I really wanted to try their waffles but it was getting too close to lunch time. I purchased a dozen macarons to take home. I also really wanted to try their cakes, but I couldn't take home.
I gave a dozen macarons to my friend when I got home and she really enjoyed them.
I wish my French was fluent to express my gratitude to them with more words. I was really stressed at that time. Been surrounded by so many colorful sweets and their friendly smiles, they helped me become less tense. I left the shop with smiles, all I could say to them was "Merci beaucoup".
