Now you know that my drink is Lemon Drop


Following my previous post on Lemon Drop and after a memorable trip to LA now I have to learn how to make one!

1 part Absoult Citron
1 part Triple Sec
1 part fresh lemon juice
Mix, shake, strain into a sugar rimmed martini glass, et voilá!

Sweet & Sour, like the good things in life... mmmm yellow Diva!

Ladurée macarons now in NYC Upper East Side



Maison Ladurée, the famed centuries-old Parisian macaron shop and now global chain, opened its first US store on Madison and 70th on August 30th and has plans for another one soon in Soho. Visit Laduree and follow them in facebook MaisonLaduree


The small storefront is tastefully French style with a long counter displaying chocolates, the famed macarons, and small pastries and sorbet, while nooks and crevices offer collections of candles, collectors edition boxes, and towers of macarons.

Ladurée, which first established a tea room near the Place de la Concorde in 1862, is said to have originated the French macaron as we know it: not the little round cakes, but the idea of sandwiching a pair with a filling. That happened some 60 ago. Read my previous post about macarons.

Ladurée, 864 Madison Avenue (71st Street), (646) 558-3157, open Monday to Saturday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Sunday, noon to 6. Macarons in 15 flavors are $2.70 each; chocolates, $10 and up; ice cream, $8.50.
