Dream Trip to Macau

Saturday, November 22, 2014


If you’re a Hong Kong drama fans like me, the impression that you have on Macau might remain as the city of gamble. 

There’s always this one person in the family that cross the sea to Macau and gamble.

But Macau has developed a lot since the good old days! XD

I’m not very confident with my knowledge about Macau, therefore I did some research and found out that Macau was both the first and last European colony in China!
WOW! To be the first and the last it definitely has something to offer.
Just imagine the food, architecture and the culture that birth out of this history.

1. The food.
When I think of food in Macau, the first thing that comes to my mind is Lord Stow’s egg tart!
I read that all their egg tarts are served freshly baked from the oven!!
Look at the crust and the hot creamy egg custard in the centre!!

*slurp*

Other than egg tart, Macau has lots more to offer!

I also wanna try pork chop bun from Tai Lei Loi Kei (大利來記) 
Look at the juicy pork chop covered by the crispy bun!

Isin't it mouth watering?

And also dessert from Mok Yi Kei (莫義記)

2. The Casino.
How can you visit the “Las Vegas of the Far East” without stepping into a casino right?

Although I’m don’t gamble, but that does not mean I cannot admire the architecture of the stunning casino resorts. Right?

I mean look at Venetian Macau.

I think the experience of it is priceless.

I wish to go there at night so that I can soak into the beauty of the stunning lights.

3. The diverse Beauty.
With such a rich history, Macau is a place where you can feel like being in Asia and in Portugal at the very same moment.

Their unique history is reflected in the diverse beauty of the city.

Their food, casinos and diverse beauty.

Thank you Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO) and Nuffnang Malaysia for adding Macau to the my list of places to go before I die!
