La Bamboche
Saturday morning, in the middle of thundershowers, Alexandra and I travelled to our favorite pâtisserie. Located at 4 Manor Road, just north of Yonge and Davisville, La Bamboche was just what we needed to lift our spirits.
Master pastry chef Stephen and two lovely young ladies behind the counter welcomed us and our iPhone cameras to a tasting of delectable treats. Our choice of two macarons would be the perfect pair to a creamy laté. French macarons -not to be confused with coconut macaroons- are almond meringue cookies. Crisp on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with flavored buttercream or chocolate ganache sandwiched in between. They make us swoon with each bite! If you’ve never tried a macaron, you must!

Monday afternoon, Alexandra and I will draw the name of one person who has subscribed or posted a comment to Lemon & Citron.
Thanks for your love and support.

Great to hear from you.
I would love for the three of us to visit La Bamboche. It’s right up your street! Looking forward to re-connecting.
Stellar job Alex, what are you doing at i-school?!! You should be part of Food Network channel!
