A classic Portuguese drink to cool off, refreshing and familiar.
WOW!!! Just WoW! Absolutely amazing. The most unexpected find. Even better than their signature. Real and authentic, with a buttery rich crust filled with oozing custard creaminess. It was not the standard custardy type you might expect. This was softer, smoother, and creamier, with more fragrance thanks to cinnamon powder and lemon peel added during preparation. Less eggy compared to the local classic. Sprinkle more cinnamon powder provided on the table for extra enjoyment.
This is their signature but I find it pretty mid. The crust at the edge was tough to bite, though still flaky. The beef filling could have been more savoury, and it was served somewhere between cold and lukewarm, which made it less enjoyable. A warmer pastry would have elevated the experience.
After exploring Ruins of Saint Paul’s and Monte Fort, I continued my walk downwards to the next location. Along the way, I passed by a pastry shop opened by Portuguese chef brothers. This is a place not many will know unless you stumble upon it by chance.
I looked at their menu and food cabinets from outside, and the beef pastry caught my interest first, followed by the egg tart. I decided to have a set and dine in. The place is quite small, fitting about 10–12 pax at most, which gives it a cosy but limited feel.
