While I’ve bought macarons at Ladurée a few times now, sitting down to have tea and savour the goodness of their macarons with a friend is a more sweet experience altogether.
Ladurée Cafe doesn’t have an extensive menu, mostly just macarons, tea, coffee, chocolate and bubblies are offered. However, it is a good place to have a quiet moment, have a cup of beverage alone or with loved ones, as you have one or two macarons.
Instead of having tea, Tintin had a cup of Latte which came with a small block of chocolate. While I chose to have Ladurée’s Hot Chocolate.
We each chose four macarons: Pistachio, Salted Caramel, Raspberry, Strawberry Marshmallow, Vanilla and Chocolate.
I enjoyed my Ladurée Hot Chocolate. It’s luxuriously rich and thick but brilliantly smooth. It was a bit bitter but there was no need to add sugar. For someone like me who has some kind of a limit when it comes to chocolate (I’m not really a chocoholic), the serving of Hot Chocolate was more than enough so I shared it with Tintin’s son, Tom.
