The ultimate guide to Lisbon’s iconic pastéis de nata
or egg tart, a creamy custard tart available inacross the city. The recipe dates back to the 16th century, when the confections, like many other Portuguese sweets, were made by nuns in convents. Now, locals eatat breakfast, in the midmorning, after lunch, or in the evening — any time they’re craving a snack.
Visitors to Lisbon could spend their entire trip eating these tarts in search of their favorite. Here are a few places to chase perfection.In Belém, Lisbon’s most touristy neighborhood, one of the longest lines is not for the 16th-century monastery Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, but for the dark blue pastelaria next door.
Manteigaria’s tarts are light with a thin, flaky crust, and the thick cream has the right hint of sweetness. Buy a few extra, because their tarts are just as good cold. Some of the recipes used by Confeitaria are secured under lock and key, including the recipe for their egg tart. It features a more dense and sweet custard, a nice contrast to the crispy and flaky layers of the pastry. The best move is to buy a dozen pastries: Fill half the box with egg tarts, and then add whatever other convent sweets catch your eye.Pastelaria Alcôa
