The Bestest Portuguese Egg Tarts

For me, the best Portuguese Egg Tarts came from this shop. Choi Heong Yuen Bakery has been in the confectionery business for 75 years already! There are 10 outlets throughout Macau.

Signage

The shop that we went to was at Avenida de Almeida Riberio, opposite Senado Square. The shop was brightly lit, clean, and staffed with many helpful employees. Free samples were offered to tempt customers to buy more! And there were plenty to sample!!

Inside the shop

The Portuguese Egg Tarts sat in display case in front of the shop and sold for MPO6.00 per piece. We just happened to try it. And then we fell in love with it. So we returned daily to buy. ;p

Tempting egg tarts

The crust was light, flaky and crispy, the surface perfectly browned.

Yum...

The custard was in a perfect consistency, really smooth, rich, creamy and not too sweet.

To die for . . .

Eat it bit by bit to savour the custard filling. It literally transports you to cloud nine. ;))

In fact, it was so good that I bought half a dozen back to Malaysia!

Yummilicious ...

I bought this Portuguese Egg Tart from Mr. Siew Bao @ Hutong Lot 10, for RM1.80.

See the difference? You haven't eaten egg tarts till you have eaten those from Choi Heong Yuen. A must-eat in Macau!
