Travel: Macau 2015

Let me share with you my travel memories in Macau late last year! Yes, this short weekend trip was one quite unforgettable, not only because I lost my iPhone (Lol!) but of course with my new discoveries of what to eat and visit in Macau. We still ended up visiting The Venetian, Ruins of St. Paul and Galaxy which are some of Macau's famous tourist destination. We had a quick 1 day visit in Macau but it was totally worth it. Macau is a place surely you will fall in love with!

INSTAGRAM JUNE 2014

The year 2014 was quite a fast forward for me as June represents the mid part of the year and that means we have surpassed a lost have of the year. Better than usual, I have made this month on a balance between work & travel necessities. I was able to have my vacation in Hong Kong & Macau & not only that, I also had my longest vacation back to my homeland to enjoy some good break from the stresses of my OFW life. So hope you guys enjoy my photo diary for Instagram June 2014 post. Stay awesome everyone!

Rice Empire Macau

No restaurant takes notion of "rice cuisine" as seriously as Rice Empire located at Sans Cotai Central making it as the perfect location for a lunch or dinner hour for a perfect & relaxing meal. I'm fully satisfied with their wide selections on Asian & Cantonese cuisine wherein menu offerings will range from rice, noodle, dumplings, meat, congee, cold fish & desserts too.

I had the Fried Rice with Minced Beef & Kimchi which was a good choice since I'm a Korean food lover. The rice quality was superb & really compliments well with its chili paste & minced beef. Their dumplings are a must try, so authentic & fresh it feels like it melts in your mouth with all the flavours infused inside. Since I don't eat pork I wasn't able to have a taste of their braised pork belly but my friends told me it was undoubtedly the best braised pork he had so far. The braised beef noodle, having the delicious smell from the broth, creating flavours that was put into one bowl is the kind of delicious that stops conversation.

Macau 2014

It's nice to be back in Macau again since I first visited this place back in 2012. Whenever you visit Hong Kong since it's just a ferry ride away, you shouldn't miss the Las Vegas of Asia. This place is definitely a bucket list for everyone as Macau offers nothing but the best of entertainment & ultimate travel experience from night life to their must see tourist spot like Venetian Macau & Ruins of St. Paul's 

I made a day tour in Macau on a Saturday & will share with you my travel photo diary and will share some tips on must see & eat in Macau. From Hong KOng, you have to take a ferry ride at Hong Kong Central Ferry Terminal (ferry price range 120- 200 HKD). We took the Cotai Water Jet for a 45 min ride to Taipa Ferry Terminal & went straight ahead to Holiday Inn Macau to meet a friend working there. We spent an hour strolling around Holiday Inn, Sands & Sheraton Hotel.

We had some authentic Chinese noodles for late lunch (food price range75-150 HKD) & afterwards we spent the rest of the day taking some touristy photo shoots inside the ever stunning Venetian Macau interior. I never got tired looking around the busy crowd panic shopping, burning cash in casinos & enjoying the man made cloud view & the famous boat ride in the Venetian. We also went outside to catch the night scene of Macau & I was still captivated by the view overlooking Hard Rock, City of Dreams & Crown Hotel with its amazing night scenery.

You don't have to worry about transportation here in Macau as most of hotels here offer free shuttle ride . Going inside the hotels, casinos & malls requires no specific requirements or entrance fee so you can go everywhere you want. Even though we wanted to go more places but due to time limitations, we weren't able to visit other famous tourist spot like Macau Tower & Macau Museums & famous churches. The cost of living in Macau is similar with Hong Kong so if you're planning for a day tour here, a pocket money of $300 SGD or Php 10,000 will be enough.

POSTCARDS FROM HONGKONG & MACAU

We live in a world that is full of beauty, charm & adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.
