There are Portuguese Restaurants, and there are Portuguese Restaurants with style. And the latter is where I would put this small homey restaurant called Antonio Restaurante at Taipa Island’s Old quarters, owned by Macau celebrity chef Antonio Coelho. We tagged along him that morning while he bought the ingredients he would use for the dishes he would serve that evening.
Pirates used to roam around Coloane, the Southern Region of Macau. But for the evening of our visit at Miramar Restaurant, there were no more pirates only us hungry visitors ready to devour any Portuguese food that would come on our table. A restaurant that started way back 1990′s, but closed at the turn of the decade, the establishment re-opened 2 years ago to again serve authentic Portuguese dishes on the quiet hillside of Coloane fronting Hac Sa Bay.
