I love the casual "David Beckham introduced them to me"
Josh is truly a man of the world 😂
I genuinely thought that was a joke until the footage :)
@@jaimemurphy2208 I had to rewind the clip
As a longtime Jolly fan, this whole video was worth it just to see Ollie win rock, paper, scissors.
I think though Ollie’s won one or two times before, but I can’t remember when 😅
Don’t they call it scissors , paper , rock in some countries?
I thought he was gonna say it in Korean for some reason 😅
Batu gunting kertas
@PsychoBeast017 it's rock paper scissors
I was born in macau and lived there my entire childhood, i dont know how many hours Ive spent on the exact bench you guys sat on outside lord Stow’s. Me and my brother would walk there afterschool and demolish a dozen egg tarts before getting yelled at by my mom for being too full for dinner. Thank you for showing the incredible diverse culture of my hometown!
what a great childhood memory :)
Ollie is definitely not the first English guy to shout ‘it’s tea, it’s tea’ in Asia
😂😂😂
lmao great comment
hahaha
well they did have a history there... not Macau but you know...
@@PrograError brub its a 55 min boat ride across who cares
You know it's good when Josh starts to laugh like a sealion.
OMG those look so good I'm so jealous 🥺🤤
rip.
Gabie! Hope you had lots of fun of your own while Josh, and Ollie were away.
Finally Olly won his 1st international Rock Paper scissor match 👏 🙌 👌 CONGRATULATIONS 🎊
Barney!!!! There is hope for your Rock Paper Sissors game yet!
I am portuguese and my full time job is teaching people (mostly tourists) about the history of Pastel de Nata and how to make it. I love JOLLY and I wish you guys could come to Portugal and try our sweets, would absolutely love to see a video on that. Come to lisbon and try Pasteis de Belém, Manteigaria, Fábrica da Nata... etc ❤ 🇵🇹 I also want to say that this video made me really want to go to Macau and try all of those to really know if they are better than the original portuguese version I am used to 😂
There are 10 times if not 100 times better!
I want to know how you can improve on perfection? I wonder how the recipe is different, maybe it's the pastry dough? It appears puffier more than flaky.
I couldn’t watch this till the end I could hear my ancestors screaming from their graves
Belem is one of my favourite places to go to eat these
I spent a month in Porto this year and the thing I miss most are the Natas. I'd relocate there just to have them nearby :P
As Macau is the hometown of my Mom, it is so heartwarming seeing you guys review the delicacies there. I go back there to visit my relatives every year without fail (except for during lockdown).
Have you bought your mom the top two tarts?🥰
YOO IM FROM MACAU
YOOO IM ALSO FROM MACAOOOO😂
Josh and Ollie are actually quite right about the final two being distinct from each other!
Locals usually refer pastel de nata styled egg tarts as "Portuguese tart 葡撻" (pronounced as po-tat) and the flaky egg tart as "egg tart 蛋撻" (pronounced as daan-tat).
Being an asian whom is so familiar and in love with my Yuen-Yong (milk tea coffee), it's my first time ever hearing someone comment on its name being 3 different drinks 😂Also Ollie's expression after the first sip is so remarkable 🤣
Lol "chai tea latte" is another one...or three 😂😂😂
@@A.Servidortechnically two because chai just means tea BAHHEHSHS
Egg Tarts in Macau and Hong Kong are just everything.
My mother is in Hong Kong on holiday right now. All I asked her to bring back is some egg tarts.
There’s huge difference between Macao egg tarts and HK styles egg tarts, Macao egg tarts are pastry and HK styles are biscuits
@@babayo3115That is simply not true. Daan taht ~ Hong Kong egg tarts are a staple, hot from a bakery or at yum cha/ dim sum
@@babayo3115we have pastry egg tarts in Hong Kong too, and we love both the pastry ones and cookie ones! Generally when we eat or talk about egg tarts, the immediate question we ask will be “pastry or cookie, which do you prefer?”😂
Milk Tea Coffee!!
Ollie: “what? Those are 3 different drinks” 😂😂😂😂
As a resident and citizen of Macau, thank you Jolly’s team for coming and showing the world what our special culture is! Hit me up next time and I will show you more about the local cuisines and culture! Keep up the good work!
Can you tell me the name of the 243 layers egg tarts? Much appreciated!
@@phunghandi2769it's cafe chion chau
as a brazilian, it's very satisfying to hear josh and ollie say "pastel de nata" 😅❤
it's pasteis though (portugal)
Yeah in England we use "pastel" despite being closer to Portugal! Must be the influence of all the Brazilians here 😂
@@bladepanthera No we don't! I'm in England. The Portuguese community will say 'pasteis'. My mum is Portuguese, I'm from London.
