During a conversation with friends about Starbucks’ plan to close all La Boulange stores, we started thinking about where to find the best macarons in San Francisco. After one thing led to another, we decided to gather macarons from the best bakeries in San Francisco and have a tasting competition in addition to celebrating our friend’s birthday!
We gathered samples from La Boulange, Miette, Chantal Guillon, B. Patisserie, Sift, and Tout Sweet and met in Hayes Valley park.
(I also wanted to practice photography :D)

We sort of dived in before actually comparing flavors but everyone’s overall vote was for La Boulange and Chantal, tied for first. I personally quite enjoyed Miette’s 🙂
