Ladurée - miam-miam!

Ladurée

It is probably not a healthy way to start the week, 

but who could resist these lovelies?

Perhaps just share one with a friend.

Les Marquis de Ladurée - papier et chocolat

Les Marquis de Ladurée

Expanding the Ladurée brand beyond the pastries and macarons, Les Marquis de Ladurée is a luxury product dedicated to exquisite gourmet chocolates.  The flagship boutique is found just off Place Vendôme with a window full of branded chocolates.

What you may not notice at first glance...

Everything in the windows other than the chocolates are made of paper.

The chandeliers, the candles, the plates, the flat-ware, the goblets, 

and even the "crystals" hanging from the chandeliers.

Ladurée - un petit déjeuner parfait

Ladurée

a perfect breakfast

After buying a selection of macarons, 

I peeked into the adjacent dining area for a quick look.

You probably notice the ample servings of breads.  

Do not worry as you will walk it off in Paris.

Ladurée -- le petit déjeuner

In June just a few doors from our hotel on Rue Jacob was Ladurée. The room adjacent to the usual sales room was set for le petit déjeuner. It looked lovely and elegant with its crisp linens, roses, and china.

Did we enjoy a leisurely breakfast at Ladurée? Non, we just grabbed a variety of macarons and headed to Église St. Madeleine where we devoured them all on the flower-covered steps. miam-miam!
