What makes it special is watching the pastries being handmade right in front of you, which adds a level of freshness and craftsmanship that you can actually taste. The service was super fast and friendly. The pastel de nata came out perfectly, with that delicate flaky crust and warm custard that just hits differently when you know it was made moments ago. The espresso was equally impressive, rich and smooth, and the two together make for a simple but near perfect combination. If you are in the area, this is an easy and very satisfying stop.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Oh no. Am I the only one who doesn't like the pastel de nata custard tarts this restaurant is so…read morefamous for? The crust was super flaky and the tart was nice and warm out of the oven, but I didn't like the flavor of the custard. I did forget to add cinnamon to the top, but I don't think it would have helped me personally. The woman who stood next to me at the counter had a nearly orgasmic experience next to me, so it's obvious that my taste buds are apparently off. I loved the patience of the server, who got confused when I told her I wanted to eat in but wanted to take water to go. Note to self...Portuguese folks want to have their "to go" as "takeaway." What I also didn't know was that there was no place to sit!! I scooted down the counter just like all the other folks to watch the bakers prep the next gozillion pastries for the day. That was interesting. Then, I didn't know how to bus my dishes. I just left them on the counter like all the other folks and went away. I wouldn't skip going because of my personal taste buds, though. Enjoy it for yourself and let me know if you have a different opinion than I did!

That is exactly the "good" problem Landeau has as besides their famous chocolate cake, all they have are beverages, inadvertently making their sign outside with the proclamation "When in doubt, try chocolate cake!" kind of hilarious. Once you've huffed and puffed your way up one of Lisbon's stairmaster hills, the darkened and vintage feeling interior of this particular Landeau feels very welcome. Although there is ample seating for the size of this store, the ample line of people waiting to get in from the outside might make getting a seat difficult nonetheless. I do like the regular lattes here but let's face it, any beverage you get here is really meant to be a sidekick to the main star of the show, Landeau's famous chocolate cake. And it is indeed, the best slice of chocolate cake you'll ever have, and that is not hyperbole. Layered and textured, but pillowy and light, it's really difficult to describe what a beautiful heavenly experience eating a chocolate cake at Landeau is. It's like treating your mouth to the most sumptuous and comforting experience it's ever going to have when eating something and you never want to end. And for under 5 euros, it almost feels like a steal. I really do consider going to a Landeau one of the highlights of my trip to Lisbon and urge everyone to put it on their must eats here. Even yes, over the egg tarts.

I've tried Amorino at Rua de Augusta in downtown Lisbon, but when we went shopping in Vasco da Gama…read moreshopping center near Oriente, I was surprised to see that they have a kiosk right there, on the ground floor, at the end of the mall away from the station. Amorino is a rather large chain which started in Paris, with many stores in Europe, as well as outposts in the U.S., in Mexico, Saudi Arabia and S. Korea! Well, unfortunately I do not live in a city where they have shops, so I have to visit Amorino while traveling. They are known for the rose petal shaped gelato cones. After seeing them online, I've tried making one at home. Needless to say, my pathetic attempts did not look floral, or any nameable thing, at all. In all honesty, I am a bit disappointed, the gelato rose is not as well crafted as the ones I've seen online. There is an option of adding a macaron on top as well. The staff here are nicer than the downtown location and very helpful with the sampling; you can pick multiple flavors for your cone. Flavor-wise, both the gelato and macaron are delicious, but not great, but that's probably because I like a more intense flavor.

Simply fantastic. An amazing ice cream. Also has option for gluten free ice cream cones :)read more

Five stars for how fast the waitress has to work here. This place gets very busy (especially since…read moreit's in a highly touristic area of Sintra), and even more so in rainy hours when everyone is trying to hide indoors. They mostly offer pastries and beverages, but despite one person managing all the tables, our order was accurate and came out quickly. We were able to escape the rain for a bit and fuel up with sugar and coffee. Fun historical note: the bakery was established in 1862 (164 years ago!) by baker Amaro dos Santos and his wife Constância Gomes, and it is now managed by the fifth generation of the family, which makes the quick coffee stop feel even more special.

So our fabulous food tour guide really hit it out of the park for me with the later stops, and this…read moresmall patisserie place, which was the 4th stop on the tour, was another winner for me! So firstly - the specialty here is not a Pasteis de Nata, but instead its a dessert called Pastel Feijão (hence the titular name of this place), which is more popular in the North of Portugal. The pastry filling here is not egg, but instead a mix of white beans (which are displayed in a jar on the table outside, so mystery solved ;-) and almonds. So if you have vegan/ vegetarian friends visiting Lisbon who cant eat the Pasteis de Nata, well then this place absolutely comes to the rescue! Biting into this is like tasting a heavenly pillow of deliciousness. The bean taste disappears and what you are left with is a lovely almond-y smooth taste (and it does not taste anything like almond-butter, but more earthy and fresh). The closest comparison probably is the creme brulee- like soft and milky texture. The Pastry Chef has won tons of rewards and his Pastel Feijão definitely was a winner for me. I'll be coming back here again when my travels next bring me back to Lisboa. Note - Day 3 of Lisbon, Portugal adventures Yelp 202/ 2019

I'm a sucker for a gelateria with good artisanal flavors and this really hit the spot! I was here…read morea while back on vacation with some friends and we happened to run into this place while walking back to our AirBnB. Given you run into a thousand gelaterias while walking around Lisbon, I'm so glad we walked into this one! The store wasn't too busy when we popped by so we really had time to try some flavors out! Usually with gelato flavors, I like to stick to things that are a little less sweet or those that are more fruity. I ultimately went with the stracciatella and the coffee/espresso that they had but was able to sample some of the fruity flavors before that! Each flavor was perfect, light, and not too creamy. In fact, the fruit flavors had this brightness to them that was really refreshing! I was ultimately really happy with the two flavors I chose -- neither was too rich or heavy and the perfect snack for a warm, sunny afternoon. If I find myself back in Lisbon sometime soon (I hope so!), I'll definitely make my way back here. Try it out!
