"Her signature dish is galinha à Africana (African chicken), barbecued chicken smothered in red spicy sauce. Although garlic, chilli, paprika and coconut are staple ingredients in this Macanese favourite, every restaurant makes it differently and Manuela makes hers with peanut in the sauce – this makes it thicker and tastier than you’ll find elsewhere. I tuck in to mine with gusto and find myself hoping this full-on flavour-punch of a dish is served anywhere back home in London."

"Best Macanese and Portuguese Restaurants in Macau: Restaurante Litoral - Try the minchi beef or pork cooked with potatoes, onions, soy sauce. The portions are belt busting."

"The highlight of the lunch was the Galinha Africana (African chicken) MOP180 which was really good. I just kept on nibbling on the juicy and spicy pieces of chicken."
"The African chicken was amazingly tender, juicy and packed with sooooo much flavor!"
"This African chicken is one of the best in town – you can smell the fat half bird, swathed in a thick layer of peanut and tomato sauce, before it arrives."
"African chicken is a Macanese creation and is tender, moist and rich in flavour and a definite must-try."
"The name may not be very appealing, but this layered, chilled pudding is quite a treat. Sweet biscuits, cream and condensed milk come together to make this semifreddo-like dessert, topped with a generous sprinkling of finely powdered biscuits (hence, sawdust)."

"The taste is awesome with the creamy taste and the crunchy crushed biscuits with it. Just like it should be."
