Fancy Cantonese fine dining in Macau? You should check out Canton 喜粵at Venetian Macau-Resort-Hotel. They are one of the 2013 Hong Kong’s Tatler Best Restaurants and they are proud to offer Chinese cuisine with Canton origin as well as dim sum for “yum char”.

Located at Casino Level 1018, Canton offers a very sleek and modern ambience for its guests. Like the Venetian Macau, the restaurant is designed to impress.

Where you are dining as a couple, in a group or even in a group function, dining at Canton gives a very comfortable and cozy environment. Thus, you will be pampered by their attentive staffs and their services are second to none.

Canton is not all about Cantonese style dim sum as they offer Cantonese cuisine as well. Canton is a city in China (now more known as Guangzhou) is a food haven. There is a saying you have the best food in Guangzhou. In Canton, the main dialect is Cantonese and it widely used in Hong Kong and Macau. I am more than delighted to taste some of the Cantonese cuisine at Canton Venetian Macau.

Shanghai Dumplings – “Xiao Long Bao”

Shanghai Dumplings – “Xiao Long Bao” might not come from Canton but they are sure good. A tasty xiao long bao depends on the thickness of the skin, how many folds of the dumpling, the broth within the dumpling as well as the meat. The best way to eat xiao long bao is to compliment with vinegar and ginger.
