| - I love the Macarons from AG (Queensway location)! As we know, the city has no shortage of excellent macarons, but what sets AG apart from so many others is that their bakery (and is it ever a spiffy looking bakery) is on site, right behind the counter. The macarons here are always super fresh, never stale; and they have a good flavour profile. I'm always disappointed when macaron shops carry limited and predictable flavours. AG certainly does not disappoint with its range of tart and sweet choices. They temporarily carried a lime mojito macaron that was just spectacular. They also have Sloane teas on site and offer macaron making classes. The shop itself is small, but super cute. AG is located on a somewhat seedy, busy strip of the Queensway, east of Royal York, but don't let that stop you if you are in the area. Service is always friendly and the price is the same as what you would expect to pay for good macarons anywhere else in the city.If you live downtown it is a bit out of the way (and to be truthful, not worth the trip if you are closer to Delysee or Nadege). However, AG did recently open up another location on Dupont Street, but I'm not sure there is a bakery on site at that location. For anyone in the west end, you have no excuse to not make a stop at AG!
