Lady Yum Macarons

Leave a comment

Let’s go to the Eastside for once.

I love the décor. I was there to buy macarons to bring to a party but I felt so comfortable in this cute shop that I stayed for a while and had a delicious French press coffee with a chocolate macaron.



I can’t say these macarons were the most delicious macarons I have ever had but overall I enjoyed them. I liked the texture and the flavors, and although some of my friends found they were too sweet, I didn’t.

Did you know there is a Macaron Day? Admittedly, there is a day to celebrate anything and everything now, but Macaron Day is on March 20th. Isn’t it an excellent excuse (if you need one) to go and try them?

Lady Yum also serves Champagne by the glass.

They are open till 10pm, so I may also go back for a “petit sucré” after dinner.

Unique Brunch at Joule

Leave a comment

For a delicious brunch that differs from your traditional American bacon and eggs, check out this place.

We already enjoyed going to Joule for dinner (Joule is a jewel) and I couldn’t wait to try their brunch. And oh my… it is at the same level and it did not disappoint us.

You choose an entree from the menu and help yourself to the buffet. They change the theme monthly for the buffet. When we went in February it was Cajun and I tried all the dishes! Unique, surprising and flavorful!

Sincerely, these guys are gifted. They also run REVEL (Winter Lunch at Revel and Sunday Day at Revel) and opened a new one (TROVER) that I need to check out some day.

It is $17 for entrée and buffet and they also offer a kids option at $10 (eggs and toasts and buffet included).

Brunch on Saturdays and Sundays.

I highly recommend making a reservation.

Espresso To Go ETG Coffee

Leave a comment

 

This is a very charming yet very tiny place. And when I say tiny it is really tiny. There is only one table inside. But on a sunny day, you can sit outside on these fabulous vintage chairs!

If you want to take your cup to go, no problem: ETG stands for Espresso To Go!
Think of this place next time you want to take a break from your walk along the Burke Gilman trail, or while shopping in Fremont.
