Hoo Haa
Editorial
Hoo haa is very well designed, with changing contemporary finishes separating the different areas. At the front there's an open lounge area with low-slung couches (dangerous for the ladies wearing short skirts and drinking cocktails!). Centrally placed is a large wooden island bar with stools round the side, and a generous standing area for busy nights. Alongside there's cushioned seating and tables for small groups, while the back dining area is perfect for large sit-down groups. There's also a rather cute rooftop garden section out back.
The Italian-style food menu is rather affordable, especially given the locale - although the Windsor end of Chapel Street is still in the final throws of gentrification, these guys are sensible enough to keep their prices low. But don't let the price fool you: the meals and drinks here are high quality. Cocktails start as low as $13 for the Hoo haa house classic, the Love Juice, which comes with fresh strawberry coulis, passionfruit pulp, Wyborowa vodka and finished with a splash of Chandon.
The general feel of Hoo haa is modern with little exotic chic; overall it feels very spacious and it's ideal for parties or small functions - especially if you plan to have dinner before moving outside in summer to the rooftop, or down the front to sloth around the wood heater in winter.

Went there on Wednesday for Parma night. The waiter was really chatty and made us feel really comfortable. It was a nice night so we sat outside and enjoyed the weather. The drinks were fast and the parma was HUGE! Great night...
