Description
Watercolor on Paper. The official name is "Antiga Confeitaria de Belém" ("Belem's Old confectionery") but everyone simply calls it "Pasteis de Belem" ("Belém Pastries").
Its pastries have become famous around the country and even the world, known internationally as "Portuguese custard tarts" or "pasteis de nata."
"Pastel de Nata" is the name of the very same tart when not made at this shop and sold around the country. Actually those are a national imitation because the ones at Antiga Confeitaria de Belem are not only the originals but also the best, made with a secret recipe since 1837. They come recommended in every guidebook, which explains the long lines outside the door.
You can pick some up to go, but also try them oven-warm in the beautifully tiled rooms inside.