@@bluebellbeatnik4945 They are known as pastel de nata. British people cant even say 'pasteis'!!
pasteis is just the plural for pastel my guy 😅😅@@bluebellbeatnik4945
Laughed my head off watching Ollie’s face drinking the milk tea coffee drink 😂😂😂
I LOVE LOVE LOVE how Ollie lift his head and his eyes are looking for the flavor in the sky, I just love watching his eyes 👀 and when he pulls his face in absolute disgust is when I laugh the loudest. My favourite team, they always make my heart JOLLY
Me, too!
And me!
As a 70 yo lady from eastern Oklahoma I have no idea what a egg tart is or what it should taste like. I love your channels and enjoy seeing all your adventures!! ♥️
If you’ve had like an egg custard, I’d say that’s the closest thing to an egg tart. Just think of egg custard on a flaky pastry. We have loads of it in Malaysia as well. It. Is. Good. Probably really unhealthy HAHA
The one they said tasted like tea looked a lot like pumpkin pie. I suspect pumpkin pie is a variation of an egg tart - just with pumpkin and spice added in lieu of additional egg. They said the tarts were sweet, so I’m guessing eggs, cream, sugar, maybe brown sugar, and maybe vanilla baked into the pastry. This is just a guess, but years of baking leads me to think it’s something very close to that.
The pastry looks like puff pastry or croissant pastry - very thin, rolled out with butter between the layers.
67 yr old from the South, and SAME😂
@@sharonpaige1322 I looked up the recipe. Egg yolks, milk / cream, sugar, small amount of flour, vanilla (in some recipes), and cinnamon. I did see one highly rated recipe that didn’t call for sugar in the custard, that seemed to be an outlier as did one which called for a dash of lemon juice.
The consistency looks similar to pecan pie filling though obviously it isn’t as good (I know that for a fact and I too have never had an egg tart. Pecan pie filling has more sugar, doesn’t use milk or flour, and uses the whole egg, but the liquid is basically the same. Meaning the consistency is the same minus the nuts obviously.) I’m thinking the tarts would be very mild in flavor, perhaps like tapioca pudding with some cinnamon?
@greywater3186 it's egg custard. Mild in flavour but also rich when done well
Jolly should travel all over the world because even though it’s only about food, it’s still making me want to vacation there.
I REALLY want them to go to Singapore, but not the Michelin star places, the really local ones with hawker stalls and grumpy locals 😭
European Portuguese food is majorly slept on. Portugal really is Europe's hidden gem and I wish more people knew about the amazing food, nature and people there. Jolly, please consider a trip to Portugal!
I think they have been to Portugal and tried the pasteis de Belem as Ollie mentioned at 2:02 that “it is eggier than the pastel de Nata.”
@@Vibernation I would hope so! The more people know about these tarts, the better 😂
@@_GhostTea I just read a few comments from some Portuguese being triggered and commenting how these are not the og or cannot be the best. I don't understand why the hate. There are lots of different versions of egg tarts/ pastries in the World. To each their own.🤷♀
@@Vibernation I can only speak for myself, but I think it may have something to do with the fact that Portugal is not very well known on the world stage and we have so very much to offer. We're very proud of our culture (as anyone would be) and the pastel de nata is extremely popular in Portugal and one of our most traditional and famous desserts. It's a source of pride, culture and history. I don't see any sense in being triggered by it, Portuguese cuisine can be found world wide given our history of exploration and trade. But I know I certainly would love if there was more of a spotlight on Portugal (including our food) and it wasn't so obscure when it comes to travel vlogs.
@@_GhostTea I know. I’m part Portuguese Macanese and have been to Portugal when I was young. The way I see this is you can promote your own country and be proud, however, being so salty about an ex colony trying to create their own version of your food is unnecessary. It is a kind of appreciation. So, just calm down. P.S. I’d love to visit Portugal again one day.❤️
in some region in Asia, KFC do sell egg tart. and their recipe is originally from lord stow's wife, Margaret.
which is another famous eggtart brand in Macau. (some says it is more silky and milky, but I don't taste the different personally.)
the KFC option is a pretty quick fix for the craving lol.
TIL Asian KFC egg tarts are basically a Lord Stow's derivative
I'm from Hong Kong and the KFC ones are my staple. I would say the KFC one is sweeter. But they used to be a lot more greasy but they seemed to have changed it up. They also do interesting seasonal flavors which are quite nice (most of the time). Also its a lot more accessible and they're always warm when you get them. So my parents say its better because by the time I got the lord stow ones back home for them to try, they were cold and sad :(
Egg tart is in every dimsum. I grew up eating it. One of the best. I love the traditional chinese version, super flakey and the filling is super simple and not burnt.
