Abu Dhabi
This upbeat joint at the Crowne Plaza Abu Dhabi is a favourite for its tasty fare, which hopscotches from Japan to Singapore and China to Thailand. Whether you're in the mood for a mango salad, Vietnamese-style noodles or Peking duck, it's got you covered. It's all fresh and flavourful, though typically spicy dishes such as laksa have, disappointingly, been seriously toned down.
There's a second branch at the InterContinental Abu Dhabi.
