December 18, 2018 Miam Miam

I can’t even begin to tell you how long this post has been sitting in my drafts, but I’m just finally getting to it. I was first introduced to Miam Miam Macaronerie a while back and stopped by their shop (before they moved to Quincy) while I was in the area. So what are their […]

March 9, 2017 Praliné

Leah introduced me to Praliné a while back, and I almost wished she hadn’t. The French bakery puts out some of the most amazing desserts I’ve had. It’s a good thing that it isn’t closer to me, otherwise I might be 50 pounds heavier and broke. The lemon tart is sweet and tart, a fresh clean […]

February 14, 2017 Maca

This year I want to focus some posts on women run companies. One #ladyboss who is killing it is Malden native, Tamy, owner of Maca. Not only does she make these labor intensive macarons, but she also has a 9-5 job! By day she is a project manager at a financial company and then she makes […]

December 28, 2014 La Maison du Macaron

Our last stop on the NY macaron tour is La Maison du Macaron. You are immediately drawn in by all the bright colors of the macarons in the case! They come in delicious flavors like: pistachio, cranberry, lemon and raspberry. 6 macarons will cost you $17. Other interesting flavors include: lime, nougat lavender, mango licorice, […]

December 3, 2014 Laduree

Laduree in New York makes you feel like you are in Paris. The shop is charming – people are taking photos of all the beautiful pastries behind the glass. I always make it a point to stop here when in New York – they have the best macarons. The shells are delicate and melt in […]

November 25, 2014 Bisous, Ciao Macaron

  My next stop on my macaron tour was Bisous ciao. They have locations in the West Village and on the lower east side. With macarons, you should always store them in the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before you eat them. Sometimes I don’t have that much […]

August 29, 2014 Cafe Madeleine

I was able to pop in to the newly opened Cafe Madeleine on Thursday after work. At 6:30 they were almost fully sold out, a great sign after only being open for 4 days! The space is open and bright, designed by EMBARC studios, the same architecture firm that designed Liquid Art House. I had […]

June 22, 2014 Moochies Macarons

Thursday afternoon I stopped by to see Nina from Moochie’s Macarons – she was doing a tasting of her delicious macarons at Olives and Grace in the South End. Nina debuted two new flavors this particular evening! Moochie’s macarons come in these amazing flavors: pistachio, lavender honey, toasted coconut, Belgian dark chocolate, fig preserves and […]

March 30, 2013 Mei Mei Street Kitchen

Mei Mei Street Kitchen may be one of my favorite food trucks. Their dumplings made Boston Magazine’s Best Dumpling List. And in even better news, they are getting a brick and mortar location (see the blog post here). We are hoping that they are going in to the space that was formerly My Brothers Pizza, […]