Yes sorry to the French but the best bakery sweets I've ever had are always traditional Chinese bakeries.
I am so proud to be a Macaunese right now. So glad Ollie and Josh enjoyed their trip❤
Ollie reminds me so much of my late brother. He was a goofball too 😊 always makes me happy to watch you guys
My condolences. May your brother rest in peace.
I'm sorry to hear about his passing
What on earth is Ollie seeing when he drinks the milk tea coffee?? 😂😂 it's like he's seeing new colours
Hands down this has become my favorite channel. I know how you've come up with the name Jolly but it really is such a joyful part of my day. Lovely content!
Josh + Ollie = Jolly 😀
Jolly good!
Im amazed how well Josh & Ollie can vibe with people they meet, their charisma is on point
Josh and Ollie never disappoint with their amazing food choices
Happy to see Josh and Ollie enjoying themselves in my hometown Macau🇲🇴. P.S. I think they have been to Portugal and tried the Pasteis de Belem as Ollie mentioned at 2:02 that “it is eggier than the Pastel de Nata.” Proud of 🇲🇴🇲🇴🇲🇴 ❤From Australia.
I have heard so much about Lord Stow's variant of Pastel de Nata when I was in Macau several years ago. Since my cousins and aunts also live in that area of the world, it's been the talk of the town since forever now. Mind you, I live in an area that can make actual Pastel de Nata (A Portuguese bakery that is affiliated with a Michelin Star restaurant is in my area), but the ones in Macau are goated.
as a Portuguese, loved watching this! you should film a video in Portugal someday, trying all of our pastries and baked goods such as Pão de Ló, Bolo de Arroz, Bolas de Berlim, Aletria, Bolo de Bolacha, and of course the authentic Pastel de Nata :)
Pastel de Cerveja, Pastel de Feijão, Pastel de Tentugal, Pastel de Azeitão...
What about tempura? Isn’t that a Portuguese thing?
@@hugosequeira2997 sim claro, estava apenas a listar os doces mais populares entre os estrangeiros 😁
@@greywater3186 yes, it was brought to Japan by 16th-Century Portuguese sailors. They’re Peixinhos da horta
@@xosararodrigues peixinhos da horta- I bet there are lovely places all over the country where this is cooked according to what is on hand. I bet it is all absolutely amazing.
Olly having a mild stroke every time he's confused about something he's eating is one of the best facial expressions you'll see anywhere on the internet 😂😂
As someone who lives in Texas, it gets me every time when Ollie busts out another piece of Buc-ees merch. 🤣🤣🤣
Was that his shirt? I was wondering what the reference was
Long-time fan from Macau here. Lord Stow’s is the only one that locals would be willing to drive to Coloane, line up with tourists, and come back for more! Our town is tiny, but it has a lot to offer. Please come back for the pork bun next time 😋
“Safe trip to wherever” is such a cool way to say goodbye! 1:39
love the southern chinese tarts,so flaky with less sugar to make them a bit more moreish than the other contenders😋
As a local from Macau, I also prefer the southern Chinese style egg tart and the lord stow ones. 😋 I would usually have the Chinese one when having dim sum and the lord stow one from time to time 😋
Haven’t really had the boba one, but I’m gonna buy one and try it after watching this video 😋
You know you have made it when you can just casually mention what David Beckham recommended to you personally.
As someone who recently went to Macau and tried the Lord Stow’s egg tart, they are by far the best egg tarts I’ve had, I’m still dreaming about them 😭❤️
Now I want those Eggtarts ☺️
This has become one or my favorite channels. Jim carey and michael cera are the combo i never knew i needed. Bravo gentlemen.
anyone else founds josh laugh extremely contagious?
Being born and raised in Macau and now studying abroad far from home, this video just touched the softest part of my heart. This is my first time commenting on a jolly's video even tho I've been a subscriber for ages but i have to say it's so sweet seeing both Josh, Ollie and the team having fun in my hometown and trying out the food and culture. Thank you for visiting Macau and sending lots of love and support !
I'm am so jealous...I grew up eating egg custard tarts at dim sum houses all my life, but the first time I tried one of these Portuguese egg tarts was heaven on earth. I've love to have these locally in Macau, and have the original version in Portugal, but, alas, traveling is out of my range of things we can do. Thankfully, we live in an area where we can get these.
