Food Porn: Colorful egg custard tarts

Filed under: Snacks , East Coast , Food Porn , Food Oddities , On the Blogs , Eggs Egg custard tarts are one of the best things you can get at a good Chinese bakery and a great incentive to go out for dim sum around lunchtime. They have a flaky, melt-in-your-mouth crust and a tender, eggy filling. I have never before seen them in multiple colors like these tarts that Tien Mao got at the Egg Custard King Cafe in New York. The tarts in the photo are flavored with almond, strawberry, honey dew, and mango, but the cafe offers other varieties, including traditional, banana and egg white, as well. The tarts are only 60-75¢, so be sure to pick up one or two if you're visiting. [Via Gothamist ] Read     Permalink     Email this     Linking Blogs     Comments
