Tea at Ladurée

I've been to both Ladurée and Angelina's, two of the largest and well-known tea salons in Paris, for both tea and lunch and must say that Ladurée is far superior to Angelina's in terms of quality of goods and service. Note: Pierre Hermes has the best macarons, so order a plated dessert instead at either of these salons.

Last week, I took my parents there for tea and dessert. Both desserts were de-lish.

I believe there are 5 Ladurée locations in Paris and at least one in Geneve along the lake. When you go, try the salmon club sandwich served with pont neuf frites. It's a pretty penny but totally worth it.

yum!
