Lisbon: Pastéis de Belém

After a visit to Belém Tower remember to take a rest at Pastéis de Belém where you can taste the homonymous cake invented in 1837. Served warm you have to add sugar and cinnamon and you'll try one of the greatest culinary experiences of your life. You can eat the cake at the front bar rather than sitting in the back rooms. Do not be frightened, the place is so huge that you'll find place even in crowded days.

You can find fake cakes everywhere in Lisbon but if you try the original one you will understand they cannot compete.
