The 8 Restaurant at the Grand Lisboa is famous for its exquisite dim sum creations and its modern take on Cantonese classics, such as steamed grouper fillet with crispy black bean and garlic, crystal blue shrimp dumplings in goldfish shape, and crispy cha siu bao, rendered more luxuriously than in traditional recipes. The 8 is also visually inspiring for its centrepiece pond, set below a hanging crystal globe that resembles the figure 8, and symbolising good fortune.

The menu is packed with 150 dishes, 40 dim sum choices and 17,000 wine labels, while the restaurant can host up to 164 diners, plus 10 to 24 guests in each of its six private dining rooms.
