| - I've been wanting to come here for a while now since everybody raves about their macarons. I walked in and was greeted instantly, the place is chic and modern , very minimalistic decor. The guy that helped me was very nice & described every kind of macaron they have as well as the tarts and mousses. I bought 15 macarons & a salted caramel latte. i forgot to take a picture of the pistachio, earl grey & dark chocolate but i will describe every one that i bought :)
Pistachio : I surprisingly enjoyed this flavor. Its light & airy with a hint of pistachio flavoring . and that's saying a lot because i normally don't like pistachio macarons.
Earl Grey : Classic flavoring, nothing special
Dark Chocolate : The dark chocolate ganache in between was a little more bitter than i would've liked it to. But it pairs well with the meringue cookie since its so sweet.
Sea Salt Caramel x2: One of my favorite flavors of macarons. Theres a light hint of salt when you bite into the macaron. Caramel is not too sweet, its absolutely perfect.
Lychee Raspberry x2: Heavy on the lychee flavoring like every other bakery that makes macaron. Has a raspberry "jam" ontop of the lychee buttercream. Compliments each other very well
Cassis : Its also called blackcurrant. It's tart which is lovely because the one that i had at Ruelo in Times Square (Richmond Hill) was bitter. And i believe that it was because they put espresso in the jam or around it. i loved this flavor.
Oolong : I've never had Oolong Tea before, but i overall enjoyed the flavour. Its not too sweet but also not a very strong tea flavour
Lemon : LOVE the lemon curd. Very tart and delicious
Raspberry : I enjoyed the raspberry jam, not too sweet for a macaron which is nice.
Matcha : Usually my favorite flavor but not my favorite here. Matcha flavor is very light, not strong enough. Thats my only issue, other then that it's alright.
White Chocolate Strawberry : White Chocolate ganache is a tad too sweet, strawberry jam is ontop of the ganache. I like strawberry white chocolate so i loved it.
The Sea Salt Caramel Latte was not bad , pretty good. Sweet enough, not very strong of a caramel flavour or a salt flavour. I needed the coffee so i enjoyed it.
