A French Affair: Laduree|SOHO NYC

 I’ve been hearing a lot about macaroons and reading recipes for this french treat and was curious to try out this new “it” thing.  Now that the cupcake bubble seems to have burst -Crumbs- sad face! it looks like Macaroons are the new happening in the pastry sweet tooth world. This summer I made a point to visit Laduree in NYC.  This was my first time visiting and trying out macaroons and I was delightfully pleased with both experiences! I made reservations for my sister, niece and I on a warm Friday afternoon through OpenTable.com its free and easy just sign up, make your reservation and your seat is guaranteed.

It was a rather quiet aftternoon at Laduree although there were a couple of people in the dining area, it felt like it was just us at the place.  We opted for the indoor dining room as they also have an outdoor garden which is just as dreamy but a bit crowded.  The decor and feeling inside was too nice to pass up.  I hear this is a great place for brunch which I’m sure is great. We ordered mini burgers with fries (which were delicious) and a salad with an assortment of Macaroons.   I forgot to order tea with my macaroons but everything about the visit was fantastic really, from the service, food and overall experience this visit definitely has me wanting to visit Paris someday.

 Her fancy face!
