Macaron Café -More Than Just Cookies

Looking for a cute place for tea?  Check out Macaron Café. Known for, of course, the French cookie, the macaroons at this cafe have been billed by Zagat as "so authentic they'll transport you to Paris with one bite."  The best part is they're gluten-free and made in NYC.  

Flavors range from basic chocolate and pistachio, to tropical passionfruit and jasmin, to creative sesame tahini and honey lavender.  Feast your eyes on the rainbow colored arrays of cookies and explore the wild variety. 

Chase down the crumbs with a pot of tea.  Choose from herbal and black teas, such as rooibois, green tea, earl grey, and blends like vanilla rooibois.

The cafe also serves breakfast and lunch.  Featuring daily specials, their menu includes croissants, salads, and baguette sandwiches of smoked salmon, chicken, various cheeses, and avocado.  Ingredients are hormone free and organic milk and dairy. 

Seating is limited to stools at the counter by the window or at small tables for groups of 4, maybe 6 at a stretch.
