MESA, a Portuguese restaurant and bar designed by Karl Lagerfeld himself, has a dreamy blue sky. It is also the first restaurant in East Asia by Portuguese chef José Avillez. Don’t miss it when you come to Macau!

【Appetizers】The chicken skin is so thin that it is almost transparent, and it is slow-roasted until it is almost pink but crispy as paper. The shrimp is sweet, and the smoked avocado sauce connects the two, making the overall taste richer. The small chili ring is the finishing touch.【Red Devil Prawn, Green Apple, Rosemary Powder】The large, bright red shrimp contains shrimp paste, which is full of sweetness, softness and ocean flavor. The Thai curry made with shrimp heads, plus the freshness of green apples, sways the summer mood.【Grilled turbot, broccoli sprouts, broad beans, basil sauce】Most of the turbot fish I had eaten in Chinese food before was steamed, but José Avillez grilled it until it was as soft as steamed. The fish skin had a burnt color and the unique Maillard aroma of grilled food. It was a bit of summer. The color and taste of the vegetables match perfectly with the jade-colored fish. 【Suckling Pig & Coriander Stewed Pig's Trotter & Potato Crisp】It can be described as a refined deconstruction of the traditional Portuguese roast suckling pig. Two thin and neatly cut pieces of suckling pig skin are sandwiched with soft and gelatinous pig trotters stewed with coriander. The mouthfull of burnt and meaty aroma, crispy and soft, all kinds of tastes come one after another.

The restaurant is gorgeous and stylish. The wide dome is charming and ever-changing. In the daytime, the [mesa] has a green sky that is no different from the sky above the Galeries Lafayette studio. At night, it is a starry sky.
Service experience: 5.0
They are decent and meticulous, fully familiar with the dishes, and give guests appropriate recommendations and introductions. They also have a full understanding of the seasonal menu and ingredients, and the bartenders and sommeliers are also very professional.
Innovative concept: 5.0
As a cross-border restaurant that combines fashion and food, Weishang appropriately and skillfully integrates Galeries Lafayette's iconic elements into the environment, wine and dishes.

If you want to taste authentic Portuguese cuisine, then the Taste Restaurant at the Carrafi Luxury Hotel on the 3rd floor of the Grand Lisboa Resort Hotel in Macau is definitely not to be missed. 1. Environment As soon as you enter the door, the protruding bar comes into view. The overall black and gold frame design, paired with birdcage-style chandeliers and retro carved chairs, creates a full sense of luxury. 2. Food The dishes are compact and beautifully presented, making people very appetizing at first glance. Special mention should be made of cod meat, mashed potatoes, onions and eggs. The skin is crispy, the inside is salty and dense, and the taste is great. 3. Service The staff are enthusiastic and thoughtful, adding a touch of warmth to your dining experience.
Finally came to check in at Taste. A restaurant I have collected for a long time. [Environment] Really great. Black and white gold main color scheme, a fusion of Chinese and Western styles, high-end and fashionable, as if designed by fashion guru Karl Lagerfeld, it is really photogenic. [Service] Careful and considerate, will recommend its signature dishes, and will introduce the dishes when serving. [Taste] Bacalhau balls: a must-order Portuguese dish, crispy and delicious; white Angus Sirloin steak is amazing, tender and fragrant, with sunny-side-up eggs, rich and delicious taste. Other dishes are also good... you can try~
It's hard to describe how empty the Upper Putin is. I took a nap on the first day in Macau. We were summoned to Grand Lisboa for dinner in the evening. It was like a maze. We asked a kind waiter to take us upstairs. The environment was very nice, quiet and private, without loud noises. The wine was delicious. My friends bought a few bottles after drinking. The dishes were small and exquisite. Don't pursue fullness. I only took pictures of the dishes in front of me. The table was too long. It was too ugly to stand up and take pictures of the food. Please forgive me. The price was very good.
