Over the past decade, Soi Nana in Chinatown has transformed from a street of traditional Chinese medicine shops into a destination for bars, cafes and restaurants. The latest addition, Cataplana, brings Portuguese and Mediterranean flavours to the area, with Cafe de Nata on the ground floor serving coffee, pastel de nata (custard tart) and bifana sandwiches by day and cocktails and tapas by evening. Founded by Thai event executives alongside Portuguese and Macanese hoteliers and restaurateurs, Cataplana offers shareable small bites, hearty stews such as its namesake cataplana, premium grilled meats and fresh daily raw fish sourced from Phuket. Desserts include dark chocolate mousse, French toast and traditional Portuguese tecolameco, while a Mediterranean-focused wine list rounds out the experience.
