These commercially endorsed recommendations are usually 'safe bets' rather than really fucking good. If you have experience with the area, stick to your own suggestions because the recommendations are usually for those who have zero experience/knowledge of the place.
When I was in Macau a few years ago, we were taken around by a relative of a family friend. He took us to all the tourist areas, but that's what is expected. Porkchop bun is pretty standard (they used to have them in honolulu cafe in Richmond which tasted similar imo, not sure if they still do) and I just remember eating a lot of fish and tomato
The also had ice cream with powdered graham crackers of some sort, they called it 'mook hong' ice cream which translated to saw dust. I thought that was pretty tasty heh.
