Hello it's the Fried Chicken Queen herself. This is another one of my attempts to get KFC to sponsor me. I'm just kidding but I do love, love them!
KFCs everywhere have different menu items and the flavors are adjusted according to the local's preferences. In some KFCs in Asia - there are PORTUGUESE EGG TARTS! YES, eat creamy custard filled pastries with your fried chicken.
In this video we dive into the history of how these egg tarts got on KFC's menu! Did you know the recipe actually comes from the famous egg tart bakeries - Lord Stow's and Magaret Cafe e Nata in Macau?
If you're still reading this I'll give you more fun facts! You deserve it. Technically "Asian egg tarts" appeared in Hong Kong around the 1950s in cafes. Hong Kong was under British rule from 1950s to 1997 that's why those Asian egg tarts stem influence from British custard tarts.
Macau was a Portuguese island for over 400 years and that's why Portuguese egg tarts spread from there into Asia.
Of course, historians have different stories and can (probably have) argued over egg tarts origins. But I think we can all agree on this: egg tarts are darn delicious.

If you are ever in Lisbon, Portugal, you can get the original egg tarts from the 1800s, they are called "Pasteis de Belem". Eat them hot, fresh out of the oven and with a dusting of cinnamon, it's heaven on earth!

@stevec8522 6 лет назад

I prefer the Portugese style vs the Canto Dan Tat. You can get the Portugese ones at any legit Portugese bakeries in Greater Toronto. Always have to get some whenever I am in TO.

This is like the best KFC review I’ve ever watched. You go girl!

@MaskedRiderChris 5 лет назад

The Portuguese egg tarts look tastier, I think. I loved the bit at the end with the different egg tart songs, and you singing in Taiwanese (?) was so adorable!

@kidwebber 3 года назад

I have been to Taiwan a couple of times and was always hitting the street food. The next time I'll be there, I will definitely try to eat at KFC for the egg tart. This was a very enlightening video.

@davidlewis7490 6 лет назад

@spongebobby188 3 года назад

You should come to the UK. The English egg tarts are different and just as nice. The Chinese egg tarts here are also like a hybrid of the two types you covered...flaky pastry but not as flaky as Portuguese egg tarts. 🥚

@fifilix 6 лет назад

I Like Pastéis de nata, we eat Portuguese egg's tarts a lot in France for breackfast & lunch ! They were the ones they imported when Leah French Revolution History under Napoleon Bonaparte. The French-Portuguese community was part of one of the most important!

@themusicisreversable9040 6 лет назад

You got me when I saw egg tart! Yum! Thanks for the "history" lesson going "way back" to the 1980's. Yeah, I feel old now :) I just subscribed to you, and looking forward to seeing what else you can find to eat!

@diggity2966 6 лет назад

If you ever make it to Northern California let me know. Would love to show you our amazing food and wine scene here...

@leisuresuit10 6 лет назад

I also like the crust of HK egg tarts; the flakiness is somewhere in-between the Taiwanese and the Portuguese.

@diggity2966 6 лет назад

TJ, your videos are fun, you're super cute, and really funny! Keep on keepin on! 😉

@annemariarendi6402 6 лет назад

EARLY BIRD GETS ALL THE EGG TARTS

@MrCaptainSisko 6 лет назад

Though I try to avoid KFC and Mc Donalds in other countries if i can and only eat the local delicacies instead but KFC in Taiwan is something special egg tart and rice on the side. I remember trying KFC in Kaohsiung while i was in Taiwan for almost a month in 2017. When I got back to New Zealand a few weeks after and had KFC here i was hoping for an egg tart or a cup of rice but I realized i'm in New Zealand now. Disappointed. Love and miss Taiwan!

@marcc5768 3 года назад

I like both :) but lean towards to the Portuguese egg tart. Not as easy to find currently during lockdown where I am.

@nukem384 6 лет назад

Great history lesson! The different genre egg tart songs at the end was so funny! And dude, you know you're in Taiwan, land of boba, when your soda cup is impulse sealed! How does that even work? Paper doesn't melt like plastic does? I'm curious on that if you could explain.

@DessertFirstJenny 6 лет назад
