Portugal is one of the best kept secrets in Europe though it is becoming more popular … the best part is you can go from region to region and have a new pastry to taste, but the most famous and most pleasurable are the pasteis de nata em belem and when my aunt and uncle came to visit they secretly ordered a dozen and brought them to their hotel room and ate them until they were sick … can you blame them though? carrie |
