| - I come here quite often for macarons and cakes throughout the year, as it's one of the best ones in Markham. I feel like other places have decent macarons now, but other places sell more cakes and other specialties, so Ruelo is still one of the better locations in Markham area.
They have a wide variety of macarons, each macaron is different in price, which I find quite interesting. I wonder if some ingredients of the macarons are significantly more expensive than others. Nevertheless, they're still within the $2-$3 range per macaron.
If you purchase 6 items, and you don't have tax! The macaron flavours that they offer here and I recommend are
- Ruelo (if you are a chocolate lover, I'm personally not one, but if you like chocolate, go for it)
- Green Tea Sesame (I don't really taste the sesame much)
- Rose Lychee Raspberry
- Pistachio Raspberry
- Early Grey (Sigh, I wish they would combine it with a non chocolate center)
They also sell delicious small cakes, though they are pretty expensive, about $5-$6 each.
My favourites for the cakes include the green tea red bean sesame, mango almond, strawberry yuzu and the hazelnut.
I personally think the people who work here are quite rude, well coming here ever since it opened, I think they got more rude over the years, they didn't use to be this rude.
I remember coming here when no one knew much about it yet, basically when it first opened and when they offered their high tea set for $10 per person. There was slightly less stuff as now, for instances, the bottom tier did not have salmon sandwiches, but the normal Old English sandwiches they used to have.
