Gwendal Poullennec, international director of the Michelin Guide, said Bib Gourmand establishments not only showcase “the thriving food culture that permeates” Macao, “but also highlight the many possibilities gourmets looking for great culinary experiences at affordable prices can enjoy.”
Michelin inspectors praised the “yesteryear glamour” of Kapok, the “no-frills, authentic Shun Tak cuisine” of Son Tak Kong and the “casual vibe” and bold flavours of Restaurante Litoral.
Bib Gourmand awards are given by Michelin to restaurants and street food purveyors that provide “delightful value-for-money gourmet experiences.”
