Sometimes, it's a good thing to just pack your bags and go somewhere without thorough planning. That's what we did, and we stumbled upon this casual southern Chinese restaurant, right in the heart of the gorgeous Wynn Palace. Don't get intimidated by the gold tables though, their pricing is surprisingly affordable. 😄
Barbecued Pork Spare Ribs with Honey Osmanthus Dressing 98.00MOP or 12.25USD approx. What it lacks in the fall of the bone department, it makes up for it's depth of flavor. The use of osmanthus is genius, as it gives off a wonderful fragrance that's totally addicting.
Mixed vegetables 68.00MOP or 8.50USD approx. Not your typical mixed veggies. I love the addition of lotus root (yes, the one known to trigger trypophobia 😁), as it gives a nice crunch and just elevates this dish to a whole new level.
Roast Crispy Pork Belly 108.00MOP or 13.50USD. It's such a simple dish, but it's the bomb! I specially fell in love with how succulent the meat was, and don't get me started about the crunch squares of skin. Even though this can't beat our local lechon kawali, this is nevertheless a great contender. Yum!
Asparagus 78.00MOP or 9.75USD approx. We actually ordered a few veggie side dishes to balance out the sinful orders, and I'm glad we did. Red 8's veggie game is strong, no overcooked asparagus stalks here.
After lunch, I played a few rounds of casino. LOL! I kid. I don't gamble, and yes, I'm boring like that! We just went around inside Wynn Palace to admire the gorgeous displays and architecture of the place. After that, we headed straight to The Venetian and were awed by its beauty. Is there seriously anything not jaw dropping in Macau? Unfortunately, we were just there for a day trip, which was obviously not enough time to go around, but maybe next time I'll have more time to spare. Where are your favorite eats in Macau? Do let me know, and see you on my next pig out session.
