| - I first went into the store a few months ago, but forgot to write a review.
I'm a fan of European pastries! I've been to Paris and have eaten the real deal too. :P
Upon entering, I wasn't impressed because the food was pre-packaged and not made fresh, but the service was impeccably professional by both the owner and guy dressed in a black and white waiter outfit. I got a nice little tour from the owner of the different French regional dessert tables. I initially popped in while walking by just to look, but I couldn't refuse.
I ordered the combo with the big bowl of Angelina hot chocolate served with whipped cream and raspberries and it was 10/10!!!! She was correct when she warned me that the big mug of hot chocolate would be too big so after awhile I was too full to enjoy the rest and forced it down. It came with a couple of cookies and macaroon. My favourite was the Fossier brand Champagne biscuit! I also detest macaroons, but she assured me it's not sweet like how they're normally made in Canada, which was correct.
The prices are okay, but I do feel they're slightly more considering they're not made on the premises, but I guess it offsets the shipping.
My only disappointment was that after I ordered, I asked takeout everything, but was told that her license only allows Angelina to be enjoyed dining in. It was okay I guess. I was walking home in the rain, but was dry in my rain boots, but would have preferred to enjoy it in front of my t.v.
I returned about a month later to buy a box of the Fossier brand Champagne biscuits! :)
I will return for Angelina with friends! :)
