The Banana Punch Monkey (yes, the trending one!) totally deserves its moment -- fun, nostalgic, and perfectly balanced without being too sweet. The s'mores flavor was rich and cozy with that toasted marshmallow vibe, the strawberry lemonade was bright and refreshing with just the right tartness, and the London Fog was so elegant and smooth, with a subtle tea-forward flavor that felt incredibly elevated. Beyond the macarons themselves, the experience really stood out. The owner was so lovely and sweet -- I got to learn about her passion behind the business, and it genuinely made the visit feel special. You can tell how much heart goes into everything she creates. The girl with black hair working there was also incredibly kind and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. All the macarons were fresh, beautifully made, and had that perfect chewy-meets-crisp texture. You can truly feel the care put into both the flavors and the presentation. If you're in Bothell (or even nearby), this place is 100% worth the stop. I'll definitely be back.

Everything looked beautiful and tasted just as good as it looked. I tried the toffee, salted caramel, honey lavender, oatmeal snickerdoodle, and strawberry rhubarb macarons. The honey lavender was light and floral without being overpowering, and the strawberry rhubarb had the perfect balance of sweet and tart. The salted caramel and toffee flavors were rich and indulgent, and the oatmeal snickerdoodle tasted warm and cozy with a cinnamon sugar flavor that stood out from the others. The macarons were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly textured. Definitely one of the best macaron spots locally!

One of my absolute favorites is Ding Dong (a chocolate-forward flavor that's rich and nostalgic, like an elevated version of a childhood treat). I also love the chocolate mint for something refreshing, and the oatmeal flavor has this cozy, comforting vibe that pairs perfectly with tea or coffee. They consistently nail the texture: lightly crisp on the outside with a soft, chewy center. I also really appreciate that there's indoor seating. The last time I went, my parents were visiting, and we sat inside sipping tea and chatting. It felt warm, cozy, and just really sweet. It's not just a grab-and-go dessert spot, it's somewhere you can linger. And every time I've gone, the women working there have been genuinely friendly and welcoming. That consistency makes such a difference. Such a cute little gem in Totem Lake. Perfect for gifting or a small afternoon treat!

They have a great deal going on for $7, you can have a glass of either Brut or Rose, and your choice of macaron. I picked the raspberry lychee rose macaron and the Brut and enjoyed both; they were delicious. The location wasn't busy, so I had excellent service!

That being said Seattle's not one of those locations that specifically lacked in Asian bakeries, but certainly there was an untapped and growing demand for more, and TLJ was one of the ones to step in and fill the void. This location carries all the basic options and more, their cake menu for pre-order shows the entire range of cakes, something I don't necessarily see in some of the other smaller locations I've been to. Cakes depending on the size will run you about $40-80. Average pastries range from $3-8. Hot coffee and tea beverages are available though I haven't tried them at this location, and also some chilled drinks and desserts. This visit out of the purchase I tried the spinach cheese pastry which was a'ight but could've use a bit more filling and the Mont Blanc bread with was kinda like croissant dough baked in a loaf--lovely, flaky with a slight crisp and sweet brush of sugar on the outside. My co-purchasers got more of the whipped cream-filled pastries which weren't really my thing. Like other Asian bakeries they provide trays and tongs for self-service bread and pastry selection, then bring it up to the counter to pay. Cash and card accepted, no seats or dining section in this store.

Perfect combo. Instead of trying to describe it I will let the pictures tell the story. BTW this is exactly how SRW should be utilized.
