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 self control. We picked up six flavors ($17.20).
Pistachio: white chocolate pistachio ganache. With this one, I wished that the pistachio had a stronger flavor.
Gianduja: a classic mix of hazelbut and milk chocolate. The filling was dense, making it feel very decadent.
Almond: almond cream with toasted, chopped almonds. The flavoring was nice but the filling was a bit thick.
Caramel apple: cider, calvados and diced apple in caramel. This not a flavor that I would normally gravitate to, but it was delicious!
Lemon: lemon cream made with lemon juice and lemon zest. I loved the lemon, it was so tart!
What is your favorite macaron flavor?

A macaron tour is a great idea! If I had to pick, I would have the gianduja one as I love hazelnut.
