| cappuccino at le cafeotheque. supposedly the best in Paris, but I wasn't wildly impressed. I prefer the pacific northwest, thankyouverymuch. |
 |
| bad pic, I know, but I just had to snap one of the baked goods. Next time I go I promise to snap one of the counter full of sweets... |
 |
| the macaron box |
 |
| the anticipation is killing me! |
 |
| double chocolate, rose, coffee, cassis, passionfruit with chocolate, creme brulee and another passionfruit with chocolate. |
 |
| food porn! chocolate, rose, coffee |
 |
| some more temptation: passion-chocolate, creme brulee |
 |
| coffee. so delicious! it was creamy, but chewy and sweet but perfectly balanced (worth it for the price) |
 |
| the package inside of the package. weren't we talking about food porn? heh hehe heh |
 |
| wow. this really was the best ham in paris. probably the world. it was perfectly salted with the best savory taste. full of umami. the little piggies were fed acorns, and nothing else I don't think. |
 |
| basically everyone (Ina Garten, Dorie Greenspan, me) agrees that their bread is the best in Paris. it is. I don't even need to try all of the other bakeries. I just know. |
 |
| the best butter in paris, bought from a fromagerie (cheese shop) (with flecks of salt from normandy!) |
 |
| look at my crust!!! |
 |
| the best bread in paris for the best butter in paris. yes, in that order. |
 |
| I used to, when I was younger, think that this was a gross combination. How wrong I was. With the last melon of the season.... superb |
 |
| pierre herme, matcha green tea and azuki (red bean) paste sammiched between matcha macarons. |
 |
| terrific. of course :) green tea balanced out the sweetness, texture (crunch of the macarons, dissolve-ness of the cream, subtle grainy-ness of the beans...) |
