The Parisian Macao’s signature restaurant Brasserie will present a celebratory four-course set menu until May 31 as part of French GourMay 2021, an annual French food and wine festival that takes place in Hong Kong and Macau throughout the month.
The theme of this year’s festival is a ‘food art journey with a taste of surrealism’. In addition to the usual authentic French flavours on offer at Brasserie, diners can expect a highly aesthetic plate presentation and a colourful feast for the senses.
The main courses include roasted Barbary duck breast with fig carpaccio, poached fig, parsnip puree and port wine jus, and prawns with smoked Arctic char, scallop and salmon incorporates sauerkraut, squid ink and white beurre blanc sauce to create a surreal black and white checkerboard. Finally, a dessert comprising yoghurt mousse, apricot jelly and peach sherbet suggests an intriguing still life.
The menu is only available for dinner, priced at 528 patacas per person. Guests can also add 288 patacas to pair dishes with a selection of outstanding French wines. – spr
