With ingredients spanning time and cultures, food in Macao is something to savor.
Few places have such a reputation for dishing up creativity as Macao. You can taste the difference, literally, in the special administrative region of China.
And it is still evolving. Amid the culinary landscape of the past decade, fusion cuisine has emerged as a prominent trend, with chefs from diverse backgrounds crafting innovative creations by blending elements from different culinary traditions.
In Macao, the roots of fusion cuisine actually run much deeper, spanning at least four centuries — the cuisine is acknowledged by UNESCO as the world's inaugural fusion food.
This unique culinary tradition traces its origins to the age of maritime exploration, recording a symphony of flavors that has matured and settled, indeed marinated, in Macao over time.
This cuisine not only melds ingredients, spices and cooking techniques but also seamlessly intertwines cultures and histories, creating an outstanding culinary tapestry.
