If you've ever dreamed of wandering into a Parisian patisserie, this charming little gem is about…read moreas close as it gets without a passport. The space itself is chic and impossibly cute, a mini cafe that feels like a hidden boutique find, quaint in all the right ways. The croissants are the genuine article: buttery, flaky layers with that perfect golden exterior that only comes from someone who truly knows what they're doing. Every pastry here is crafted with care and it shows in every bite. And the mocha coffee? That alone is worth the trip. Rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced, it pairs beautifully with anything in the pastry case. The staff are warm and genuinely welcoming, making the whole experience feel personal rather than transactional. One thing to keep in mind: this is not a drive-through. It's a small owner-operated cafe where everything is made with intention. Come with time to spare, settle in, and let the experience unfold. Good things take time, and here that philosophy is baked right into everything they do. Yes, prices lean a bit higher than your average coffee shop, but this is quality you can taste. You're paying for authentic French technique that honors the tradition. La Princière is a Thousand Oaks treasure worth every unhurried minute.

If you live far from Oxnard, CA, like I do, you can find them at Monsieur Marcel Gourmet Market, Bistro & Seafood Market located within the Farmers Market at the Grove on Fairfax, located on 3rd Street in Los Angeles, CA, near the Palazzo and Park La Brea apartment complexes and the Holocaust Museum.

In case you missed this: http://www.yelp.com/list/the-great-socal-macaron-throwdown-los-angeles-2…read more Whether or not "Food Item A" is better than "Food Item B" is generally a matter of personal preference. We all have varying degree of taste. Most reviews are written based upon our limited exposure, and therein lies the dilemma particularly with regard to the Parisian Macaron: Does one rate based upon limited knowledge and what's relative to personal likes and dislikes? OR...Does one rate based upon accuracy and adherence to authenticity? Guilty as charged, I have written reviews based upon limited exposure and preferences on a myriad of food topics, but when discussing the macaron, I would like to believe I speak with some authority, however, I respectfully defer to Fia R. who I deem Queen of the macaron. While performing a macaron search for the Los Angeles area, yelp returned a curious business with a 4.5 star rating: Les Macarons Duverger...in Echo Park of all places! Finding out the hard way that LMD (reference henceforth) does not have a "Brick and Mortar" storefront or physical address to refer to was frustrating. The address associated on yelp was erroneous and refers to a business that at one time sold these macarons but discontinued their sale. LMD is based out of Culver City, CA. The discovery of Monsieur Marcel at The Original Farmers Market as a local reseller excited me. MM was close enough and I didn't have to wait for a particular hour of the day at a given location just to try these macarons. My desire to try their freshest offerings prompted me to email LMD. Their swift response highlighted the fact that MM receives deliveries twice a week and that their supply is indeed fresh. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4DgEBxFNn7JtKKNc9830Ig?select=-QM2NdY8EjcZ-EHAODuzRw The purchasing power of your $19 yields one dozen macarons of a variety of flavors. Among the flavors included: (2x) Blueberry Lavender, (2x) Vanilla, Pistachio, Raspberry, Praline, Chocolate, Passion Fruit, Coffee, Pumpkin Pie, Salted Caramel. (For the record, LMD's macarons are not as vivid as my photo depicts. The linked image above was captured with Pro HDR and manipulated. They are much more pale in person.) My review can be summed up in a single word: Disappointment. ***BEGIN USELESS RANT*** Attention yelpers who rated LMD 3+ stars: You have NO idea what an ideal macaron is...especially if you claim to have tried 'Lette Macarons and likewise claim LMD's to be better. 'Lette's macarons are the closest you will find to an authentic Ladurée macaron here in the Southland (and the west coast for that matter). So to all the inexperienced macaron enthusiast who gave great ratings, here's a hint...great macarons ARE NOT brittle and dry as these. ***END USELESS RANT*** LMD's fragile macarons were anemic with paltry ganache fillings sandwiched by parched cookies. Refer to photos below: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4DgEBxFNn7JtKKNc9830Ig?select=ctOMJkvF_AqNwY4ly3XfIQ http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4DgEBxFNn7JtKKNc9830Ig?select=oJOsgOJ_hpffazLrc97x3A http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4DgEBxFNn7JtKKNc9830Ig?select=d8neatJbJ_WhagVXIBU5Yg http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/4DgEBxFNn7JtKKNc9830Ig?select=S5IyLrDnzwZYC952HICtGQ Blueberry Lavender: 2.5/5 Vanilla: 2/5 Pistachio: 2.5/5 Raspberry: 1/5 Praline: 1/5 Chocolate: 4/5 Passion Fruit: 1.5/5 Coffee: 2/5 Pumpkin Pie: 1.5/5 Salted Caramel: 2.5/5 Chocolate, Salted Caramel and Pistachio were the only macarons with a moist cookie (thank heaven). They were, however, not exempt from the same issue of exiguous ganache. As I conclude this review, please let it be known that it is my sincerest desire for LMD to succeed and prosper. It is imperative that adjustments be made because in its current state, LMD's macarons are inferior and disastrous. Please correct your technique and be generous with your ganache filling. 1.67 stars (rounded up to 2)

