macaron, mademoiselle?


since my last trip to paris in september, where i visited the parisian bakery, ladurée, i have been been dying to have a macaron.  so, i treated myself the other day to a raspberry, which is my absolute favorite, and a blackberry macaron. every trip to paris must include a visit to ladurée and meanwhile there is always ladurée new york, miette, la boulange, and if you're lucky like me, a local farmer's market.

  1. These Laduree Macorons are absolutely stunning and scrumptious. The vanilla and pistachio are my favs. There's no comparison, but if you can't make a trip to Paris, Chantal Guillon on Hayes st. will definitely satisfy your cravings.

  2. I second Lynh's comment. Chantal Guillon, formerly Paulette (why did it change names?) are the closest replica I've found in the city. Miette's are very good, but are texturally not quite right for me. :) Oh macoron... I may have to venture their today.
