HOLY CRAAAPPERS! This place is the gem of distillery district. As white girls ran pass me to take Instagram shots by the love wall, I ran the other way towards the delicious smell of baked goods.
The girl working there with the pretty tattoos is super friendly! She gave us one macaron free of charge because one of the ones we bought had a small crack in the shell. Macarons are a pretty decent price- $10 for 6! I tried every flavour except for vanilla since I don't like it. My friend tried the vanilla one and died over it. He said it's the best macaron he's ever had and actually ran back to the store to buy another as we were already walking to the car. He wouldn't shut up about it for about 10 minutes after we got back on the DVP to go home.. He said it tasted like vanilla ice cream jammed into a macaron. The others were flavourful as well. Don't you hate when you attempt to only eat one macaron because you're an adult who can control themselves, but you end up accidentally stuffing your face with all of them and then hating yourself after? Because same. I really enjoyed the pistachio one! Mmm. So good. Some of the macarons were lacking in the chewiness department (the macaron consistency) but they were still really good. I didn't get to try any of the other treats offered because I was already bursting from dinner. It will be a 'must-do'!
I'm definitely going to make this a staple every time I come to distillery from now on.
