Nibbles - Macarons from Jean Paul Hévin

Was out in Central today and wanted to get some macarons while I was at IFC. The plan was to have them when I take a break from writing my paper this afternoon. I've had the macarons at Le Gouter Bernardaud and wanted to try the ones at Jean Paul Hévin. I ended up buying two - one raspberry and one bitter chocolate.

Frambois'in and Amer macarons

Couldn't help but take a bite!

Frambois'in:

I think the LGB macarons are a bit too sweet for me, but these JPH ones are good! It wasn't just sweet sweet sweet, like most macarons.

I love basically anything raspberry x chocolate, and the Frambois'in was well balanced. There was a good amount of tartness, the raspberry flavor came through, and the ganache was smooth. The dark chocolate one was yum too (after all, JPH is a chocolatier), and I do like how you can actually taste the nutty almond-ness of the cookie.

JPH has lunch and brunch too in the small seating area adjacent to the shop, but no reservations. Will try it some day, and their signature chocolate drinks!
