Lisbon's Pastéis de Nata, please Sir, can i have a couple more?

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

I swear, on their own, I can eat 4 of these in one sitting. Slightly bigger than those found in Mark's and Spencer, they are still a lot less intake compared to a slice of cake. 

Apologies as I don't count the calories🤣

Located near the Rozzio metro station and Hardrock's cafe along Liberdade Ave.

The BEST pastéis de Nata in town

This was the place we were taken to by our walking tour guide in Lisbon last May. It's not the best known shop for this pastry in Lisbon, but to a local, IT IS THE BEST.

Who would say otherwise?



On entering the shop, the bakery is to the left side, separated by a glass wall. 

Egg custard on the raw! Already creamy and delicious from where I was standing.


Before and after.


The chef or the pastéis de nata?


Apparently, the technique to get that perfect crust of the pastry was to thinly spread it before pouring the egg custard liquid. 

Maybe? I can't bake so please ask @allasyummyfood😁

Et voila!


Limited with words, all I can say is that "savour each bite!" Chew slowly and enjoy the yumminess of each pastéis de nata.

You may close your eyes!

I would have wanted to compare this to that of Belem but I couldn't be bothered. Seriously you guys, believe me, these are awesome! 

@sjennon did say "they were effin delicious!!!" 🤣 Compared to those tiny ones during the registration in HF Lisboa. Apparently as I didn't try any.

Ready to go home? 

Each box contains 6 pieces and goes in their cute company paper bag. Classy!


Newly bought, they were still warm to eat. 

Although they say that they're still good within 48 hours, the pastry after 24 hours have lost its' crusty flakes and it became gummy to chew. The custard too tasted different. 

My housemates didn't mind.


Direction: 

With the Parque Eduardo behind you from Marquez de Pombal, walk straight along Liberdade Avenue to Rossio.

When you reach Hardrock Cafe to your left, the building after it have a lot shops in its' lower ground. 

It can't be missed as it's the only one with the table and chairs at its' front. 

Bon appétit!


Fancy trying to bake some? Here is @allsyummyfood's post from few days ago.

congratulations for the beautiful place you have visited, it looks amazing, the products look very delicious, I must admit that they opened my appetite
Thank you very much dear friend @immarojas for this wonderful work.
I wish you a great day

And u..thanks for the visit. I must say nothing beats Steemfest😍

It's great that you could attend, for us who live in Argentina is very far, it must have been a real privilege to have visited the biggest event of our beloved platform.
I congratulate you dear friend @immarojas

There's a hearsay that the next one will be in North America..or somebody must just be wishing. Only because x2 it have been in Europe.

They look truly delicious!! I so want one right now!!

You better go to Lisbon..unless you can find one there or you could bake some?

That would be a long trip - but someday ...... You know, I used to love to bake and cook and all - now, not so much anymore. And for me, it is probably better to just buy one instead of having lots in the house :)

The neighbour's cats might want some?

Cafe...??

Tiny one.

oo yes.
very practical .. !!
Pleased to meet you

Looks so yummy!

They are!!! Ever been to Lisbon? That shop isnt hard to find.

Unfortunately, I'm not, but Lisbon on my list of wishes :))))

You must visit @pepe.maya
