Egg Custard Tarts
Pastry girl gives a good post on the experience of growing up and shopping around (San Francisco’s) Chinatown.
Fresh Egg Custard Tarts or Dan Tats, are one of my favourite Chinese bakery items and feature in her post. There are links to recipes where you can try baking your own, or if you don’t do so, just drop into your nearest Chinatown, where there’s likely to be a bakery that sells these. Mmmm!

Great article. Thought: how is London connected to San Francisco by custard?! As you can buy egg custard tarts in my local portuguese cafe in london. the portuguese took their original idea when they settled in both china (shanghai) and london. i deeply suspect this because the portuguese version is much more common than the chinese one. then the chinese took the idea to san francisco.
it’s a big giant custard tart of a world! ;-)
