HAZEL PARK, Mich. \u2013 Chefs with eastern European roots and others from metro Detroit\u2019s hospitality scene are launching a new restaurant in Hazel Park on Oct. 24.<\/p>\n

Bar Gabi<\/a> from the husband-and-wife team Gabriel and Gabriela Botezan, is opening Bar Gabi in the former Framebar and Frame restaurant on John R.<\/p>\n

Bar Gabi celebrates modern Romanian cuisine. Its website describes the atmosphere as \u201cRomanian Blood + American Spirit,\u201d promising dishes and drinks that pay tribute to their roots while pushing tradition forward. <\/p>\n

Bar Gabi\u2019s menu includes the Botezan\u2019s takes on Romanian dishes, including a breaded Tomahawk Schnitzel bone-in pork chop with smoked paprika and mustard greens, Transylvanian Goulash, the \u201cVaca Moo\u201d steak with Hungarian peppers and hand-cut fries, rotating pastas, and more. Desserts include Romanian Cremes, Albinita honey cake, and tiramisu.<\/p>\n

The cocktail program is led by Kenneth Laat and includes non-alcoholic options. The space was designed by Colin Tury and includes framed embroidery from the Botezans\u2019 family in Romania.<\/p>\n

The adjacent former Frame space is available for booking for private events, and Bar Gabi says it plans to eventually host special events like chef collaborations there.<\/p>\n

You can find Bar Gabi at 23839 John R Rd., Hazel Park.<\/p>\n
