Portugese tarts from Portugal

This just came in from my brother who is in Lisbon right now....looks nice! I did a bit of research (all of five minutes) and fount this Wikipedia entry - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastel_de_nata. It's called "Pastel de Nata" over there.

David mms-ed a pic to me, said eating a real Portugese Egg Tart in Portugal was the best ones he had ever eaten! Crispy all round and not oily at all!
P.S. Found out from Datin Lim that Portugese Egg Tarts have those burnt bits on top because they have cheese on the tops. Now thats education for me.
