In this unassuming building is a fabulous bakery and coffee shop. I went there to get their Pasteis de Nata (Portuguese custard tarts), which they bake daily. Unfortunately for me, they were sold out. I settled instead for a cheese danish and a ham and cheese croissant - both amazing. Of course, I had to return another day - this time two hours earlier to ensure I could get the pasteis de nata. It was a success! They looked slightly different than the ones I tried in Portugal earlier this summer. And I mean very slightly. But in terms of taste?? They were up there. If I had been in Lisbon and they were brought out to me with some coffee, I would be very satisfied.
The cheese was baked into the croissant. Inside, was delicious ham.
These are some murals around back and in the neighborhood.
On my return, I parked on Haywood Road, just a bit down from Owl Bakery. Across the street was the Asian lady mural that caught my eye in the past.
