TASTE OF EDESIA | Exquisite Celebrations 

February is almost here and it’s the special time of year to spend with loved ones. For both Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day, St. Regis Macao has arranged culinary delights and experiences for celebrations. 

Executive Sous Chef at The Manor, Michele Dell’Aquila

Stories of the Sea – The Tenth Chapter has debuted at The Manor. The six-course menu focuses on the freshest seafood and finest ingredients, setting the perfect stage to celebrate the abundance of the Lunar New Year.

For the first course, Executive Sous Chef Michele Dell’Aquila introduces Brittany Lobster with heirloom tomato, white asparagus, burrata cheese topped with Calvisius Oscietra caviar.  As fish symbolises abundance and prosperity in the Chinese culture, it is apt for him to showcase three different fish dishes. The delicate Red Trout is paired with seasonal vegetables while the grouper is pan-seared with baby fennel, ginger and lemongrass butter sauce.  The succulent Mediterranean turbot is cooked in cocoa crust and Barigoule sauce topped Lingotto dried caviar is a must-try.  For the ideal finale, the bright red Raspberry soufflé is dressed with wild berries, Azuma Rikishi sake ice cream and cheesecake cream. A specially curated wine pairing by resident Sommelier, David Duan, enhances each course and elevates the dining experience even further.
