Update! Savorique has found fantastic Macarons! Get them here.
Once in a while I come into a great food store worth mentioning on this blog. This weekend I passed by a very nice looking store on 23rd St in New York. I have been meaning to enter for quite a while, but was always on my way to something else. That time, I chose to stop and spend some time there. I was rewarded by incredibly fresh and yummy macarons.
La Maison du Macaron is located at 132 West 23rd Street, around 6th avenue. As soon as you enter, you feel like you stepped into a quiet living room from the bustling street. It’s a very relaxing place, with an upscale plush feel. They serve coffee and pastries, as well as many flavors of macaroons. I chose all kinds of berry, fruit, and chocolate flavors, but my favorites were Cassis and Sea-Salt Caramel. They’re not cheap at $2.50 a piece, but very much worth it!
