Egg Tart Heaven at Lord Stow’s Bakery: The Macau Must-Try Delight!

 


If Macau were a culinary kingdom, Lord Stow’s Bakery would be the reigning monarch of egg tarts. Nestled in the glitzy Londoner Macau mall, this gem serves egg tarts so divine they might make you reconsider life’s purpose. Armed with an appetite and MOP13 for each tart, I ventured into the buttery, flaky abyss. Spoiler alert: it’s a delicious descent.

The Setting: Egg Tart Royalty in a Modern Kingdom

The Londoner Macau is a shiny beacon of modern architecture, but let’s be honest, the real crown jewel here is Lord Stow’s Bakery. Walking in, you’re greeted with a warm smile and the comforting aroma of fresh pastry – it’s like a hug for your soul, but tastier.

The space itself is cozy, charming, and buzzing with people eager to get their hands on the famous egg tarts. It’s a reminder that good food doesn’t need to shout; it lets the flavours do the talking.

The Egg Tart: Crispy, Creamy, Charred Perfection

Let’s dive into the star of the show: the egg tart. At first glance, it’s a beauty. A perfectly caramelised top glistens with promise, hinting at the custard glory beneath.

The Crust: Layers of Love

This crust is no ordinary pastry – it’s a symphony of thin, buttery, and crispy layers. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch, followed by a delicate melt-in-your-mouth finish. It’s like eating a flaky dream.

The Filling: Custard Goldmine

The custard filling is where the magic happens. Rich, creamy, and just the right amount of sweet, it’s like a velvety custard hug. The texture? Utterly smooth, with a melt-on-your-tongue softness that makes it impossible to stop at one (or five).

The Top: Charred Bliss

The caramelised top adds a smoky, slightly bitter note, perfectly balancing the richness. It’s like the tart is whispering, “I’m complex, darling, just like you.”

Service and Value: Five-Star Charm, Wallet-Friendly Price

At MOP13 a tart, these are easily the most luxurious bites you can have without breaking the bank. Pair that with the friendly and welcoming service, and you’ve got yourself an experience that feels like a hug from your favourite aunt who always bakes.

Verdict: A Must-Eat in Macau

Whether you’re a die-hard foodie or just someone who appreciates the finer things in life (like dessert for breakfast), Lord Stow’s Bakery at the Londoner Macau is a non-negotiable stop. These egg tarts aren’t just a snack; they’re a love letter to your taste buds.

Xiang Di Mi Fen Pasir Panjang Food Centre – Fatty Ipoh Noodles Review

  When you think of crispy noodle dishes, most of us immediately picture the classic deep-fried yee mee swimming in luscious egg sauce gravy. But over at  Fatty Ipoh Noodles (肥仔怡保炒粉)  in  Pasir Panjang Food Centre , there’s something different sizzling away on the wok. Enter the  Xiang Di Mi Fen (香底米粉)  – a rare twist that swaps out yee mee for bee hoon, and the results are worth every crunchy bite. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What makes Xiang Di Mi Fen special? Here’s the magic: instead of sturdy yee mee, the hawker goes with delicate bee hoon. Deep-frying bee hoon isn’t as straightforward – it’s finer, more brittle, and breaks more easily, which means it takes extra skill to get it golden, crispy, and ready to hold up under a blanket of silky gravy. That’s already a show of craft. The glorious egg sauce gravy Once the fried bee hoon hits the plate, it’s doused with a  luxurious egg sauce gravy  that cl...

Hunan Pork Belly at Xiang Xiang Hunan: Crunchy, Spicy, and Lip-Smacking Good

  You know a dish is that good when you keep coming back for it. And that’s exactly what happened on our third visit to Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine 湘香湖南菜 —this time at AMK Hub. We already had high expectations from our past experiences, but once again, their Hunan pork belly blew us away. View this post on Instagram A post shared by YumzYumz.com (@yumzyumzsg) What Makes This Hunan Pork Belly Stand Out? First off, let’s talk about the star of the show: their Hunan stir fry pork , made with a heavenly combo of Iberico pork belly and lean pork. It’s a dish that really brings out the spirit of Hunan cooking—bold, fragrant, slightly spicy, and loaded with green pepper aromatics. The pork belly is wonderfully fatty and tender, with that unmistakable richness that Iberico pork is known for. The lean pork adds a nice balance so it doesn’t get overly unctuous. And then there's the rabbit ear fungus. Yes, rabbit ear fungus—also known as Mu Er or Yunnan black fungus . It...
