    Maybe I should talk about the Portuguese Egg Tarts .The simple recipe has had various alterations in the Portuguese pastelarias and padarias One of these methods includes making the custard in a bain-marie rather than combining all the ingredients at once in a saucepan.

  2. Pastel de nata is a name of Portugal about Portuguese Tarts. In Guangdong, it calls Portuguese Tarts .Portuguese Tarts were created by a Portuguese nun in 18th century. In 1989, Andrew Stow who is a British brought to Macau and added some mend. It became today Portuguese Tarts

    We always go to Ruins of St. Paul's & Monte Fort.but we never know something about that. In fact ,The Ruins of St. Paul's also known as Sam Ba Sing Tzik, stands adjacent to the famous Mount Fortress and Macau Museum. The front façade and the grand stone stairs are the only remains of the greatest church in Macau.

    I love Ruins of St. Paul's so much. Today, the ruins are one of Macau's most famous landmarks. It is the most popular buildings in Macau. If you come to Macau, you will go Ruins of St. Paul's. There is not big enough but there is quite special church.

    The Macao Tower is my most favourite building in Macao. It is height of 338 meters , and I think it is very special because there have a 360 degree revolving restaurant and a 180 degree air bar . Second , there have many exciting activities that you can take part in.

    I think the Ruins of St. Paul's is one of the special features in Macao. The Ruins of St. Paul's was a Church in many years ago. But the St. Paul's Church had fire for three times. So, the Church remained the ruins. As a reason, we call it Ruins of St. Paul's.
