PORTOS FRUIT TART HOW TO
These guys really know how to do a fruit tart. The custard is light and, well, custard-y, and the cinnamon goes perfectly with the whole thing. Sponge cake soaked in rum, topped with custard and cinnamon. I'm not a huge mango fan either, but this was delicious! Kind of looks like a boob from the outside since it's a little dome shaped guy with a little raspberry "nipple" on top. This was my first time trying this one and it was really good! A layer of yellow sponge cake is surrounded by a dome of light and creamy mango mousse. It's topped off with a layer of cream and glaze that also dons a cool looking grid design. You've got thin layers of espresso-soaked sponge cake with marscapone mousse in between. One of the reasons I like Portos so much is that their deserts aren't overly sweet. There's a good balance of flaky pastry and filling in this one. It also balances nicely with the cream cheese filling. I'm not a big guava fan, but you don't get too much "tropical fruit" taste in this pastry. 1 Guava & Cheese Streudel aka Refugiado. I don't like these as much as the potato balls but they're still pretty damn good. Same ground beef as the potato balls but instead it's surrounded by a flaky pastry shell. No party is complete with out these yummy lumps of seasoned ground beef surrounded by fried mashed potatoes. These are simply amazing, even heated back up in the oven. Now you tell me, would any parents be OK hearing that you ate that for dinner? I don't even know if I'm OK with it myself, but hey, I'm an adult and I can do what I want right? I might regret it one day, but.Īnyways, my 7-course meal tonight consisted of: I decided that tonight, I was going to eat the rest of the Porto's food that I brought home yesterday-the Potato Balls and Meat Pies that I was too full to eat, and bites of all the little deserts from their bakery. So what, pray tell, did I have for dinner? All lies I tell you! Because #1, I hadn't eaten yet, #2, I wasn't going to eat rice, and #3, I wasn't going to eat chicken. They asked "Rice and what?" I said chicken. In typical Asian parent style, they asked me if I had eaten dinner already. I called my parents today when I got home from work.
