Food in Macau

Determined to revisit the places Yvonne brought me..
Manage to bring him to Coloanne town to try tht famous
portugese egg tarts by lord stow..
i recall the 1st time yvonne bought 1/2 dozens &
we sat across the stone table
eating the freshly baked tarts..
and the stone table still there :D

right side of lord Stow there's this resturant featured in the korean drama series

1st - 3rd day dessert @ Senado.

Our favourite 双皮炖奶
range ~ HKD 13-23


warm and cold taste different..
cold smell & taste sweeter than the warm ones..they've a variety of steamed milk.

According to hubby,the closest taste you can get like this in Singapore
is at Macau express in Spore Expo,
for me i tried Crystal jade style..
Conclusion: We still love Macau's style. :-)

Between lanes of the beautiful buildings in Senado..
i manage to locate my cravings..

My! the aromas of this biscuit mousse linger in my mouth..
ITS A MUST-TRY! HKD 58

their Irish coffee had a strong dosage of alcohol,
so check with staff the content of your drink order.

Homemade japanese don

Cook up a bento set before my trip,
at the same time trying to 'clear' away some ingredients.

Prep: 10mins ~ 20mins

1. Cook rice in pots, after cooked stir in some japanese vinegar/rice seasonings
2. Slice some onions for the eggs,
3. Fry the sliced onions, till you see some brownings/fragrant is out
beat 3 eggs and pour into pan.
4. (add cheese,if prefered) scoop up the eggs after 1/2mins
I prefered my eggs half cooked with some parts of the egg still runny.
5. heat up ham and unagi
6.lay them all onto the rice.
7. lastly, sliced some cucumbers for added crunchy-ness and avocado.

Voila! all nutrients in one bowl. :D

1. White/brown japanese button mushroom
2. Corn for sweetness (optional)
3. Mushroom ball (optional)
