

    beachside barbeques while takingin superb Arabian Gulf views.

    There are an increasing numberof restaurants which let you dineoutside during our superb wintermonths and, of course, our towncentres offer great value outletswhere you can relish the cuisine ofa different nation every night of theweek.

    And for those for whom food reallyis a passion, we have an annualculinary festival Gourmet AbuDhabi which I can personallyrecommend. Over 16 days andnights the worlds best chefs andgastronomic experts arrive inAbu Dhabi to join our expandinggroup of hospitality professionalsin cooking up nightly feasts, and

    staging master classes to passon their valued knowledge, andabsorb some of our own. You cankeep up-dated on this fabulousevent on gourmetabudhabi.ae Ihope to see you there.