GETTING HERE:…read more Located in DTCam. on Ventura Blvd. between Carmen and Arneill. I think street parking would be your best bet, however, you can drive up the side street near the residential areas if needed. Look for the 999 Pizza place. REVIEW: First timer to the location in Cam! To know me is to know that I am obsessed with their brown butter toffee cookies. I have been known to clear out the inventory at the Ventura (mall) location, #sorrynotsorry. They are THAT good. Trust me. So, this order was to go, but the inside seemed airy and open, loved the open vibe. There's a good amount of outside seating too, so if that's your preference, I would choose that option. (It's better than sitting outside at the Ventura Mall location, IMO). The employees were basic, that's OK. I don't expect much in 2026. No pics as the cookies were packed away in my bag asap. But, I'll be back! It was a fine-enough visit. Thanks!

I didn't want to take away from the matcha flavor so he gave me regular vanilla cold foam despite it not being on the menu! The drink was a-bit too sweet at first bc the syrup sat ar the bottom but after really giving it a good mix, you get an amazing sweet matcha latte. Considering that I've had so many matcha's across IE to LA, this place is decent for the location! Would come back if I'm in the mall!

The Golden Saffron was unique and really smooth with a warm flavor you don't find at most coffee spots. Even the mocha tasted balanced and actually like real chocolate and espresso, not just sugar.

Even at our tasting when we were running super late she still boxes up samples for us to try, which were all delicious! We can't thank Lesley enough, we got so many compliments on the aesthetic and the taste of everything! She was super easy to correspond with and being that I was planning everything mostly on my own everything was done smoothly and seamlessly! Her pricing is very reasonable and definitely worth driving over the hill from the Westside, especially if your venue is close to their location! Thanks Lesley!!

Let me just say, I'm a big fan of Frost It!…read more My hubby & I started coming here for their amazing cupcakes when they opened. Quickly, we became regulars. I can't even name all the flavors that we fell in love with, but red velvet, lemon, strawberry, salted caramel & chocolate peanut butter just to name a few. We were sad when we found out that they were transitioning from a cupcake store to a by-appointment cake shop, but I understood why. My husband & I vowed that when we got married, we would use them as our wedding cake baker. So, when we decided in July 2015 that we were getting married, we set out to make an appointment in a few months. Our appointment was scheduled for June 2016. Our friends who were visiting us, one of them was a bridesmaid, came with us for our cake tasting. My bridesmaid also paid for our wedding cake as a gift! I was blown away at such an extravagant gift ($800+)!!! We ordered for a 3 tiered ombré cake based on our wedding colors... sapphire, emerald & turquoise. The cake was supposed to be sapphire on the bottom tier & slowly transition to emerald & transition to turquoise. The flavors we picked were lemon, white velvet & chocolate. The cake was beautiful, but not quite the ombré cake I was expecting. There wasn't a seamless transition in color, which is what ombré cakes are known for. The flavors were right, but were not on the their assigned tiers. I didn't bother to complain as we were already on our honeymoon when we realized that our cake contract didn't match the cake we actually got. The cake was beautiful & delicious, so I didn't care at that point. Unfortunately, many guests didn't get the chance to even try out me cake as the cake cutting didn't happen until much later in the night & it started to get very cold. The venue saved most of our cake & we took part of it to eat with our of town family leaving the next day. They all commented that it had been one of the best cakes they've tried. So, nonetheless, I was still happy with the cake, even with the mistakes & that is my reason for 4 stars & not 5. Check out their Instagram page, you will get a much better idea of the kind of cake artistry they are capable of. Beware, you'll get hungry looking!

I was excited to try Hibye Coffee after seeing all the positive reviews, but unfortunately my…read moreexperience didn't live up to the hype. I ordered an Americano, and it was served extremely hot with a burnt, bitter taste that overwhelmed the coffee. After my visit, I looked through more of the recent reviews and noticed that several customers had similar concerns about the quality and consistency. As someone who enjoys specialty coffee, I also didn't get the impression that the coffee program reflects what I'd expect from a true specialty coffee shop. If you're looking for excellent specialty coffee in the area, I'd personally recommend Café Sapientia in Oak Park, Longevity Coffee or Five07 Coffee Bar in Thousand Oaks, and Bonibi Coffee or Stir in Westlake Village. Everyone's taste is different, but based on my visit, I don't see myself returning.
