First time in Macau, the glitz and glamour of mini-Las Vegas. The night lights and scene is really quite happening. Won abit at blackjack at the casino (could've been more but the gambling bug bit me on the last day and I lost my logic and calm)...Other than the Portugese egg tart that everyone definitely eats once in Macau, our Macau client brought us to eat this wan-ton mee place. It was definitely quite pricey, HKD20 for this bowl of wanton noodles. The egg noodles was springy and
flavoursome, unlike the usual machine-made noodles. Upon closer inspection of the newspaper cuttings on the wall, the noodles are made in the traditional way where the artisan sits on a huge bamboo pole and bounces/flattens the dough to perfection. (probably that's why the dish is so expensive)The other star of the show was actually the braised chicken feet. (another of my favourite food!). The gelatinous texture plus the crunchiness of the ligaments in the chick
en feet - amazing combination. (Macau chickens run more than Singapore ones?). The large intestine is too fatty for my liking.The deep-fried wanton is comparable to the best-ones I've tried in Singapore. The round cuttlefish ball is rolled in crispy dough bits, there are still bits of fresh cuttlefish meat in it.

Comments: When there's deep-fried food involved, plus fatty intestine, it'll probably taste as good as it is unhealthy. No dinner for me tonight! The noodles are worth the air-tickets over to Macau =) Will definitely be back.
