Picture
The house specialty with this well-known cafe is often a buttery egg-custard pastry that had been first baked by Catholic monks inside the 17th century. 
Pastéis de Belem is among the busiest and finest known pastry shops within a country noted for mouth-watering sweets. No matter when you, you’ll likely find lines outside. It’s really worth the wait after you bite into the thin flaky crust and warm egg-custard center of an pastel de nata, Lisbon’s signature pastry.

Legend has it these local treats were first baked from the late 17th century by Catholic monks with the nearby Jeronimos Monastery. Back then, the monasteries made money by preserve chicken farms that produced large packages of eggs. While the egg whites were on the go for from starching clothes to make port wine, the leftover yolks were put to use for baked goods for example the delicious pastel de nata.
Pastéis de Belem’s doors have already been open since 1837. It’s customary to enjoy their most favored pastry liberally sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered sugar. A café latte or perhaps a glass of milk complement nicely with this particular treat. There is also a range of other jam-filled and chocolate-iced goodies from which to choose, that serves to want to put this stop on the itinerary more often than once.
Pastéis de Belem is located inside Belem neighborhood and it is easily accessible by tram and bus. The shop is open daily. Prices are reasonable along with the atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious. Be forewarned that there’s ordinarily a wait for a table and you will have to speak approximately get a waiter’s attention within this busy place.
 
Visit nearby attractions for example the Jeronimos Monastery, the location where the pastel de nata was
thought to happen to be invented. The historic Belem district depends on the waterfront there are many monuments devoted to Portugal’s explorers.
