Oh what a shame about the macarons.. The flavours sounded intriguing though. Your description of the 2000 Feuilles sounded Mmmm Mmmm.

I don’t mind you making comparisons to Tokyo.. it gives us readers perspective

Hi bowb-That’s a lot of restraint! I don’t think they would have lasted until Eurostar (well we bought them a few days before returning to London so that’s our excuse ). Sounds like good memories!
