[Macau] Brazilian Carnival fun at FW Rio Grill & Seafood Market

When you take the ferry to Macau, the first thing that can't be missed is Fishermans Wharf.
Fishermans Wharf is like a world of its own with a mini Cape Town, Roman style amphitheater, Shakespearean buildings and Amsterdam narrow houses.
Roman style amphitheater:


Amsterdam style narrow houses:

Shakespearean style buildings:


After taking a walk at each place, I went to the opening of the new FW Rio Grill & Seafood Market restaurant.
It started off with a spectacular Brazilian carnival and Samba Parade which is on everyday until 2nd April 2018 at the following times: 12:30am, 18:00pm & 19:15pm.

You can get the best view of the Macau harbour whilst dining there as both floors are overlooking the harbour.

FW Seafood Market on the ground floor provides cozy dining area and seaside terrace, featuring fresh seafood that allow guests to pick and select the way to be served according to their preferences.

That night, we tried FW Rio Grill on the upper level which offers All you can eat Brazilian BBQ Buffet at attractive prices.

Freshly grilled meats are continuously brought out and served to guests at their table as long as the wooden peg is green on the top while red means your full.
All meats are grilled in this big grill flown over from Brazil.


Picanha:
Beef Rib:

Sausages:

All the grilled meats I have tried were really good especially the pork ribs and the grilled juicy pineapple which must not be missed with all that scrumptious cinnamon sprinkled on.



As well as meat, there was a wide buffet selection with seafood, fine cheeses, hams and a good selection of salads.




I am definitely coming back with friends to chill out.

Easter at [Assaggio Trattoria Italiana]

Easter is all about Eggs hence Assaggio are doing an Egg themed menu available from 26/3 – 29/4 in the evenings.

There is a Sunny Egg Combo or you can order the items a la carte.


Using good eggs are important for the best taste, hence they have chosen to use organic eggs from Sunny Queen Farms where the chickens are not caged.

***
PIZZA GOURMET Parma Ham, Spinach, Truffle Sauce, Soft-baked Egg

It had all my favourite ingredients, so I clearly liked it and I liked the way there was more spinach beneath the cheese as well on top which makes it healthy as well as delicious complemented by the parma ham and egg yolk.
***
HOMEMADE TAGLIONLI EGG PASTA with Black Truffle Sauce and Golden Egg

I love the freshly made pasta at Assaggio and with the use of Sunny Eggs, the pasta is even more eggy in taste complimented by the golden egg on top.
***
As well as the egg dishes, the grilled chicken which was divine.
The smell and taste was almost like chicken from Nandos in the UK but lacking peri peri sauce.

***
CARAMELIZED EGG PUDDING:

Finished with the caramel pudding which was thick, creamy and rich.
***
Easter colouring by me!

Italians celebrate Easter by eating the Torta Pasqualina, a traditional Italian Easter pie with Spinach and cheese sauce.

The Torta Pasqualina will only be available at the Easter Sunday Seafood Buffet Brunch on April the 1st!

[Café Life Patisserie & Cafe] Full of Life

Cafe Life started off at PMQ and now they have a bigger and spacious joint on QRC.
All their cakes are Japanese style and everything is so pretty.
Sakura Chiffon Cake:

Sakura Cookies:

Sakura Napolean:

The only thing is that, they could do with more tables to cope with people ordering toasts and other things that really need a table.


At the moment, Sakura is trending and on the menu.
Tried the Sakura roll which was delicate filled with fresh cream.


It was so good that I had the strawberry cake which also uses that deliciously whipped fresh cream.

Finished with the Sakura tea which you just don't want to add the Sakura foam cap because the flower at the bottom is so dainty and decorative.



The milk cap blends in perfectly and I think it had some slight saltiness to it.
