The customer in front of me bought 4 dozen egg tarts. I watched in sheer horror as the fragrant golden yellow pastries disappeared before my own eyes. Thankfully there were two shop assistants and one of them entertained my request. I managed to get my egg tart. It was delicious. Traditional pie crust, not Portugese-style, is my thing. It was buttery yet not too crumbly and its aromas were mouth-watering. The eggy custard was still piping hot, sweet and silky smooth, melted in your mouth almost
Traditional pie crust, not Portugese-style, is my thing. It was buttery yet not too crumbly and its aromas were mouth-watering. The eggy custard was still piping hot, sweet and silky smooth, melted in your mouth almost. It tasted very much of egg. Note that the custard is super custardy so sharing this tart might not be a good idea - half an egg tart isn't sightly! A sweet sugary glaze coated the top, giving the tart a sweet end to the pleasantly savory crust. The only grievance is that the bottom of the tart is a bit too thin - it may break under the weight and moistness of the hot custard if you lift it out of the foil cups, as did I. Bits of pastry fell into the plastic bag and I could not help but recover them. I finished the tart in less than 3 minutes. Given another day I would've finished 3 in 3 minutes. However, given that I'd just had lunch at Loyal Dining, the record is not bad. It was a sudden craving - I felt slightly guilty afterwards. So I headed up to the gym.
