When my family and friends found out I was travelling to Paris and the Amalfi coast before arriving to Firenze, I got a list of all their favorite places to eat. Ladurée was the one many mentioned as an elegant tea spot I should not miss for their soft perfect macaroons. Okay so they became my Parisian addiction, every time I saw one of this shops I stopped to buy one. Somewhat pricey for their small size but definitely something that’s worth the splurge. I first tasted their Pistachio one, amazing! It just was just what my friend Evelyn would rank as THE perfect macaroon, soft with a surprisingly chill feeling, and a perfectly round double crust in the cookies edge. Then the list expanded to Mimosa, Pineapple, Banana, Chocolate and so on…though Pistachio kept being my favorite. I tasted other macaroons from other places throughout Paris but none kept satisfying me after having tasted Ladurée’s. I was happy to see a Ladurée mini cart in the Odeon airport, one last taste of the perfect Parisian macaroons…ahhhh!!!
