This was always a favorite lunch spot when I worked nearby - the Portuguese grandmother I never had, cooking me awesome lunch almost every day. They’re definitely listed in Portuguese travel guides, judging by how many Portuguese tourists are always there. Smart. Some even BYO it with some wine - I love that touch, too.
In terms of texture and appearance this is probably the best pastel de nata in Newark. Crispy crust & a creamy but set golden custard that reminds me of Manteigaria in Lisbon. However, it's a bit too sweet.
I stop in any time I'm in Newark. They carry the thick Portuguese style toast that I've only ever had on my many trips to Portugal. Coffee is great. They also have a variety of Portuguese pastries.
