Macau: Food ideas

By Cubie - August 10, 2024


We reached Macau in the evening, unexpectedly it was quite tricky to find dinner at around 8 PM by the time we got to the hotel. We had an afternoon flight out from Macau Airport, so that gave us 3 breakfasts, 3 dinners and 3 lunches. We had a late breakfast on day 2 and skipped lunch. On the last day, we did take away from a small shop for lunch and ate at the airport. 

Overall, we enjoyed our meals in Macau. Total cost were for 4 adults and 2 kids. 


Café Nam Ping 南屏雅敘
G/F, 85-85A Rua de Cinco de Outubro, Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro
新馬路十月初五日街85-85A號地舖

Sis and I ordered a sardine bun and "Nam Peng" sandwich to share. Total MOP 270. 





Yee Shun Milk Company 義順鮮奶
新馬路新馬路381號
381 Av. de Almeida Ribeiro, Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro

We didn't visit the store in Hong Kong but had a late breakfast here in Macau. I had a basic luncheon meat egg instant noodles. We also shared the steamed milk dessert. From memory, we had the steamed double layer milk and the other ginger milk. Total MOP 378. 




Man Kee 文記咖啡麵食
G/F, Edf. Wang Fat, R. de Camilo Pessanha, Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro
新馬路庇山耶街宏發樓地舖

We wanted to try a different pork chop bun, plus this was near to the hotel and the initial shop we said is only a takeaway store which we got for lunch. We ordered Ovaltine crispy toast and peanut butter pork chop polo bun. This cannot be daily food. Even when I read the menu I could feel that it is cholesterol inducing. Total MOP 178.





Wong Kun 皇冠小館
There are a few branches

We wanted crab congee and found this eatery. We didn't know they were popular when we went especially since it was a late lunch and the shop was fairly empty. The noodles were made with traditional bamboo noodle pressing techniques and melded with fresh duck eggs. Total MOP 484. 

Shrimp roe stir noodles

Noodles with fishball and soup

Rice with pork chop and onion

Sea crab congee, half portion


Food Truck Company
26 R. de Nossa Sra. do Amparo, Macao
關前後街26號, Macau, Macau

We were lucky to find this shop for dinner. Most of the shops seemed to have stopped dinner service by the time we got to the hotel and dropped our luggage. The owner is a Portuguese who has been living in Macau for many years. He noticed that we wanted to try all the food so he served them as 'petiscos'. Total MOP 274. 




Pastéis de Bacalhau (cod fish cake)



Peking Dumplings 北京水餃
新馬路新填巷5A號地舖
G/F, 5A Travessa do Aterro Novo, Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro

This was a fairly small shop and there were no empty table when we got there. The service was very prompt though. There is a menu right outside the shop and the owner came out, gave a piece of paper and pen to my sister and asked her to write down our orders. He knows his stuff because among all of us, sis' command of Chinese is the best. We got a steamed, fried and pan-fried dumplings - one of each and deep fried mini mantou. Total MOP 125.
 






Belos Tempos 老地方
新馬路福隆新街10號
10 Rua da Felicidade, Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro

This was our last dinner in Macau. Total MOP 382.

Beer & xarope de figo

Arroz de Marisco

Portuguese chicken rice

Cod fish spaghetti


Chao Ji Cheung Fun Rice Roll 超記腸粉
MacaoR. de Camilo Pessanha, 28號, 號地下

This was initially our choice for breakfast but on arrival we noticed it was only a takeaway store. So after breakfast, we came to takeaway. I borrowed these photos from my sis' FB. We spent all our cash here which wasn't a lot left after saving what we needed for the bus fares. 




Lord Stow's Bakery
There are a few branches but we got this from Taipa Village. This was inhaled very promptly. MOP 109 for a box of six. 



Pastéis de Chaves 酥富匙千層牛肉酥
There are a few branches as well. On our walks we saw a bakery and wanted a snack and got 2 egg tart and 1 coconut tart. What we didn't know was that this bakery is famous for Pastel de Chaves, yes, dumb mistake given the literal name but I didn't notice any Chinese signboard. The tarts we got were tasty though. Total MOP 30. 



Vegan Lovers 愛心素食店
28號 R. dos Ervanarios, Macao

We came out of the Food Truck Company and saw dessert in coconut yoghurt. Total MOP 95.



Not pictured were also many snacks and almonds cookies samples that we had. 


Side note: I also 'stole' the deep fried mini mantou photo from sis' FB.
