I'll have any macaron. Is there really such a thing as a bad-tasting macaron? How bad could it be? It's just like tasting jelly bellies. I like them to surprise me... Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Food always looks so appetizing in France. The French seem to have a way of presenting food and desserts that are very pleasing to the eye and these macarons are no exception! Striking display!! :)
Well it looks like mes amis have very different tastes in macarons. That's as it should be. And for the record, I love just one at a sitting and lean towards my friend Alain's tastes.
As I don't generally eat sweet desserts I've only had one & it was at Dalloyau across from Jardin du Luxembourg...They are a little institution, aren't they?
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Are all macarons displayed like that, like little Christmas trees?
I want chocolate, raspberry, and peppermint. Oh, and caramel.
Je préfère la framboise!
Pour ne pas etre embrouillée par l'embarras de choix, c'est toujours le caramel au beurre salé pour moi. Miam, V!
Caramel beurre salé SVP merci, hum, miam, délicieux

I'll take one of each, thanks!
I NEED one of those now with my coffee thank you! F x
Pistachio or chocolate pour moi! Though i think i could 'force' myself to try any kind. They look so very yummy!
Be still my beating heart! I can taste them over here! And oh! So very, very pretty!
One can never go wrong with any flavor, but caramel beurre, pistache, and chocolate/fleur de sel would make me very happy.
A little bit of confectionary heaven, right there in gay Paree.

May I have one of each, please?
I love the macarons towers in the windows of the Parisian pâtisseries. My favourite flavour is pistache.
Moi...one of each (but not all at once)!
Miam, miam! I like the reflections too!
Believe it or not I don't like macarons... too sweet...
The last time I went to buy macarons for friends at Laduree's they were 7 euros a piece!
