Macau Food Overview
10 Iconic Restaurants
There’s only one word to describe the 10 places on this list – institutions.
They’re not just restaurants in Macau; they are in some ways Macau itself, the very spirit and soul of a city embedded in the cracks and creaks of blue wall azulejos, in the faint falling chalk dust of neatly written Chinese characters listing dishes that have remained unchanged for decades, in the sure but steady gait of an aging waitress clearing up the last few tables of the night, her life’s work given in service of moving plates and bowls.
Chef's Corner
For travellers with tighter purse strings and/or a larger sense of adventure, you absolutely must try Macau’s magnificent street food.