Lord Stow's got a branch in Philippines at Chinatown 😁 I've been to Macau twice but I haven't tried their egg tarts. Seems like this is a sign to go back. I want to try that milk tea coffee.
If you want to try the original and the best egg tarts come to Lisbon in Portugal. Mainly Belem, we have a pastry shop called Pastéis De Belém is where they have the best egg tarts or Pastéis De Nata as we call here in Portugal. These are like our tradicional dessert.
Yes I'm Angolan and I do have to agree with it (since we were colonized by them), but I genuinely agree! Go to Portugal for it
I aprove. Those may be the best "Pastéis de nata" in Portigal (egg tart for the illeterate ;) :D ).
As someone that bought a box of 6 from Lord Stow's and threw 5 away I approve this message. It is not bad, but far from good and joins the whole bunch of other asian egg tarts. As this was often being called an Authentic Portuguese Egg Tart, I went in expecting something that could resemble a Pastel de Nata, but, oh boy, I was wrong. They look great, but any sort of Portuguese resemblemnce is fading away with the rest of Macao.
I came here to say this. The best and the original is in Lisbon.
I prefer the macanese/hong kong style egg tard over the portuguese one personally.
These look amazing! I love how Ollie rocks his Buck-ees hat. Josh casually dropping David Beckham’s name like he’s his bestie! I’m jelly!!! David Beckham is 🔥 👀
My parents and family are from Portugal and we used to gather to eat these as a family when me and my family (who live in the UK) would visit almost every year. So glad you can find these in the UK now. My favourite ever dessert
Am I the only one who literally laughs out loud when Josh takes food from Ollie's hands while he's still initially reacting? 🤣 These guys crack me up!
You know what's a better combination than tea and biscuits ? Tea and a new Jolly episode !
Tee Hee 😁
I hope Macau recognises the service to its tourism provided here - they do (almost all) look spectacular as examples of egg tarts.
I miss the time when we had projects with clients in Macau, they always send us back with the tarts from Lord Stow’s. SO GOOD!
As a Portuguese living in london I'd say out of the Portuguese shops, Tesco is the place where you can find the closest to the original "pastel de nata" , they're fairly good.
Interesting. I do like theirs. They aren’t always cooked consistently though and you have to be careful not to buy day old ones!
@@nicolad8822air fry them for a quick minute and add cinnamon! You are welcome! 😘
I felt so happy when Ollie won the rock paper scissors duel there, idk why but it feels like it was fated lmao
This was the episode for me. Egg tart is one of the best food creation in history. It will def be on my last meal. I'm dying for all of them, especially the giant croissant one.
I can vouch for and verify that Lord Stow’s Egg Tarts are sooooo good! I got mine from the Venetian Casino in Macao, because the bakery y’all went to was closed the morning I went there . We need a Lord Stow Bakery in the US
Portuguese South African and am beeming at seeing you eat my favourite egg custard tart - pastel/pasteis de nata 🇵🇹❤️💛💚 Originally they came about to deal with egg surpluses.
I grew up having these as a special treat when I was a kid. Love watching y’all taste test them! I’ll need to get some soon - I miss them
Fun fact : the kfc in hk and macau sell Portuguese egg tarts made with the recipe from one of the famous egg tart places in macau. Literally the best thing on the menu.
6:23 I can't stop replaying this part, why does he sound so much like that old guy with his nyonyonyonyo laugh? 😂😂
Lost it at “nose feel”. Never change Ollie. Never change! ❤
😂
as a hongkonger seeing you guys try milk tea- coffee (yuenyeung) was so amazing to me LMFAO
“鴛鴦 - Yuenyeung”which is known as Coffee & Tea was originated from Hong Kong Traditional style “大排檔 - Dai Pai Dong” open air Food Stalls. It isn't from Macau, but because many people from Hong Kong also live and have relatives in Macau, so we have similar styles of Food mixed in the local culture.
Same with the Egg Tarts, there is Hong Kong style Egg Tarts and there is Portuguese style Egg Tarts. Both are Famous as the Best Egg Tarts in the World. Hong Kong style is a mix of multilayers of Pastry and the Biscuits like Crust on the Egg Tarts. Josh and Ollie also needs to try the Hong Kong version as well.
The is one of my favourite food in the entire world. I get so many when I travel back to Asia. So happy to see you try it
In Malaysia, the milk tea coffee you had is called cham beng (direct translates to ‘mixed ice’ drink), you can basically find it in any restaurants 😂 it’s good because u get the best of two worlds 😍
I still dream of a dodgy ancient looking Chinese bakery in KL chinatown.... these custard and durian puff things ..... aww jesus christ
I love Luke food description, so delicate and comprehensive at the same time.
