<![CDATA[Travel: Macau]]>Hi there,


Can anyone please advise whether Macau is a conducive place to bring a 3 yr old in September??

Was surfing about Macau and came across this indoor playground called Kids' City at Hard Rock Hotel, City of Dreams. Any comments about this place??

May be going to Macau and toying with the idea of bringing my DS, so some constructive input/feedback will be very much appreciated.

MTIA 😄

A little trip can still be a pleasant change of pace, even if there isn’t much to do for kids. Your child might like discovering a new place or the hotel pool.

Most of my friends go to Macau to gamble. From what they say, the things there are not cheap, in fact even more expensive than singapore. I am also curious as to what other attractions are there besides gambling?

There is more to Macau than gambling. http://obliquetravel.com/2014/09/16/photo-essay-on-macau/ but I could have easily gone on to 4D3N without stepping into a casino if I wanted to (which is what one of my friend's family did recently).

Places that I did not explore:
1. Venetian (there's more to casino there)
2. Taipa

My other recommendation is the Steamed Milk Pudding. Originated from Macau but most people would be eating it in Hong Kong.

The egg tarts and the bbq pork which I have no clue why it is such popular there?

Wonder why much food is oily? At home when i cook, i use little oil

Food in HK known to be 多油，多盐，多味精。
Mum had diarrhea on the first day when she was in HK.
Healthier in Vietnam and even Taiwan (deep fried stuff sold mainly in night markets). When I eat food which tends to be oily, guarantee will run to the loo...fortunately I'm at home.

Oily then yummy? But certainly not as healthy.

Visited the casinos?

That black stuff is the burnt? I thought some sauce added

Surely not...

This time round, we got a driver to bring us round and he drove to a shop called Margaret something. Very very popular for their eff tarts. According to him, the queue is normally an hour long. We were lucky - no queue. But after we got our egg tarts, a queue started forming. Not bad. Maybe guess it was still warm. But oily!

We don’t like the others. The joke is there’s actually a shop at TST., near our hotel. We walked past with our boxes of egg rolls, turned to go back in to get more goodies. They actually have a shop at Chinatown. Maybe you can pop in there if in the area to see if it’s the taste you remember.


There’s actually a shop that had major long queue. But its more popular for almond cookies leh.

Macau egg tarts are baked until a bit burnt on the top and the pastry is fluffy kind & oiler too. HK ones are never burnt and pastry is like pineapple tart kind of texture. I prefer the Macau ones.
