In one word, this place is: amazing. The cakes, the chocolates and its specialty the assortment of flavored macaroons--I tried them all and I can tell of no fault here. I can only say that the macaroons are best consumed on the same day. The staff and the owner are all full of charm, like someone sprinkled fairy dust everywhere. The smell alone is enough to raise your spirits and perhaps being surrounded by such delicious items brings along with it a kind of tickled joy that is contagious. Everyone in the small teahouse seemed to be smiling. The desserts have an artisan look, decorated to perfection. There are a few tables to sit at but most customers were taking out as we did. They had run out of croissants, but we had the pain au chocolat, a box of macaroons (flavors included lemon, liquorice, pistachio and chocolate), and various pastries. They were gone before you could say Xavier Brignon! read more
