Seafood Risotto
Foodie PH | MACAO – August 4, 2025 – One of Macao’s top fine dining destinations, The Manor at The St. Regis Macao, has officially reopened with a bold new Mediterranean concept led by Executive Sous Chef Michele Dell’Aquila. Launched on August 1, the revamped menu brings the essence of the Mediterranean coast to Cotai, combining tradition, elegance, and a fresh burst of flavor in every dish.
What’s New?
Chef Michele Dell’Aquila’s latest culinary vision draws from the sun-soaked cuisines of Spain, Italy, Greece, and Southern France. The menu is crafted around honest, premium ingredients and showcases an authentic yet elevated approach to Mediterranean cooking. It’s not just about the food—it’s a full-sensory experience designed to transport diners straight to the Mediterranean.
Guests can expect refined yet rustic signature dishes such as the Greek Style Grilled Octopus with Kalamata olives and Pequinillo peppers, and the bold Piri-Piri Prawn, a nod to Portuguese spice trade history. The Grilled Spring Chicken with rosemary and heirloom carrots brings a smoky, herbaceous flair, while the Seafood Risotto layers prawn, squid, mussels, saffron, and tomato in rich, coastal harmony.
Mediterranean Vibes, Glass by Glass
Complementing the menu is a curated cocktail lineup inspired by coastal Europe. The Violet Horizon stirs violet liqueur and butterfly pea flower with Bombay gin for a floral-meets-fantasy finish, while the Marseille Mistral brings a savory twist with seaweed-infused whisky, citrus, and spice—a drink that feels like a seaside stroll through a Provençal market.
According to Chef Michele, the goal is to bring “warmth, heritage, and connection” to every table, creating an atmosphere where stories and flavors flow freely. Guests can select from à la carte offerings or indulge in a thoughtfully designed tasting menu, ideal for intimate dinners or upscale gatherings.
A Taste of the Mediterranean, Right in Cotai
The Manor’s reimagined concept highlights the parallels between Mediterranean culinary heritage and Macao’s own multicultural roots. Both share a love for bold flavors, slow meals, and the blending of cultures through food. The updated venue promises to be more than just a restaurant—it’s an elevated gathering place where East meets West, old meets new, and every bite tells a story.
