[🇵🇹Lisbon] Egg tart (nata) comparison! A thorough comparison of two super famous stores
Must-try Nata (Egg Tart) in Lisbon
When you visit Lisbon, you definitely want to try Pastel de Nata (Egg Tart). It is famous as a traditional Portuguese sweet, and is perfect to enjoy while taking a break at a cafe between sightseeing. This time, we compared the two major nata specialty shops in Lisbon, FABRICA DA NATA and Manteigaria!
Creamy? Sweet? The difference between the two famous shops
FABRICA DA NATA – Smooth and creamy melt-in-your-mouth
FABRICA DA NATA's nata has a crispy crust and a very smooth custard. It has a creamy and gentle taste, and you can really taste the richness of the eggs. It is not too sweet, so it goes great with coffee. There is a cafe space inside the store, so you can enjoy it at your leisure.
Manteigaria – Rich and sweet
On the other hand, Manteigaria's nata is characterized by a stronger sweetness than FABRICA DA NATA. The balance between the richness of the custard and the sweetness is exquisite, and the rich flavor spreads with every bite. They serve freshly baked nata in the store, so you can eat it hot right out of the oven.
Which do you recommend?
✔ If you like a creamy and smooth texture, choose "FABRICA DA NATA"
✔ If you like a rich and sweet taste, choose "Manteigaria"
Both are delicious, and it's fun to choose according to your preferences. If you come to Lisbon, we recommend trying both!
