Fat Siu Lau
At least three generations in Macau would have heard about this charming century-old Macanese institution. Try its signature roasted pigeon. The chic Fat Siu Lau 2 (Ef Vista Magnifica Court, Avenida Dr Sun Yat Sen), its first and only branch after a century, has some fusion innovations in its menu.

Amagao
Make your way to Amagao and let the chef heal you if you are sick of flash eateries and crying out for a good honest meal. Located down a side alley off Rua da Cunha, this 10-seat family style Macanese restaurant is probably the best in Macau. The fabulously flavourful Portuguese chicken (MOP$98) is exceptional.

Nino’s Cozinha
This gem hidden in a quiet corner off Queen’s Rd East cooks up the best Portuguese fare in town. Classics such as the oxtail stew ($158) and baked duck rice ($110) evolved from heirloom recipes of the Portuguese-Chinese owners. Hearty fare cooked from the heart. Book early.

Riquexó
This unpretentious eatery near the reservoir is one of the best kept secrets among the local Macanese community. Choices are sparse, but its homemade Macanese dishes like feijodo (pork with black beans) and minchi, as well as its flan, deserve a thumbs-up.

Henri’s Galley
The wonderful Macanese chef Henri Wong is the soul of this 34-year-old institution. Mr Wong expertly prepares Macanese specialities like African chicken and Macau sole with a unique recipe. The Sai Van Lake setting is superb.

If you can’t get a table at A Lorcha, this lovely restaurant is a good alternative for both Portuguese and Macanese fare. The juicy African chicken deserves savouring.

Galo
You can easily recognise this place by the picture of a red-combed galo (rooster) above the door. The food is adequate and the service flawless.

Escada
Occupying a former town house, Escada has a few balcony tables that make for a romantic dinner. The signature African chicken (MOP$128) is excellent, but steer clear of the steaks. Book ahead.

Café Nga Tim
We love the Chinese-Portuguese food, the small-town atmosphere, the view of the Chapel of St Francis Xavier, the prices and the owner – a guitar-and erhu- strumming ex-cop named Feeling.
