Valentine’s Day is almost here. Ready to take your special hottie out for a delicious, sensuous outing? No, I’m not talking about stuff between the sheets just yet. I am just thinking of introducing you to the best venue in town to celebrate that special day, a place with creative wonders and tastes that will leave you mesmerized and enchanted.
From “The first date…” to “Everlasting…”, all romantic journeys reign supreme at MGM Macau. This Valentine’s Day, the hottest chef in town, Chef de Cuisine, Elie Khalife and his team at Aux Beaux Arts recreates the romantic ambience of the city of Paris through exceptional gastronomy with a special menu of Parisian delicacies, creatively named after the different stages of the love journey. Couples will have the evening all to themselves, whether nestled amidst the warm glistening lights at the Grande Praça, or the cozy haven of luxury inside the restaurant.
The 6-course menu begins with a magnificently crafted “The first date…” featuring beef carpaccio with caviar and beetroot ice-cream. While ice-cream is usually a dessert, here it has an unconventional twist as a starter to impress you and your beloved from the very beginning of the evening. The second dish is named – “Sensual…” highlighted by foie gras topped with pop candy, lychee and passion fruit. The rich, buttery and delicate flavor of the foie gras is balanced by the sweetness and sourness of the lychee and passion fruit. With a touch of purple flower garnish, it celebrates the sensual moments of your love.
The third dish features king crab with clear tomato consommé, jelly and basil. In this creation, the freshness of the king crab symbolizes the mood of “Falling in love…”. The amorous feelings continue to blossom with the seafood main course of poached lobster in rose water with salsify, pomegranate and mizuna. Beautifully named “La vie en rose…”, it is enhanced by a few pink rose petals, turning this dish into an aesthetic masterpiece. The red meat main course is roasted lamb loin with yuzu, lavender, carrot risotto and black olives, lovingly prepared Mediterranean style. The tenderness and subtle flavor of the lamb loin highlights the “Moments…” that you both will cherish.
This romantic feast reaches its zenith with the presentation of white chocolate and strawberry garnished like hot lips, as the sugary creation is named “French kiss…”. The delight-ful blueberry, spices and red wine sorbet accompaniment as well will impart that sense of “Everlasting…”
