Ladurée// Seoul Korea//
Visiting South Korea and want to have a taste of the finest French macarons in the world?
I wouldn't even be surprised if the name Laduree comes to your mind.
My sister and I have been dreaming of visiting a Laduree store one day so when we found out that we're traveling to Seoul, we knew in an instant that we have to take this opportunity of visiting the one! It was quite a long commute but it was well worth it!
How to get there: Ride the subway and alight at Express Bus Terminal Line 3. Once at the exit, look for and follow the signs that lead to the Shinsegae Department Store. (*There are two Laduree shops in the mall but I suggest you go up to the second floor because that's where the actual store is located. The one in the first floor is just a small macaron stand) Once at the 2nd floor, you'll see a roster of luxury stores -- Celine, Chanel, Miu Miu -- just keep walking until you see the Laduree store.
They have a variety of flavors to choose from:
Rose (the bestseller), Pistachio, Strawberry, Lemon, Chocolate, Coconut, Hazelnut, Caramel, etc...
You'll see all sort of fancy things in the store like keychains, and candles. The prices are quite unreasonable so I didn't bother purchasing anything from the non-food section.
We got a box of 8 macarons which costs KRW 28,000 (Php 1,120 or Php 140/piece)
Upon leaving the store, I felt like I was taking a home a piece of heaven with me. Haha!

So the question now is...is it really as yummy as people describe it to be? Does it feel like it's the food of angels? Well, there's only one way to find out! Don't forget to subscribe on Bloglovin'.
