    Wow!! What a nice shop…read more Great spot for chocolates, candies, nougat, gummies, etc. I am a big fan of their gummy candy and nougat. While it is not cheap, it is delicious, and it is packaged beautifully for you to enjoy or give as a gift. Service is excellent. They will likely offer a taste of their chocolate hazelnut spread (think Nutella). If they don't, ask. It is tasty.

    We were invited to dinner by a local family and wanted to bring dessert. We picked the right…read moreplace. The eclairs (in an assortment of buttery yet light flavors of cream fillings) were nothing short of outstanding. My daughter preferred the caramel, my husband the pistachio, and I the hazelnut. But then, 2 days later, I was blown away by a Paris-Brest like eclair -- think éclair shaped sandwich of buttery pastry with almond cream filling sprinkled with powdered sugar and crumbled toasted almonds. I'd return to Strasbourg for that dessert. Back to the night before: both our hosts and we were transported by the Mont Blanc, a chestnut and cassis dessert that was unique in both appearance and flavor. Don't miss it. Our hosts, both French born, said they'd never tasted such a delicious version of that dessert, and that the addition of cassis was unique and genius of this pâtissier. Also, for what it's worth, the elegant woman in the shop was lovely. In short, for the best French pastry in Strasbourg, don't bother going elsewhere.

    This place seems like more hype than quality, but I fell for the marketing and waited in a long…read moreline to get inside to see what was on offer. I went towards the end of the evening near closing time, so the cookies and pastries had already been picked over quite a bit. Luckily, I was here to get a gingerbread man, and I picked out the cutest one ever (see photos)! I've rarely met a gingerbread I didn't like, and this version was a-okay. It wasn't as spicy as I'd like, but it had a nice chewy crunch to the cookie that made the texture quite satisfying. Of course, as is my method, I nibbled off his arms and legs first. I'm not such a fan of the icing, and Gilg's version I found quite bland. It was sweet, but not tasty. My cookie was individually wrapped in plastic which made it easy to reseal to enjoy later. I was able to take a few more nibbles on my train to Paris the next afternoon. And did I mention how stinking cute the cookie was? The little wide eyes and "o" face...just adorable. I could see these making excellent gifts to take home from Europe, if you could keep the cookies from breaking during transit. The other goods on offer looked tasty, but if the gingerbread man is any indication, this may be one of those "all looks, bland taste" type of bakeries. I wish I had tried something else, but my main reason to visit was merely "just okay."

    The most delicious pastries, salads and sandwiches. The raspberry tartlet and chocolate oo-la-la…read moretartlet are not to be missed. Divine!

    I thought perhaps coming to a French store (Strasbourg, FR) would change my mind about Herme…read moremacarons. They taste the same in Tokyo, Strasbourg and LA and that's a good thing. That means the company does not skimp on brand, training, process and product. We tried the Panettone Aux Marrons (Chestnut Panetone) which was very nice, more buttery, less citrus than its Italian counterpart. I tried a handful of macaron flavors with family and friends. Still, hands down this brand of macaron has to live up to the Luxembergerli. A few days later, we had a chance to verify and try a few dozen Sprungli Luxembergerli at the BAS train station and yes without question I still am a fan of the Luxembergerli over the French macaron for its superior quality: lightly crisp yet moist, delicately superb flavors captured in a bite is UNFORGETTABLE. Flavors are still lingering on my palate two weeks later. One less star for price. It's a designer French macaron so it comes with a high price tag. One less star for haughty service. Let me correct myself. Two less stars for service. I found that the staff at this Strasbourg store couldn't care less because perhaps we spoke English (amongst ourselves). It was like asking 20 questions to try something. I've never been treated poorly in any part of France that I've visited. It was clear they wanted to help French speaking customers. Not good for business. Even though they are harder to get, I'll spend my money on Luxembergerli instead. (http://www.spruengli.ch/?lang=en). Quelle dommage. Au revoir Macarons Pierre Herme. J'ai acheté beaucoup des Luxembergerlis. Visits: 1 France, 1 Tokyo, 2 LA
