SANDS Resorts Macao is launching a selection of healthy and delicious menus using seasonal vegetables sourced from organic farms on the mainland as part of the “Sands Dining Sensations — Spring Organic Delights” promotion at 12 Sands Resorts Macao and Sands Macao restaurants until June 30. Timed to coincide with the Macao International Environmental Co-operation Forum and Exhibition, the promotional menus will be available at selected restaurants including Dynasty 8, Rice Empire, North, Brasserie, LotusPalace, Market Bistro, Café Express, Golden Court, Copa, Portofino, Canton and The Golden Peacock. Sands Resorts Macao chefs visited organic farms on the mainland in March, where they inspected produce, tested soil samples, reviewed supply chain processes and inspected hygiene standards. Around 30 different organic vegetables will be sourced from the farms. Healthier and better tasting, with higher levels of vitamins and minerals, organic vegetables are produced using methods that recycle resources, promote ecological balance and sustainability, restrict the use of pesticides and fertilizers and are not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents or synthetic food additives. Sourcing through organic farms on the mainland rather than overseas also reduces carbon footprint. With Macao named as a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy in late 2017, there has never been a better time to explore Sands Resorts Macao’s award-winning array of great dining options. Sample an authentic French afternoon tea at The Parisian Macao’s Brasserie, the famous seafood platter at The Venetian Macao’s Portofino, old Beijing noodles at North and spiced delights at Michelin-starred Indian restaurant, The Golden Peacock.
