The Parisian Macao’s signature restaurant Brasserie presents a celebratory four-course set menu from May 1 to 31, 2021 as part of French GourMay 2021, an annual French food and wine festival that takes place in Hong Kong and Macau throughout the month. The theme of this year’s festival is a ‘food art journey with a taste of surrealism’. In addition to the usual authentic French flavors on offer at Brasserie, diners can expect highly aesthetic plate presentation and a colorful feast for the senses.
Guests start the meal with an appetizer of marinated yellowfin tuna and compressed watermelon and tomato water with beetroot coulis which presents an explosion of vivid red, like paint across a palette. The second course combines prime beef tartare with shoestring potatoes, topped with quail egg and wheatgrass, to artfully convey a rustic farm scene. The main courses of roasted Barbary duck breast with fig carpaccio, poached fig, parsnip puree, and port wine jus evokes a classic French country impressionist painting, while prawns with smoked arctic char, scallop, and salmon incorporate sauerkraut, squid ink, and white butter sauce to create a surreal black and white checkerboard. Finally, a dessert comprising yogurt mousse, apricot jelly, and peach sherbet suggests an intriguing still life.
