Manteigaria – June 22, 2024

Manteigaria is by far the best shop for the regional Portuguese custard pie. Rambling by memory took me within a block of this hilltop location. Then all I needed to do was follow a trail of people with custard pies in hand to find the shop.

A sheet of thin buttered dough it rolled creating extra flaky crust.
Rolls are sliced.
Slices of dough are pressed into tart pans with dampened thumbs.
Custard filled tarts hot from the oven.
A large brass bell mounted under the counter is rung when custard tarts are hot from the oven.
