sacré bleu!!!

okay peoples. i hit the motherload. after my successful macaron purchase at bouchon bakery in columbus circle in nyc, i was on a rampage. look what i found!!!! a few blocks down and around the corner from my hotel, is the macarOn café (emphasis on the “o” because it’s macaron, not macaroon. silly). i nearly cried as i approached the café … i felt like i reached the summit! 18 flavors that day. 18!!!!! i couldn’t believe my eyes. and i still can’t believe it. these macarons were small like the ones in the U.S.ofA. but tasted like the ones i had in france! sooooo chewy and flavorful and juicy and amazing and chewy and flavorful and juicy and amazing and and and … holy cow. so good. best yet, they even deliver throughout manhattan! one of these days … they will deliver to me across the country. i mean, they have to, right? i’m their biggest fan!
below is a photo of my pack of 6. flavors from left to right: passion fruit, honey lavender, créme brulée, chocolate coconut, pistachio, and lemon.

i. am. obsessed.
