More About Macau...

Food. Food. Food.
Day 1 - We started off our binging early in the morning. We each had a McDonald's set at the airport. We ate more on the plane....although it was only AirAsia's nasi lemak. So-so only lah. Why the rave about their nasi lemak I also donno. We arrived in Macau, check-in and then proceeded to the Food Court at The Venetian to have something light. We each had a Tann-Lai (Steamed Milk) and shared a not-so-nice Siew-Loong-Pau as our teatime snack. For dinner, we went to Sau-Soon-Kai. We had sharksfin, steamed garoupa, nice vege, roast pigeon and black pepper steak. Yummy.....

Day 2 - We woke up late...and thus had brunch rather than breakfast. Went to Taipa Village to have the famous Crab Porridge...made from 3 types of crabs - sea crab, mud crab and egg crab (kou-hai). It was indeed very very good and of course, cholestrol packed! We also had fried frog legs, prawns in salty egg yolk, broccoli with clams! For dinner, we had portuguese food. Was very very yummy. We had pig ear salad, clams in coriander sauce, beef stew, grilled sardines, chicken curry, seafood rice and serradura (Portuguese dessert). I only managed to take a picture of the Pig Ear Salad, as we were so quick to eat the others when it came.

Day 3 - We had brunch at the Blue Frog in the Hotel....I had a breakfast burrito which was HUGE but good. Luckily the girls had some of my order! On the way to the St.Paul's ruins, we had some more snacks like the Pork bun (this one not very nice...) and more Tann-Lai. For dinner, we had buffet BBQ at the Macau Fisherman's Wharf.



Day 4 - We went to Taipa Village's Tai Lei Loi Kei for Pork Noodles and Pork Bun. Though we didn't wait for the famous freshly baked buns which is only sold at 3 pm, the one we had with the normal breakfast bun was also very very good! We had some beer and waited for a friend, and somehow time flew by so quickly that we couldn't have lunch at the Noodle Bar. Ended up eating at the airport. Not so nice lor... :-( but what to do? Had hot dogs on the plane....

We also had various snacks in-between... Almond Cookies, Lou-Poh-Paeng, Pineapple pastry, Portuguese Tarts.......

The Venetian

We stayed at The Venetian... I think it's okay lah...
