ORDER THE CITY
Five rituals, without the costume.
Give Macanese cooking a full meal
Order one or two substantial dishes with sides at Litoral and ask how the flavours differ from Portuguese restaurant cooking.
Treat egg tarts as a pause
A warm tart is a snack or dessert; protect a real lunch when walking for several hours.
Keep the branch in the plan
Litoral’s peninsula and Taipa addresses support different days; confirm the written address before taking a taxi.
Try noodles before another resort buffet
A bowl of wonton noodles or congee adds variety to several rich restaurant meals.
