Macaron Mania

The new Ladurée shop on Madison Avenue has finally opened to much excitement and long lines.  I stopped by at about 10:00am after the Tory Burch store preview and it was the first time that I could snap a few photos.  The shop is filled with beautiful pastel colors and old artwork that are just as yummy as their famous macarons.  They really are the best and melt in your mouth.  My favorite flavors include caramel, coconut, pistachio and rose. They are planning to open a tea shop in Soho next but until then, I highly recommend visiting early or packing your patience.  The good thing is that they are definitely worth the wait.

Ladurée is Landing in New York!

There were rumors a few years ago that Ladurée was opening a shop in New York but now apparently it's actually becoming a reality!  Thanks to my Twitter friends, I was alerted to the news that Ladurée will be opening at 845 Madison Avenue in July.  I am so excited that I might have to start working out now in preparation for all the macarons I will soon be enjoying.  Oh la la!
