"Ovos moles." One of those Portuguese delicacies that are impossible to really describe. Basically it's egg yolks. Lots of egg yolks. And sugar. You can eat them by the spoonful or in these delicate wafer confections. These are shaped like boats, or kegs, or shells. They are a speciality of Aveiro in central Portugal.
We stopped for a quick snack and to buy the famous ovos moles in a keg. You choose the keg size and they fill it up for you. Delicious. Make sure you refrigerate them if you're not going to eat them right away. We had cokes and a pão de ló (think angel food cake). Great stop.
If you're in Aveiro go there. And indulge. read more
