Postcards from Lisbon: Our Custard Tarts, the famous ‘Pastel de Nata’. To help you in your quest to reach pastry heaven, we have compiled a guide to the best pastel de natas Lisbon has to offer. In almost every pastelaria (pastry shop) across Lisbon, you will find this typical treat, however not all pastel de natas were created equally. Pastel de natas are now so popular that they have travelled across the globe – just like the Portuguese did 500 years ago – and can be found from London to Tokyo to Melbourne, but there is something about eating a traditional dish while you’re in the place that it comes from that makes it taste that little bit sweeter. Traditionally dusted with cinnamon, the best pastel de natas are still warm from the oven and can be devoured in two or three delectable mouthfuls.
