The bread crumbs are also crunchy. The overall taste is rich and salty with a hint of sweetness. ✨Macanese Laksa Soup with Shrimp Paste Macau salty shrimp rice noodle soup with shrimp paste 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 — my favorite Salty shrimp paste - an essential seasoning for Macanese cuisine. Different in texture from Hong Kong shrimp paste It is mainly made of dried shrimp, lemon peel, black pepper, dried chili and whiskey. The small dumplings are filled with pork and vegetables and are dipped in a rich shrimp broth. The soup is so rich that it feels like eating a pound of shrimp. The taste of real ingredients The rice noodles absorb the soup and are paired with a rich and fragrant salty shrimp paste, which adds a lot of salty and fresh flavor to the whole dish. So delicious and outstanding 😚 ✨Plant-based Minchi Fried minced meat - Minced meat noodles are usually fried with beef and pork. This time I used vegetarian meat, I didn't expect it to be the same as real meat. The texture of the fruit pulp is both chewy and chewy, and the taste is traditional with potato pulp It's light and filling, not greasy at all, and makes your stomach feel comfortable after eating. What I like most is the glass plate, which makes it look like a bonsai decoration🌱 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻 ✨African Chicken African chicken - plated to look like carrots with roasted potatoes The dish is similar to piri-piri chicken with Southeast Asian spices and Chinese cooking method. The chicken is tender and tasty. The special sauce is slightly sweet and spicy with a hint of coconut flavor. The more you eat, the more appetizing it becomes. ✨Beef Rolls Beef rolls - tender beef with rich flavor, wrapped in Portuguese bacon and champagne sauce, delicious 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘁 ✨Sweet Temptations Milk coconut milk pudding, small biscuits, yellow sugar egg The baby biscuit is actually an almond coconut cake - you can taste the almond crumbs and it's not too sweet; the yellow sugar egg is similar to egg pudding. The smooth and light egg pudding is paired with a rich caramel sauce on top. - 📍Vida Rica Restaurant Mandarin Oriental Macau - #lamchelin #lamchelin_hotel #MacauItinerary #Mandarin Oriental Macau #lamchelin_macao #imafan
