Naam Thai Restaurant Grand Lapa Resort Macau 灆泰國菜餐廳
The plane landed in Macau on time but we were stranded at the airport. The weather was terribly bad with the typhoon looming.

杜荣记美食 (Du Rong Ji Mei Shi)

Old Streets I Have Walked
I took a quiz online “Which famous quote describes your life?” and got “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”.

Taking a break from my Korean trip posts which I needed to sort out some addresses (hopefully), here’s one from Macau that is short and sweet! Snake meat – Short and sweet.

Ristorante IL Teatro 帝雅廷意大利餐廳 @ Wynn Macau 永利澳門酒店
I had the privilege to visit Wynn Macau’s fine-dining Italian cuisine, Ristorante Il Teatro, twice.

Food was almost perfect when I … Continue reading

Portuguese Cuisine @ Guincho a Galera 葡国餐廳 (Macau)
It is safe to say that most people who come to Macau loves to gamble, but what does one do if one does not embrace the glitzy neon and bright baize, like me? Well, in a country of high rollers, there’s always the designer shopping and then there’s the fine dining. I opted for the … Continue reading
Fusion Cuisine @ Smile House 笑面府 (Macau)
I was quite excited when my friends decided to go to an Italian/French/Western fusion restaurant away from the hustle and bustle of Macau’s ritzy area. The suggestion came from a “picky eater” so I was quite hopeful what Smile House could offer me. Smile House is a very small family-run restaurant with a seating capcity … Continue reading

Because of its close proximity and convenience, I had lunch there thrice. I had some repeated items with different friends … Continue reading
