BASTILLE DAY NYC 2011!
Yesterday was BASTILLE DAY NYC 2011 and yours truly was there bien sur.
MACARONS made a major showing this year!!One wonders if LADUREE will participate next year 2012???
Mad MacNYC always has the best deals - I bought a whole flat of 48 macarons for RESEARCH PURPOSES! I am about to MAKE MACARONS chez moi PBers!It's true.
Pls. pray for moi I'm begging you.
This will be way harder than resolving FACEBOOK.
FACEBOOK CONTEST WINNERS will be announced TOMORROW!
MacarOn Cafe was there....
With a huge number of flavors...
Even Patisserie Poupon from Baltimore showed up with 6 macs for $6. Financier did not bring their macarons - I don't know why?
Remember dear Bosie Tea Parlor - they had macarons.
It was TARTE City.
Financier's tarte au framboise pistache...
Neck-and-neck competition from Payard Bakery's tarte au fraise...
Plus lecons how-to-eat-a-tarte au fraise...
Regarde! Will even PIERRE HERME be coming to NYC soon and show up at annual Bastille day?
This year's Bastille was more Frenchie and less quelle ordinaire street fair stuff. Ode a la Rose is brand new - a kind of Au Nom de la Rose for New York with lovely bouquets.
Wines of Provence had fabulous pink color swatches to match all these varieties of Rose - the only wine Parisians like to drink in summertime...
Le Palais des Thes gave out free tastes of tea.
I LOVE Les Caneles de Celine's lime caneles (lemon and pistache too) and tiny pistache financier- so crispy.
I hope she opens a shop soon but you can order online...
Bien sur there were savory things to eat like merguez and this tomato tarte.. 
PLEASE come next year to New York's Bastille day!
THANK YOU PBers for all your GREAT FB suggestions!