I just love you two, and you so perfectly play off of each other, it is so enjoyable to watch, thank you
I just love watching you, Josh & Ollie. You both make me laugh until I cry. I can't get enough of your videos. Much love from Colorado!
I loved watching this video! I was not aware there was more than 1 egg tart! This inspires me to drive to one of our many Chinese or Vietnamese bakeries and buy me some egg tarts! I'm going to share this video! I enjoyed this video guys! ☮️💕
It is good that Lord Stows is available in the ph. Hopefully Jolly goes here to make viral vids. I'm definitely sure the Jollybeans in the ph would be happy and ecstatic to meet you guys in the flesh.
Other than egg tarts, Macao is also famous for Macanese food, which is a combination of Portuguese n Chinese dishes! Love from Macao🫶🏻🇲🇴
This is my one favourite treat! I’m soooo jealous, The satisfaction of biting into the warm - not too sweet custard through all the flaky layers…bliss
I love it Josh and Ollie! Great video, and you guys are also awesome brining people experiences with food! You guys are so charismatic and so funny
Never a dull moment on a Jolly Friday! 🥳 Love egg tarts and they all looked and sounded ahmazing! 🤤🤤
A delightful episode and I can't help but be entertained (that's the point...right) when Josh is laughing so hard at something Ollie's said, that he snorts. That is seriously such a funny laugh cuz you know the person is cracking-up. Great that these two can still bring it. Thank you.
I just love you guys and your episodes! ❤
you should come to portugal, and taste the portuguese tarts in belém, it's a secret recipe from 1800s
I think they have been to Portugal and tried the pasteis de Belem as Ollie mentioned at 2:02 that “it is eggier than the pastel de Nata.”
@@Vibernation might not be pasteis de belém, there are a lot of places here that sell pasteis de nata, but nothing compares with that, in my opinion
As a macanese, it feels great seeing you guys review some local delicacies from Macau.❤
I live in Texas, US and watching Ollie hat brings a smile to my face. I love Buc ees!!!!
I love Jolly…Josh and Ollie are awesome and always love their outlook on things. I would love to try an egg tart and these look delicious 🤗🤗
A good egg tart is worth traveling across an ocean for! I have a predilection for the classic Chinese ones as they are mind blowing good, straight class
It’s funny how their stomach still have a room for the final eggtart champion 😂🏆
3:45 Ollie’s ‘ what’ was so genuine it reminds me of that kilogram of steel and kilogram of feathers guy😂😂
As a new egg tart conisuire myself, I found (of all places) KFC in Thailand, as having the best egg tart of the limited selection in this country. A quick Google search reaffirmed my taste buds were in check. Now to hunt them down in America upon my return.
Great video and channel, your humor is my kind of crazy.
Ollie’s the goat of humbleness
I warched the David Beckham pork bbq vid just today morning, and the tarts at the end were lord stow's, and now it's evening and you're filming there again, coincidences. But also very excited to see this!
The Texan pride that wells up in me when I see Ollie sporting a Buc-cee's hat and Terry's BBQ shirt all the way in Macao.
Love the fact that Ollie is wearing the Buc-ee's hat - love from Texas!!!
Now i'm drooling some portuguese egg tart in the middle of the night and my stomach growled. Thanks guys 🥲👍
In Australia these are known as Portuguese tarts. I find the eggy taste overwhelming, which is funny, as I absolutely love custard. I think the ones that were a bit sweet and less eggy would be my favourite. I need to plan a trip to Macau to find out 😅
That name of "Portuguese Tart" literally is translated from Cantonese to English.
You two complement each other, so funny. I love you guys, so funny.
I missed having Margaret's Portuguese egg tart down the alley in Macau! It's one of the best egg tart I've ever had.
The egg tarts from Portugal are the best.
That classic Ollie look when he's trying something for the first time 😂 He always looks like he's smelling something or having difficulty reading off the menu 🥤🍔🍟
I LOVE THIS FORMAT !!!
Wow so exciting to see Macau here! Truly best egg tarts 😭
Come to Malaysia and you will experience a whole new world (insert a whole new world song) of foods and tastes
This is the first time I’ve ever heard of egg tarts . They look like something I’d try if I had the chance. Shout out to my fellow Jellybeans from Nevada, USA ! 😁
Ollie’s jokes get me everytime!!! Does he come up with these all on the spot?? So freaking funny!!! 🤣
Omg ! Egg tarts are my fave , and these look delicious yum
