When I first stepped into the Ladurée shop on Champs Elysées, and smelled the macaroon-scented air, I knew it was a special place.

Nestled between Louis Vuitton and and a street side cafe, this bakery now restaurant has been serving guests it’s magnificent treats and a full french menu since 1862, the Parisian tea salon is perfect for a family gathering, small rehearsal dinner, or a bridal shower.

The second floor features five cozy finding rooms, dedicated to the French muses, “Paeva”, “Castiglione”, and “Mathilde”.

The boxes that nestle the macaroons make beautiful gifts, or exotic favors for any wedding or shower. Tres jolie!
