Sweetened black sesame rolls Baked custard puff pastries with coconut juice A journey for the senses, this dining experience is not just about food. Visually, the hallmark of the restaurant stands in the centre of the room, an imposing stone sculpture from Nanjing featuring Chinese dragons wrapped around a giant column. This work of art is complemented by installations along several of the walls, down which water flows softly over textured cream-coloured stone. Diners feast on sumptuous dishes made from the freshest ingredients in the comfort of high-backed chairs in cream with bright pink, purple, green or blue Chinese silk draped down the back. The overall effect is an atmosphere that marries understated tones with the bold qualities of typical Chinese architecture and the universally recognised, mouth-watering tastes of traditional Chinese cooking. Imperial Court is the perfect setting for a private affair, to entertain important guests or to enjoy a family gathering. High doors with opaque glass detailing separate the six private rooms on the periphery of the restaurant from the inviting main area. Some of the rooms have their own flat-screen televisions, as well as personal lounge areas for pre-dinner drinks or after-dinner tea and conversation. The restaurant blends traditional, fresh ingredients with the trademarks of Chinese cooking philosophy. For work, for play, for everything in between, Imperial Court is a signature restaurant like no other, creating exquisite dishes by royal decree.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[314,9,320,463,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6326","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-china","category-hotels","category-macau","category-michelin","category-restaurants"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Imperial Court MGM Macau Review: Signature Cantonese Fine Dining by Award-Winning Chef Chow Chung<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Imperial Court at MGM Macau is a signature Chinese restaurant showcasing refined Cantonese cuisine by award-winning Chef Chow Chung.
