This is another kind of canteen where you meet Macanese ambience and food made for locals. It is also close to Cantina da APOMAC, on same street. The only no is the limited menu. I tryed Minchi, minced meat with fried potatoes served with plain rice.
I was looking for Macanese food, and I just went to one of the places where it is supposed to find this food. I must say I liked very much the ambience and the service, but I didn't find the food genuine. Maybe I am wrong, but this restaurant is just for tourists. Food was a little tasty, but a small portion and I noted it was an adaption of traditional Macanese food.I tryed Porco balichão, a kind of Pork meat made with a traditional Macanese sauce, and served with plain rice. I was looking for Tacho, a kind of cooked mixed meats and vegetables with Chinese sausages, but it was not available at the moment.
On the3rd floor of Mercado de São Domingos - São Domingos Market you will find traditional Chinese food sold in stalls. Menu is only available in Chinese, but there are some pictures to help you choose. This is not the cheapest place to taste Chinese food, but you will find this food very tasty. Early in the morning, at the corner of Rua da Palha - the street leading to Saint Paul ruins - there are, at least, two cheap street restaurants where you can try congee and dumplings.Around the Sé - Cathedral there is a street going to Praça do Leal Senado crowded with cheap Chinese eateries. Just align and choose your stucks.
I was introduced in this canteen by a Macanese friend who told me here I could meet the real Macanese ambience and food. In fact, it was a great place for me as I could talk to many interesting Macanese people. I found the food made for locals, not for tourists.I liked the service and the ambience. This is a place I recommend for those who are looking for real Macanese ambience. There were some options for the Prato do dia - Dish of the day. I was indecise between carne de porco bafassá - Roast pork meat with saffron and Raizes de lotus com carne de porco - Lotus roots with pork meat. At the end I elected Raizes de lotus com carne de porco, and I was not disappointed with this dish.Prato do dia includes: soup, main course, dessert, coffee or tea. Non-Members pay 50 patacas.
In this Café you can find a wide variety of pastries, namely the traditional Portuguese egg tart (Pastel de nata). There are many places sending this traditional Portuguese cake, but here it is not very sweet. This cake was also exported to China, where is well appreciated. Pastel de nata.
We ordered rice, stir-fried beef with ginger and spring onions, stir-fried long beans, tofu and vegetable soup. The food was not bad (hubby liked the beans!) and prices were reasonable, the bill came up to less than 200 MOP.
A cute cafe tucked away in a side street. It serves coffee, sandwiches, and above all the world-famous Portugese egg custard tarts. According to locals, this is the place to go for these yummy tarts. Portugese egg tarts! Delicious egg custard in a flaky, melt-in-your-mouth crust. The top of the egg custard is slightly burned and carmelized. To die for.
The shop sells smooth Tau Fu Fah. The Tau Fu Fah is very smooth when put into mounth because its made by hand. The shop owner sells Tau Fu Fah more than 50 years. They not only serves hot and cold Tau Fu Fah, but also Tau Fu Sui which suitable to drink in the hot weather.
Pick up some freshly baked Portuguese egg tarts from one of the Lord Stow's bakeries which are dotted around Coloane Village & enjoy the steaming hot pastry as you walk by the seaside. Freshly baked Portuguese egg tarts coz it's the best you can find.
Venetian Macau Resort Hotel offers a wide selection of sumptuous dishes in their food court. The price as expected in this high-end hotel is expensive. There are numerous stalls to choose from offering Chinese, Japanese, Italian & other cuisines. Tempura. I just love Japanese food pure & simple.
