| - I don't quite understand why Bouchon Bakery is located so far away from Bouchon restaurant; the bakery is on the casino level underneath the escalators right in front of the old Phantom theatre. I've been here twice and I still like it far more than the Beverly Hills location.
During my last trip to Vegas in October, we came here spontaneously after LAVO Brunch. They have various desserts, including giant and mini macarons, giant cookies, cake, and other pastries. Currently, if you buy 5 giant macarons, you get one free. It's obviously a better deal than the box of six mini macarons, but the mini ones definitely look a lot more appetizing.
After much contemplation, I got a box of six mini macarons for $15. The flavors included were pistachio, pumpkin, vanilla, sea salt caramel, and coffee, which were all very, very good. Amazing flavoring, texture, and consistency; the outer egg-shell like crust was perfectly thin, airy, and the inner had a soft, almost meringue texture. Hands down, the best macarons I've ever had, and they were still really good in the evening after leaving them out of the fridge for the entire day. They were so good, I finished all six in one sitting...
If you're looking for delectable macarons in Vegas, come here!
