Slices of delicious roast BBQ pork (charsiu) sandwiched between a huge egg omelette and cotton soft white bread is the best way to start your day in Macau. The old folks gather before the crack of dawn, have their hot milk tea over sandwiches and flour cakes and idle chit chat.

Chu Kei
The signature dish on the menu at this noodle house is the “Sam bo” which literally translates to three treasures from Cantonese. It’s a bowl of piping hot bouillon with a pork and fish bones base that comes with three different types of dumplings – the wantons, sui gow dumplings and finally the yu mai “fish flour” dumplings that have a smoother and thicker consistency and their skins don’t crease when cooked like its counterparts. The fillings consist of minced pork, shitake mushrooms and fresh shrimps. Recommend trying the deep fried wontons too!

PASTA
Charlie Gitto's On the Hill
The toasted ravioli is an iconic American classic invented at Charlie Gitto's "on the hill" when the chef mistakenly dropped the ravioli into boiling oil instead of water. The result is a delicious ravioli with a crunch. This is now a staple of many restaurants around St Louis but eating it where it was invented is a special experience.

Elbow Lane Brew and Smoke House
Sounds of approval all around the table as I got stuck into Half an Applewood Smoked Duck, checking over the carcase a few times to make sure I hadn't left anything edible there. “The best duck ever,” was the verdict. And I enjoyed the sides and didn’t spare their own Smoke House Sauce. All the while sipping from their own beers, brewed a few yards away.

Jeju Harubang Dwetgogi
The best pork comes from Jeju and this place has thick slabs of it that are cooked over charcoal and served with a bean and anchovy sauce for dipping. The owner was a butcher so he knows the best cuts of pork and gets premium pork for his place. They serve lots of kimchis and greens with the pork and a pungent bean paste soup to accompany it. Oh, and enjoy the Jeju Soju with it.
