Episode of restaurant in Hotel Lisboa Macau

Tomo&Chouchou arrived late on the first day. We walked and looked for a restaurant near the hotel. Any restaurants didn't hit us so much. We also worried about closing time. We decided to go back to the hotel and eat in the hotel. Restaurant "Noite e Dia Café" was open. We entered the restaurant. It was nice atmosphere. Tomo wanted to eat Macau cuisine during this trip. So Tomo ordered Portuguese Chicken [Portuguese: Galinha à Portuguesa] [Chinese: 葡國雞]. It was visually beautiful. The taste was also very good. Chouchou ordered Seafood spaghetti. We enjoyed meal in the relaxing mood at the restaurant in Hotel Lisboa. 

On the third day, we could eat breakfast in the hotel. We had Breakfast at the same restaurant "Noite e Dia Café". It was buffet style. We could eat Chinese and western dishes. There were so many varieties of dishes. There were fresh fruits and desserts. We really enjoyed breakfast. We were so satisfied.

After eating breakfast, we visited world heritage sites in Macau. We had to check out early in the morning next day, so we decided to go back to hotel and had dinner at the restaurant in the hotel. We went to same restaurant in Hotel Lisboa. We ate African chicken [Portuguese: Galinha à Africana] [Chinese: 非洲雞] as Macau cuisine. We also ate Fried noodles as Chinese cuisine. We ate Bisque (shrimp soup) in the bread. Everything was tasty. We really enjoyed all meals.

All foods that we ate in Macau was great. We don't normally eat in the same restaurant during the trip. But in Macau, we ate at the same restaurant "Noite e Dia Café"  several times. Even though, we didn't feel bored because of wide variety. It was the attractive point in Macau. We were in Macau but we could feel that we were in Portugual or China. The architecture, culture and foods were mixed well, then people in Macau created their original culture, cuisine and so on. 

Tomo&Chouchou recommend the restaurant in Hotel Lisboa Macau. It was easy to discover and taste many kinds of dishes. The quality and taste were good.

Episode of restaurant in Sorteny

Tomo & Chouchou went to the restaurant called "Cal Tonet" where the guide working in the information of Sorteny Natural Park recommended.
The guide said to us, "You MUST eat Arròs de muntanya !!"
He also said to us, "The salads are very good ! You should try the salad too !".
So Tomo & Chouchou ordered, as he recommended, Arròs de muntanya for two people, two kinds of Salad, Catalan rose wine and Catalan mineral water.
The colour of Catalan rose wine was beautiful rosy pink.  It was just right sweetness and fresh taste. It was very good. It was so good, so we looked for the same rose wine in the shop in Andorra and bought some as our souvenir.
Catalan mineral water was good too.
First, the salads were served. The quantity of Salad was not small. The salads were visually simple, but when we ate the salad, it was surprisingly delicious !
The ingredients were very fresh and good. Small broad beans were super good.
Goat cheese salad [amanida formatge de cabra] was also tasty. Big portion of goat cheese was on the salad.
Next, Arròs de muntanya were surved to our table. We were very surprised to see the quantity of it. It was big volume ! First bite brought us to the paradise and we couldn't stop eating it. They use lots of ingredients from the mountain such as mashrooms, vegetables, meat of the animal living in the mountain. So it was very rich flavour. Arròs de muntanya was extremely tasty. We were so happy and satisfied to eat at Cal Tonet. We appreciated the guide.  If possible, we really wanna go to Cal Tonet to eat again.

If you have an opportunity to go to Andorra, please try Arròs de muntanya !

Gaucho [Gaúcho] & Brazilian specialty (Churrasco, Chimarrão, Cachaça)

Southern Brazil: Rio Grande do Sul

Brazilian BBQ "Churrasco" is very famous.
It's said that Churrasco is originated in southern Brazil. 

Chimarrão is mate/maté tea. It's a traditional South American drink.

Gaúcho is South American cowboy. Gaúcho culture remains in Rio Grande do Sul.

Cachaça is a distilled alcohol spirit made from sugarcane juice.

 

Here are the restaurant & bar 
where local Brazilian friends took Tomo & Chouchou.

Episode of Rio Grande do Sul

Tomo & Chouchou has Brazilian friends who live in Brazil. Some of them live in Rio Grande do Sul. So they took us to some restaurants and bars there. 

Speaking of Brazil, Brazilian BBQ [Churrasco] is very famous. Of course, our Brazilian friends took us two Churrasco restaurants [=Churrascaria] in Porto Alegre. One of the restaurants was called "Churrascaria Galpão Crioulo". We could see Gaúcho dance show while eating Churrasco.
The restaurant offers the buffet, so we can eat lots of vegetables as much as we can. The waiters bring grilled meat with skewer to the table and they slice meats in front of us. There is a card on the table for each person. When you become full, you show red-color side of the card. It means "I am full. No more meats, thanks."
Then the waiters stop serving meats to you. 

FYI, we ate Churrasco in Sao Paulo and Porte Alegre. We felt Churrasco in Porte Alegre was saltier than Churrasco in Sao Paulo. Taste was different according to the region. 

Tomo & Chouchou were very lucky. Some friends of our Brazilian friends are Gaúcho (=Cowboys). Our Brazilian friends invited them to their house for us. They came with traditional Gaúcho costumes and sang Gaúcho songs with playing the guitar. They also taught us how to drink mate/maté [chimarrão] with special traditional calabash gourd in Gaúcho way. Gaúcho way of drinking mate is to drink with one same metal straw and pass to the next person. We felt that such way of drinking mate tea actually made people close very quickly.
Tomo & Chouchou were so satisfied to experience Gaúcho (Cowboy) culture of Rio Grande do Sul.

We also went to Cachaçaria which is a bar specializing Cachaça or Pinga.
Cocktail made with cachaça [pinga] and maracujá (=passion fruit) was very delicious! Of course, Caipirinha which is a cocktail made with cachaça, lime and sugar was also excellent. We really enjoyed real cachaça [pinga] in Brazil ♪
