After my photography class I was starving and had to eat something before heading back to Jersey. I had been hearing and reading a lot about Bouchon Bakery (I've been spending a lot of time recently looking for places I want to go in the city). And since I was already on the west side I would have to walk right past the Time Warner Center where there is one of the locations. I couldn't resist going in trying it.
There's two parts to the bakery, a sit down section and also a to-go counter with some limited seating. I walked over to go counter and and picked out their ham and cheese baguette sandwich (which I had read about) and also HAD to try one of their famous macaroons. I placed my order and was given my cookie while I waited for my sandwich (which did take a while especially for to-go).
While waiting for my sandwich and since I was starving I couldn't resist trying my macaron. Well let me say it was delicious, I could see why this place is so famous. I don't think I've ever had another macaron before so I couldn't compare it to anything else but it was unlike anything I've had before. This is also not to be confused with the coconut macaroon that I also love, this is completely different but boy was it good. I got the pistachio one and it was delicious, it was so soft and I loved the flavor of it. It was well worth the splurge but good thing I walked back to Penn Station after.
