(Macao, May 17, 2016) – The Venetian® Macao’s one Michelin star Indian restaurant, The Golden Peacock will launch a new “Mango Mantra” special promotion showcasing fresh imported Indian mangoes.

“We strive to introduce new dining experiences for our guests by coming up with new creative menus.” said Paul Justin, Senior Chef of The Golden Peacock. “This time, we have prepared a variety of refreshing dishes made with alphonso mangoes freshly imported from India. ‘Mango Mantra’ is like a story book from which guests can get to know this ‘sacred’ fruit in India by taking them on a gourmet journey over several courses. I hope this summer twist will delight diners at The Golden Peacock.”
