Disapointing again in Macau

[Boss77]

We went to Clube Militair for lunch in Macau. Overall, we were again disappointed eating in Macau. We had:

Arroz de marisco à moda do Clube (Wet seafood rice Club style) - good, but not as tasty as a great Paella.

Galinha à “Africana”marinada em alho, cebola, chilli e coco, assada e servida com batata gratinada e salada mista (“ African ” chicken marinated with garlic, onion, chilli and coconut, roasted and served with gratinated potatoes and mixed salad) - good, but not great. A little fatty and not spicy enough.

We had more, but I can't remember any of it.

Your profile shows your favorite comfort food is Chinese food then why not sample the Cantonese food scene in Macau, which is way better and more interesting than its Portugese food scene.

[Boss77]

Because I was spending a week in Hong Kong at the same time and was going to eat Cantonese there (reviews to come).

Noted but Macau has its own style, its own subtle interpretation of Cantonese food. Worth to try on its own merit.

Agree with FourSeason!
Actually, since Macau is famous for its various 'crab' varietal, a Cantonese meal focus on crab dishes can be enjoyable and fun!! I recall in the good old days, my relatives brought back to Hong Kong, nothing but crab after there Macau visits!

Yes, I love Old Neptune's crab noodle too but I ordered on Ee noodle, rather than bamboo noodle.

For food lovers Macau really has a lot to offer, as eveything is kind of half price of HK, though except for Robuchon there are no must visits.
