Cooking with your heart

by
Situated in Toi San in the north of the city, a cozy restaurant named Tsutori gives off a very authentic Japanese vibe. Its entrance is designed as a traditional Japanese torii which is a gate structure (literally 'bird perch') found in Japanese Shinto shrines. To enhance the mood further, sitting in the centre of the restaurant is an enormous Japanese-style wall painting of a fox, which is said to be the guardian of the ‘torii’. 
 
“The restaurant has been operating for three years, and its name, Tsutori comes from a combination of the famous Tokyo Wholesale Market 'Tsukiji Market’ and the traditional Japanese ‘Torii' gate,” explains Mr. Kwok, the restaurant manager, who has worked here since it opened. “The name is also a homonym for 'sufficiently selected materials' in Cantonese, which is in line with our concept.”
 
“The signature dish of our restaurant is Sashimi Donburi. At the time we opened this restaurant, Sashimi Donburi was not common in Macau, but it is actually a popular dish that you can see everywhere in Japan, like Ramen, so we wanted to introduce freshly imported Sashimi Donburi from Japan to Macau at an affordable price,” Mr. Kwok says. “We’ve also added other menu items like sushi, yakimono and donburi, and we also constantly refresh our sashimi items catering for customer preferences.”
 
Sashimi Donburi is basically a selection of sashimi served on top of rice in a large traditional bowl. 
 
“We always prioritize fresh ingredients. As our boss always reminds us, we want to provide the best delicacies at a reasonable price, and always with friendly service for our customers. And as our slogan goes: Be a person with your heart, cook with your heart,” he smiles.
 
As evidence of its popularity, Tsutori has recently opened a new outlet near Av. Venceslau de Morais, focusing more on live seafood and sake.

As a family-owned Cantonese restaurant, Lei Hong Kei Restaurant has witnessed the transformation of Macau from a quiet village to a global tourist city over a span of nearly seven-decades, creating many fond memories for generations of locals.
 
 
 
 
Famously, local Macanese food is a fusion of gastronomic influences from all along the old Portuguese trading routes. And one of the stops along those routes was the city of Goa in India.  
 
 
 
 
When choosing the name and designing the logo for their restaurant, the owners of Paper Moon included a paper plane to represent the fact that locals can enjoy authentic Thai food without actually travelling to Thailand.  And given the situation we find ourselves in in 2020, that’s a very good thing!  
 
 
 
 
Living in Macau, we are spoiled for choice, with so many great Portuguese restaurants offering a wide range of delicious, authentic flavours.  So you might think that we really don’t need even more Portuguese restaurants because all the important dishes are already available, right?  Well, according to the talented young chefs at Three Sardines, you would be wrong.
 
 
 
 
Local restaurants all seem to be quite full these days, but amidst the busyness of Macau’s dining scene, one Taipa restaurant offers its customers the chance to cleanse their bodies and find peace of mind with healthy food and a serene, natural environment – Sum Yuen Buddhist vegetarian restaurant nestled under the roof of Pou Tai Temple.
