Even though its been the longest time since I last did a food review, it doesn't mean that I haven't been eating-out :-) Been meeting new friends, been busy with work ... and best of all, family!
Here's our first visit to Certo, which turned out to be a really fun evening with OK and DL :-)
Located: Souk Qaryat Al Beri, at the "3 bridges" area of Abu Dhabi. Its located in between Fairmont/Traders and Shangri-La.
Tel: +971 2 558 1161
Best thing about Italian restaurants (besides pasta!) ... definitely the bread. Nice!
Lots of seafood on the night ... Seafood platter, with half-baked lobster, and a delicious sea-bass too.
Lobster pasta anyone? Yummmms!
Veal Ossobucco ... Tender, delicious and lovely mediterranean style veges and potatoes alongside.
Would we return? Yes, good food, good service and nice ambience though I do question how it won a "Time Out Abu Dhabi" romantic-category award. Its more a family restaurant for me!
ps - Yes, its on the Entertainer (Buy one, get one free - I have started a new tag/label now for restaurants which have this offer in UAE). We had 6 Peronis between us, along with a plate of fries for V, and we only paid 125 AED (Roughly RM$100) per person.

Maison Sucre cupcakes rock!
We like cupcakes, but have been dissapointed with most of the offerings in our home of Abu Dhabi so far ... that is until we stumbled onto Maison Sucre. Great service, really nice shop (you can also have coffee here it seems), and wonderful cupcakes!
