    Damn, these were pretty good. Probably the best of the pastel de nata's that we tried in…read morePorto/Lisbon. I wanted to not like them because they're a massive tourist attraction but they were incredible, not as sweet as the ones from the other places, fresh out of the oven, super flaky crust. I'm a fan of a higher custard to crust ratio and this definitely hit the spot. Remember to add a bit of cinnamon on top to bring out the custard flavor more. There are three queues: one for sit-down service, one for the historical counter (whatever that may be, we didn't stick around long enough to check that out), and one for takeaway which is the fastest and basically had no line, where you can take one or four and enjoy them in one of the nearby parks. Also a gift shop a few steps away in case you want more Pasteis de Belem!

    With such a rich history and love for the pastel de nata, I've been excited to try the pastry at…read morePasteis de Belem, dining in. Shout out to the staff for being quick and efficient at filling the tables and helping people locate their ideal spots. There is plenty of seating both inside the building and outside. The restaurant walls are adorned with beautifully designed blue tiles which adds to the warming and communal theme. Now to start, the pastel de nata here is pretty amazing. First, you have the multiple layers and crunchy, crispy texture from the buttery crust. Then you have the delicately whipped sweet custard which practically melts in your mouth. What takes this to the next level is adding a punch of cinnamon on top, which gives it a punch of warmth and is satisfying on the palate. To mention the mango milkshake, it was ok but I would call out that it didn't have much sweetness to it as I assume the mangos used were not fully ripe. That would be the one piece of feedback but otherwise, it tastes very bright and refreshing which is perfect for a hot Lisbon day. For a future time I want to try the sandwiches as these also seem to be a hit and are recommended by a lot of people! This place is definitely worth the hype and I'm glad I was able to stop by!

    We stopped by this location near the Jerónimos Monastery and had a really lovely breakfast overall!…read moreThe Cured Salmon Benedict was the absolute star of the show. The eggs were poached absolutely perfectly, and the runny yolk soaked into the beautifully light brioche bun. The flavor profile was excellent; the dollop of herbed cream cheese paired incredibly well with the fresh spinach and the punch of the pickled red onion. My only tiny personal critique is that I wished the salmon itself was just a bit saltier, leaning closer to a traditional lox, but it was still incredibly flavorful and satisfying. For drinks, it was a bit of a mixed experience. I ordered the Iced Pistachio Latte, which unfortunately left me a little underwhelmed. It wasn't a bad drink by any means, but the pistachio flavor just wasn't very prominent. On the plus side, my friend ordered the Iced Tiramisu Latte, and hers was absolutely delicious and packed with flavor. Overall, it's a great spot with high-quality food and a fantastic location.
