Lemon Meringue Tart

By far, this was our favorite sweet of the day.  It’s not just lovely.  It was seriously good.  The raspberry was gorgeously fresh, the meringue was perfection touched with the toasty darkness of a roasted marshmallow and the lemon cream was light and refreshing.  We would have liked a bit more lemon bite… maybe a touch of zest to add some sweet/tart pucker.  Nevertheless, we loved it.

The Matignon
(Chocolate Mousse Cake)

The chocolate mousse cake was a pretty little sweet treat, too.  Wrapped in thin ribbons of dark chocolate, light chocolate mousse was separated by very thin chocolate cake layers.  This cake is roughly 80% mousse, 15% cake and 5% ganache icing.  In the end, we both admitted to secretly wishing we’d gone for two lemon meringue tarts.

Almond Croissant

Thin, crisp layers wrap around the exterior of the croissant.  On the inside, moist layers with a delicate chew are buttery rich.  Unfortunately, the almond filling is quite bland and used far too sparingly.  There is almost no almond flavor on the inside.  And, the texture is reminiscent of a gritty pastry cream. We’d be willing to try one of their other croissants.  But, we won’t be getting one of their almond croissant again any time soon.
