The website is where I tell my Macau stories. The community is where everyone else tells theirs.
Fifteen years ago, I began writing casino reviews for the Wizard of Macau. That assignment eventually led me to create the website you’re reading now, the Maven of Macau.
Today, the website covers far more than casinos. You’ll find restaurant reviews, food guides, travel guides, itineraries, local history, interviews and stories from across Macau.
Now I’d like to hear yours.
Whether you’ve lived in Macau for decades, visit every year, or simply enjoy the city from afar, the Maven of Macau Community is a place to share recommendations, memories, photographs, questions and ideas with people who care about Macau as much as you do.
Whether you’re looking for the best Portuguese restaurant, reminiscing about a long-lost casino, sharing an old photograph, asking for travel advice, or simply enjoying a conversation with fellow Macau enthusiasts, you’ll find like-minded people here.

Help Shape Maven
Some of the best stories begin with a simple conversation.
Remember a casino that’s long gone? Have an old photograph tucked away? Know a restaurant everyone else has forgotten? Have an idea for an article?
I’d love to hear about it.
The community is a place to preserve Macau’s past while discovering what’s happening today.
Macau has given me countless stories over the past fifteen years. I hope you’ll help tell the next ones.
