macau food!

Heyya! Ill be going with 3 friends who are food lovers. but all of us have a rather tight budget.

Is it possible to find authentic portuguese food within the budget of 100 HKD per person ?

What are the other must-trys besides Margaret%26#39;s Egg Tarts?

(:

yaleryn,

macau food!

Should not be too much of a problem as dishes are often quite large and great for sharing. Regarding authentic Portuguese food, I worry less about the authenticity and more about the taste! A lot of places in Macau are a blend of different styles anyway.

Places I like (not all could be described as 100% authentic Portuguese) include Nga Tim Cafe in Coloane Village, Santos and O%26#39; Manuel in Taipa Village, Alorcha near A Ma temple and Fernando%26#39;s (big servings and good atmosphere).

Sorry - some spelling mistakes above:

O Manel, 90 Rua de Fernao Mendes Pinto

O SANTOS - Comida Portuguesa Restaurant, Rua de Cunha No. 20, Taipa Island

Fernando , 9 Hac Sa Beach, Coloane Island

A Lorcha , 289A Rua do Almirante Sergio

Drumbrake has given a good list already, so I%26#39;ll just add some personal must-tries as they come to mind - anything from the take-away desserts shop downstairs from Dumbo%26#39;s restaurant in Taipa village,

milk puddings from Leitaria I Son on Senado Square (they also do excellent pork chop buns and French toast %26lt;xi duo%26gt;).

Margaret%26#39;s home-style lemonade. She has lots of other yummy stuff too :-)

I%26#39;m a fan of Macau%26#39;s ';dry barbecue'; meats, but most Singaporeans seem to prefer the version they get at home.

Pressed almond cookies - you%26#39;ll be offered plenty of free samples of these last two on the walk between Senado Square and St Paul%26#39;s, so you can decide whose versions you prefer.

Pig liver congee - I don%26#39;t know what the local cooks put in it, but yummm. The Areia Preta area has produced the best versions I%26#39;ve tried.

If you need help waking up in the morning, go to the nearest cha-chaang teng for a cup of cha-fe - I don%26#39;t know if you%26#39;ll like it, but it%26#39;s 100% Macau.

THANKS DRUMBRAKE %26amp; OISAAN!

Ill definitely try some of the places u guys have suggested even if it means putting on all those calories. LOL

:D
