Galaxy lives up to the adage: “the key to a man’s heart is through his stomach” by introducing a selection of memorable festive delicacies for Christmas.
To celebrate the “most wonderful time of the year”, Galaxy’s Café de Paris Monte-Carlo has introduced an authentic French Christmas menu to lighten up the mood.
The meal begins with a Terrine of Duck Liver with Port Wine, Toasted Brioche paired with a glass of Perrier-Jouet Champagne to enhance the flavour.
This restaurant will be serving two different main courses for Christmas and New Year, offering different French classics with wine pairings. On the Christmas menu there will be a Pan-seared Veal Medallion, while the New Year menu offers a choice of Roasted Red Mullet Fillet or Beef Tenderloin.
The Christmas veal was made of the juiciest cuts to ensure that every bite is tender and bursting with flavour. The fillet is accompanied with a Champagne sauce and fried artichoke, which adds various textures to the dish.
The festive gastronomic meal wraps up with a traditional Christmas log cake. The cake has a thin layer of chocolate wrapped around a dark chocolate mousse. The log is also surrounded by mushroom-shaped meringues to add some crunchiness to the softness of mousse, and serves as a tribute to the traditional “Bûche de Noël”.
The Christmas Eve and Christmas Day set dinners are priced at 488 patacas and an extra 200 patacas for wine pairing. The New Year’s Eve set dinner and set lunch are priced at 588 patacas.
Galaxy Macau also has a selection of special festive menus in over 20 restaurants and bars, such as Cha Bei and Terrazza Italian Restaurant, featuring French, Italian, Japanese, Thai and Chinese delicacies and gourmet buffets.
The authentic Hot Pot Sensations from eight restaurants at Broadway Food Street, which is just a footbridge away from Galaxy Macau, will also thrill the taste buds of guests who are looking for a warmer treat.
Once Galaxy Macau has earnt your heart through your stomach, the Christmas-special shopping spree can help you digest the delicious meal.
The Promenade Shops at Galaxy Macau has launched a Festive Shopping Rewards programme, along with a series of “time limited shops” such as Saint Laurent’s Asia exclusive pop-up, Canada Goose pop-up and Ferragamo Viva pop-up. For spending of 10,000 patacas or above, guests will get rewards of up to 5,000 patacas in gift certificates.
