Here, the banknotes in circulation are Macau patacas, and the common language is Cantonese. In addition to locals, the pedestrians on the road are mostly tourists and laborers from all over the world.
In my first year of work, I would excitedly go sightseeing in various tourist areas in Macau with my friends, follow the food guides on the Internet and check out the places one by one, and send home my favorite butcher shops and almond cakes.
Slowly, I discovered that these "must-visit attractions" and "must-eat delicacies" marked online were places that most locals would not go to, and there would not be many surprises other than crowds of people.
As a Cantonese, after comparison, I feel that the various old restaurants in Macao, such as cured meat, porridge noodles, and double skin milk, are not as delicious as those in Guangdong.
