【Macau, May 15^th, 2018】 The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner (it takes place on June 18^th this year), and that means we are gearing up to feast on one of our favourite Chinese holiday treats: glutinous rice dumplings.  Hotel Royal Macau’s award-winning Shanghainese restaurant, Catalpa Garden, has prepared two tempting, authentic Shanghainese flavours to all sticky rice dumpling fans this holiday. Not only are the great news to the Shanghainese who crave for home food, but also interesting options for those discerning customers who like to explore various food culture. Advanced reservations are accepted now. Upon spending MOP 300 or above in any sticky rice dumplings from now until May 27^th, 2018, patrons can enjoy a 15% discount!

When compared with the more common Cantonese sticky rice dumplings, the Shanghainese ones emphasize different layers of aroma.  The ancient fare consists of perfectly steamed glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo leaves and stuffed with either savoury fillings or delicious sweet. For the savoury Glutinous Rice Dumpling with Pork (MOP 41 each), chefs at Catalpa Garden handpick premium pork braised with the restaurant’s signature Shanghainese sauce which brings great flavour and bright colour to every bite.  It is so rich in taste that there is no need to dip any more sauce like what people usually do when eating the Cantonese dumplings.

For those who prefer their dumplings sweet, Catalpa Garden has also created the Glutinous Rice Dumpling with Mashed Red Bean (MOP 33 each) which are composed of top-quality red beans, sweetened glutinous rice and chef’s secret ingredients to elevate this traditional, home-made recipe to an upscale level. Exquisite box sets are also available at MOP 148 per box so for our guests to share these mouth-watering sticky treats to your family and friends.
