New Asian Restaurant in Abu Dhabi - Li Jiang


Today I have VERY exciting news for my Abu Dhabi readers! A new Southeast Asian restaurant has recently opened at the Ritz Carleton Hotel (Link) - Li Jiang.  It's delicious! FINALLY a restaurant opens with the same high standards of food and service as Dubai restaurants. What is great about this place is that it is usually full, and the chef is quite accommodating to any dietary requests you may have. (I went with a Vegetarian friend and he created a yummy tofu dish for her that wasn't even on the menu!)

The restaurant is very Asian with dark wood and red fabric covering the walls. 
There is an open kitchen where you can see everything the chefs are cooking. 
The entrance is super cool with a hallway made up of lit glass bottles. 

There is a really nice bar area with a live DJ 
It is usually packed on weekends

The Menu consists of traditional Asian foods like dumplings, bok choy, & noodles. 
It also features a lot of decadent fusion items like wasabi prawns, lobster rolls, and 
crispy duck rolls (YUM!)

Everything is mouthwatering and super fresh - 
My favourites are the dumplings, crispy duck rolls, and wasabi prawns starter
 (I could eat the whole thing on my own!)


If you like Asian food, then you MUST try Li Jiang- it's so worth it!
My recommendation? Go with a large group of friends and share many dishes 

Have you tried Li Jiang? Did you like it?
