    Landeau - Chocolate cake

Highly recommend this place.

    When you're making the best chocolate cake in the world, why would your menu be large or…read morecomplicated? 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.

    Usually not a fan of chocolate cake, but this one was legit. A slice of chocolate cake runs you…read more5.30 euros, and it's not too sweet. Large enough to share, but small enough that you don't feel guilty indulging. The cake itself is three layers of perfection - a chocolate cake base, chocolate mousse middle, and a dusting of cocoa powder on top. Perfect way to get out of the afternoon heat with a cup of cafe com gelo!

    We got the hyped up chocolate cake, heralded by the NY Times, in their piece, "The Chocolate Cake…read moreThat Saved My Vacation" and dubbed one of the best in the world. With a spare day in Lisbon, we headed to LX Factory for a ride on the tram and a look around at the art and the vibe. I researched whether there was anything unique, or considered a must-try to eat or drink there, and lo and behold, it was the cake. We ate a few blocks away, but before leaving the area, we returned for dessert to try this cake. The cool coffee shop was very airy and green, with lots of seating, both indoors and out. It wasn't busy when we were there, so I ordered a slice to share with my two littles, who devoured it! I guess I should have ordered two! It was light and airy, with a smooth, rich brownie bottom layer. The cake was flavorful and light, in the best way. I could have lingered longer here with a coffee as well, but with two antsy littles in tow, I wouldn't have enjoyed my coffee much, but the cake hit the spot. If you find yourself at LX Factory, definitely get the cake! I don't really have a sweet tooth, nor love desserts that much, but this cake was great and not too sweet. It's not worth a special trip for, but definitely don't skip if you're at LX Factory and craving a sweet treat. I don't think it's the best in the world, but yeah, it's good!

    I thought after Pasteis de Belem I wasn't going to get a pastel de nata that good again, but that's…read moreuntil I came here. The one from here was absolutely amazing. The layers of pastry on the outside were super thick - the most amount of layers I've seen on the double-digit ones that I've eaten. This makes the crunch earth-shattering, but still so easy to bite through. The pastry layers cascade down into the center, creating ripples of individual crunches along the way that is so immensely satisfying to consume. But what's truly spectacular is the inside. Upon the first bite, the custardy center oozes out like molten lava. You better make sure you have a plate under this, because the bright yellow goo is as addicting to taste as it is dangerous to your hands or clothing. The flavor is simply perfect - just the right amount of sweetness, citrus, and egginess. It's honestly unbelievable how good and irresistible this is. Comparing it to Pasteis de Belem, I think I would actually put this slightly over. The extra layers and the more liquidy center just do it for me. That's an iconic place, but comparing simply on what I liked better, I think this takes the cake (or tart). Overall, pretty close to the best baked good I've ever had. 9.75/10

    So this is a delayed review--going thru my drafts and trying to write the ones I missed a while…read moreback! Came in April 2022 for a light morning snack based on seeing good reviews. Based on the items I ordered, everything was just passable. Maybe I'm not really appreciating the difference in textures between similar pastries in different countries, but even compared to several other bakeries and cafes in Lisbon, this was my least favorite. (Overall outside of pasteis de nata, I found pastries and baked goods in Portugal to be a bit drier, breadier, and sweeter than some other countries.) The chocolate croissant I ordered used melted chocolate sprinkles on top and inside, and the bread was laminated on the outside but kinda dense and dry on the inside, no airy pockets, just bready. The palmier tasted a bit stale, like when a crispy cookie has been sitting out and softened. The croquettes were average. The espresso was pretty normal. I sat outside since it was a nice day, they had a number of tables and patrons dining outside. They seemed to be understaffed bc it took a while for the server to come out and take my order, though the food came pretty quickly once ordered. Inside it's a very old-school feel, very ornate with many mirrors and liquor shelves along the wall. Not sure about prices now though will say in 2022 they were very reasonable.
