Hey dudsons,

Today was yet another regular day; nothing much happened in particular that was especially interesting.  Just school, school, and school.  It was also raining today, so I guess that made me in a glum and cranky mood.  Rain, rain go  away, please come back another day.....

Well, I was reading my friend Sabrina's blog for an inspiration for today's blog, and she was writing about where to get green juices around Vancouver.  Well, that's cool, because now she gave me inspiration so I know what to write now.

Today I will be writing about where to get macaroons in Vancouver.  I love these delicious little cakes, especially when there are many varieties and flavors to choose from.  In case you do not know what a macaroon is, they are a type of small Italian circular cake, typically made from ground almonds or coconut, with sugar and egg white.


                                       

1) Soirette

Soirette is a pastry shop situated in the Coal Harbour area of Vancouver, BC.  Indisputably, they serve macaroons, but also they serve exquisite teas.  Macaroons are becoming a "hot" snack right now, and Soirette's macaroons are reported to be the best in town.  It may be on the pricey side, but on the bright side, they are surely delicious.

Address: 1433 W Pender St, Vancouver, BC V6G 2S3.

2)  Theirry 

Award-winning pastry chef Thierry Busset owns this renowned little patisserie/cafe, so it's no doubt that this one will  be a winner.  Even Gordon Ramsey once praised Busset, "one of the finest pastry chefs in the world".  Anyways, this cafe not only offers coffee, croissants, chocolate eclairs, but unique and flavorful macaroons.  So that's kind of cool, if you just want to go there for lunch and grab macaroons for dessert.

3) Thomas Haas

This place may be well-known for their chocolates, but they are also famous for their yummy macaroons.  They have really exotic flavours that you just have to try, such as kalamansi and champagne.  But, if you're on the tamer side, just dig in for the old classic chocolate or vanilla macaroon.  You can never go wrong with that!
