Before exploring the streets of Macau, the 3 of us needed to get some energy from somewhere to power our legs. M decided that we should get our energy from Macau's most famous Portugese Egg Tarts.

Environment, Hygiene & Service:
Lord Stow's Bakery is along the canal inside the Venetian, which has a way easier access than its original branch, which is not quite in the tourist area. It was packed when we arrived, so we had no choice but to order our food to go. Hygiene seemed okay, and service was too brief to comment on.
Taste & Value:The Portuguese Tart ($8) was amazing! Although I thought it was smaller than usual, the size was actually perfect because sometimes these tarts are too filling, so this way, the small size made them just right. The tarts were warm, which is the best way to eat. The custard was pefect, as well as the crust. The caramalized top is the key. I was very satisfied when I was done.
Instead of having a tart, buddy J got something lighter. She got a slice of Angel Cake ($5). Quite cheap we all thought since the same slice would probably cost more than $10 at some famous coffee shops. The cake was soft, moist and bouncy. It had orange rinds throughout and was full of orange flavours. My friends really liked it, but since I don't like fruit flavoured food I didn't care much for it.
We also got a Chocolate Brownie ($12) to share for our ride back to Hong Kong. This brownie was quite big in size. This brownie had nuts in it, and was quite hard in texture. It didn't have much taste, so I would just say that it was soso.
Final Verdict:MUST GET THE TARTS!
