MEITAWANG® Egg Tart Seongsu

Cafes & bakeries · Seongsu

Flaky pastry surrounds a dense, creamy custard centre in MEITAWANG's large salted egg tart. The salty edge against the sweet filling is the reason to stop; sharing one makes a useful Seongsu tasting break if you prefer a few rich bites to a whole dessert.

Why visit

  • MEITAWANG’s Seongsu shop makes sense as a quick stop for a large salted egg tart: crisp pastry around a dense custard centre, with a salty edge to the sweetness. Come for the tart itself and take it away; this is not a place to sit over dessert.DiningCode

One tart or a box?

  • The signature is the Salt Egg Tart, or sogeum egg tart. Diningcode’s menu lists one at ₩5,800 and a three-piece set at ₩17,400, including a gift box and shopping bag. Start with one if you are sampling several Seongsu snacks. The box is the more practical choice for carrying three pastries back to your accommodation, although it is not a discount at those listed prices.DiningCode

Who will like the flavour?

  • In a January 21, 2026 account, chocomintchou liked the flaky pastry rather than a firm tart shell, describing salt on the outside and sweet filling packed into the centre. Their three-tart purchase felt heavy enough that they were glad to have a box. This is a substantial custard dessert, so it suits a craving for buttery layers and a rich middle more than a light bite.Tistory
  • Regine shared one with her parents and wrote on June 7, 2025 that the filling was not too sweet; she enjoyed the salty creaminess but would return only when specifically craving it. Diningcode reviewer 진차, in an October 12, 2026 review, liked the first bites but found the large tart cloying as they continued. Sharing one is a sensible way to try the contrast without committing to a whole box.starsofheavens+1

A short stop on your walk

  • The March 15, 2025 account by 먹보06_28 described a busy shop without seating, and 진차’s October 2026 review still identified it as takeaway-only. Plan a separate seated break if that is what you need. For a multi-tart purchase, keep the box upright: chocomintchou noted that the heavy pastries could get squashed if carried carelessly.Tistory+2
