I stumbled upon this store's instagram and decided to Yelp it. The reviews were glowing so I had to come check it out myself! I took the 1 and a half hour bus ride from Scarborough to the tiny little shop right at Bathurst and Dundas. Was it worth it? If there was a response that expressed "yes" more than "yes" then....Yes! The owner had car troubles so opened the place about an hour late, but the extra waiting did not dampen my experience there. She is a very friendly lady who's down to earth; her enthusiasm is infectious. :)
There were only macarons for sale that day in terms of baked goods so I decided to get 12. Two of each flavour: uji matcha, yuzu honey, HK milk tea, milky earl grey, black sesame and lychee raspberry. The uji matcha macaron is ON POINT, I liked this one more than Butter Avenue's. The earl grey, black sesame and lychee raspberry are also delicious. I have yet to try the others but if they're anything like the previous ones I've tried then I'm in for a treat. :)
What really made my experience amazing was Steph offering me a free cup of warm peaches and cream white tea and a free matcha macaron for my troubles. That really brightened my day. The packaging on everything is also very very cute (I love the teatime cats).
I am 100% going to return to this awesome little joint to try some of the cream puffs, cake and matcha latte!
