You can smell it before you see it.The sweet smell of sugar,eggs and cream fills the air.

Once it is made to perfection,the inside is soft and the outside is crispy.A shiny and golden surface catches the eye.

This,as you may have guessed,is the delicious egg tart .It's the famous dessert of Wong's cafe,one of the most popular places to eat in Macao.The sweet dessert is made fresh every day by the cafe's owner Margaret Wong.

Few people know egg tarts better than Wong.After all,she created this dessert together with her husband Stow.Some people say Margaret's egg tarts are special,because they taste neither Western nor Chinese.According to Wong,that is exactly the point.

It all started when Wong and Stow opened their first cake house.Someone asked Stow to make some cream cakes.The first plate of cakes came out burnt and wrong,and Stow wanted to throw them away.But Wong said,"Hold on a minute.They can still be eaten.Don't waste food.”The couple let people try them for free.Unexpectedly,the customers loved them.They have ordered more and more egg tarts from then on.More than thirty years flies.The method of making Margaret's egg tarts remains the same.

Whenever people talk about Macao,they mention egg tarts.Every day,hundreds of tourists and locals line up at Wong's cafe.“Sometimes people walk in and say 'Can I just have one egg tart?'And I have to tell them,'Not even a small piece is left!'”Wong says with a smile.
