Chiado at The Londoner Macao Offers Six-Course Tasting Menu
Indulge in the rich and authentic flavours of Portugal at The Londoner Macao’s Chiado restaurant as Chef Sá Pessoa introduces the "Costa a Costa" Dégustation Journey. Spotlighting Portuguese cuisine, this six-course dinner tasting menu mirrors the excellence of the chef’s two-Michelin-starred restaurant, Alma, in Lisbon.
Following the local wisdom of "When in Macao, do as the Macanese do," Chiado is your go-to spot for authentic Portuguese food. Chef Sá Pessoa brings the best of Portugal to the table, ensuring a genuine culinary adventure for diners.
The star of the show is the “Costa a Costa” menu, meaning "Coast to Coast." It's Chef Sá Pessoa's way of showcasing his skills and treating diners to a special seafood-focused experience. This menu isn't just about food; it's a representation of the chef's unique style, which he calls "tasteful cuisine."
Dive into the opulent gastronomic experience with the first course, Red Prawn, where the sought-after deep-sea prawn Carabineiro takes centre stage alongside a traditional açorda (bread soup) and delicate sea lettuce. Continue the culinary adventure with Monkfish and Lobster Rice, a harmonious blend of flavours that pay homage to Portugal's rich seafood heritage.
The menu reaches its crescendo with the innovative dessert, Sea Flavours and Citrus, a symphony of umami-forward sea sponge, crystallized algae, and the vibrant notes of citrus and yuzu sorbet. Chef Sá Pessoa eloquently describes the experience, stating, "Costa a Costa is a tribute to seafood, taking diners on a journey along Portugal’s coastline through each carefully conceived plate."
Priced at MOP1,388 per person, with an extra MOP488 for wine pairing, the "Costa a Costa" Dégustation Journey at Chiado is an opportunity to enjoy the best of Portugal's coastal treasures in the heart of Macao.
