What a lot of opinionated tart-voters may not know is that the family behind Tuga Pastries has a significant Sydney history of its own. Owner, head baker and tart-maker Diogo is the son of Agostinho and Lucia Ferreira, some of the first people to bring Portuguese tarts to Australia. The Ferreiras moved to Australia from Lisbon Agostinho also spent some time in Angola and first sold the tarts at Honeymoon bakery in Petersham in The tarts are commonly believed to have originated in the 18th century, when monks at the Santa Maria monastery needed to make use of excess egg yolks leftover from the egg whites they were using to starch clothes. Agostinho died in He spent two years testing, reading blogs and old recipes, and trying to find out what he could from relatives. Diogo has been making tarts for four years now, first for his Clovelly cafe Village on Cloey — since revamped as Tuga Village — and now out of Tuga, a tiny, counter-only bakery down the road. The egg-custard inside is the texture of just-molten chocolate and tastes like caramelised custard and Christmas. Like his dad before him, Diogo is the only one who knows how to make it.

Situated along a line of retail stores on McEvoy Street, the new bakery has an expansive shop front compared to its eastern sibling, with paving and a grassy lawn out the front planned for al fresco dine-in, and production space out the back. Of course, choosing the exceptional cinnamon-dusted pasteis de nata is a no-brainer. Beyond croissants and savoury breakfast options, Tuga sells three or four pastry specials per week. To this day Diogo and Lucia Ferreira are the sole custodians of the clandestine egg-custard filling, of which they make about 50 litres per day. The pastries are presented piled in large cork bowls, boards and platforms — a nod to the Portuguese cork industry.
