This is (a branch of ) Macau's oldest restaurant (dating from 1903), but its three floors of dining have been renovated in upbeat modern Art Deco.
Its exterior matches all the other storefronts on this renovated street -- whitewashed walls and red shutters and doors -- which used to serve as Macau's red-light district.
Macanese cuisine is served here, including roast pigeon marinated according to a 90-year-old secret recipe; spicy African chicken; curried crab; garoupa stewed with tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and potatoes; and grilled king prawns.
