I have always wanted to visit the legendary, Laduree and on our last trip to France, that is what we did.
We dined for lunch there and had a magnificent meal and it was some of the best food that we ate, while we were away.

It felt a bit like stepping back in time, to the Belle Epoque era, {literally 'Beautiful Age' } and made me think of what it would have been like in the Edwardian era, where the fashionable people wore elegant dresses and hats.
Everything was really beautiful from the decor, white starched tablecloths, to the gorgeous delicate china, in the most pretty pastel colours and then the delectable food.
I started off with a mushroom tart and then the dessert was almost too pretty to eat ~ an impressive Raspberry Rose Saint Honore, with choux pastry with raspberry cream YUM!
French bakers are the best ... the bread and crunchy rolls, were so good.
Be sure to allow plenty of time for lunch as it is an enjoyable experience, eating wonderful food and sipping champagne as you while away the afternoon.
Have a wonderful week
Hugs
