Top choice in Macau
'Lisbon Space' is unique for its use of Portugal-inspired decor inside a Chinese village house. This two-storey restaurant in Coloane Village is known for its classic Portuguese dishes, including several tasty versions of açorda – bread cooked to a paste with eggs, olive oil and parsley; our favourite is the one with seafood that originated in the Alentejo region.
On weekdays the restaurant offers a two-course set menu for MOP$88.
